FIRST CONTACT AND USEFUL INFORMATION

Start with a first phone meeting. This way, you can evaluate if the base of a good relationship or even a good communication is there. You can ask him/her to meet you in person for a short interview and ask him/her for references, according to the type of work you need. Among the references, here are some examples :

 

  • Past employers and their contact information;
  • Criminal records and even credit ratings (with the approbation of the applicant)

 

VALIDATION OF THE REFERENCES

With a meeting scheduled, validate each of the references that your candidate gave you. Although this step is major, it is often set aside, due to a lack of time or a confidence excess.  

 

 

THE INTERVIEW

Once the references have been validated, the upcoming of the interview and its great conduct will be a sign of a good collaboration. It will result in a security for your pre-retired or retired, while informing him/her of your needs, your intentions and your expectations.

Beforehand, we invite you to visit the CARRA1 website in order to inform yourself with the different impacts of a full or part time job on the benefits from the “Régie des rentes” when you are going back to work.  

 

ACQUIRE AN EMPLOYER NUMBER       

 Also, to legally act, you need to get an employer number from the federal2 and provincial3 government in order to correctly perceive their diverse contributions and deposit the paychecks.

 At the same time, you can take advantage of your time with your candidate to validate that he/she knows that an income declaration will be done and the salary will be offered according to the withholding taxes and other responsibilities.
