Regardless of the size of the business, HR administration is a challenging job. But according to new research, HR pros at smaller firms have their own unique set of challenges — and rewards.

The folks at SCORE, a nonprofit mentoring organization for small businesses, recently released a detailed graphic of the challenges small firms face in finding and keeping employees happy.

Bringing in new blood tops list

The top challenge: Hiring new employees, which was cited by 42% of small business owners. Rounding out the top three were “growing revenues” (45%) and “increasing profits” (37%).

The SCORE report also revealed that social media will play a major role in small firms’ recruiting process moving forward. In fact, 94% of small business recruiters currently use or plan to use social media for recruiting.
