" When staffing a new location, industry experience should not be required, " advises Curran of
Acreage Holdings. " A positive attitude, passion and interest in cannabis are far more important
traits to look out for when selecting candidates. "
For Cookies, any retail experience is a starting point. " We are looking for individuals who are
passionate about the plant, come from or demonstrate a deep respect for the legacy market, are
down to embrace the cannabis hustle and desire to be part of the Cookies fam, " Millican adds.
In addition to online job postings, having a presence at local job fairs and cannabis industry events
like MJBizCon is an effective strategy for finding talent and promoting the brand.
" Promoting job openings through communications (and) having a presence at regional industry and
synergetic events is a good way to find persons who are interested and hopefully knowledgeable
about cannabis, " says Drew Stuart, co-owner at the High Desert Relief dispensary chain in New
Mexico. " Over time, we have reduced the 'static' qualifications for employment. We are looking
for positive, intelligent people who can learn and perform their tasks as well as communicate
appropriately with everyone who enters the facility. "
Even after the team is assembled, business leaders and the store management team should stay
open to applications from interested individuals, considering the high turnover rate in retail and
some markets in particular.
" Stay in the mindset that you are always hiring, even when your roster is full, " Stuart adds. " Always
accept resumes and applications, which are then reviewed upon receipt to quickly react to those
who appear very strong regarding previous retail or cannabis experience. "
