Effective employee retention strategies are an extension of the initial employee recruitment and onboarding processes - and much of it centres around giving your hires the structure and tools they need to succeed, both in the short-term and the long-term.

Starting in the months prior to probation, and continuing throughout their first 6 months, 9 months, 1 year and beyond, successful graduate and employee retention should be a priority for every employer.

Some of the tips to retain employees include:
► Establish goals together - open discussions about how their career is going so far and how they would like it to develop.
► Book in regular catch ups - both give and gain feedback
► Organise ongoing support e.g. a mentoring scheme
► Give ownership of tasks - challenge and stimulate them for an extended period of time.
► Make them feel valued - employee recognition, whether it be a passing comment in a meeting, an 'Employee of the Month' award - a small surprise can go a long way to boosting team morale.
► Invest in training opportunities - supporting and investing in their learning and personal and professional development, ask what tools they think they need to grow further.
► Allow role development and a clear path for progression
► Offer flexibility - e.g. offering unpaid leave or work sabbaticals if an employee wants to take a break in their career.
► Keep employees on their toes - ensure that they are still being challenged and engaged

Building strong and long-lasting relationships with your new graduate hires is essential to retaining top talent - so follow these crucial steps to make sure that graduates fall in love with your business.
