Organisations often say they can’t find the right talent for their current vacancies, even when they receive hundreds of applicants for every position. But do they have the right candidate care practices in place? Every step in your Candidate Care program is important. Posting your recruitment advertisements, phone screening, video and in-person interviewing, making offers to on-boarding creates relationships and opportunities for your business.
If you don’t manage this experience well, you can easily damage your employer brand and relationships leaving people with a sour taste in their mouth when they hear your organisation’s name. Creating positive experiences for every candidate, even those who are unsuccessful, will enhance your reputation.
