Recruiting, hiring and retention strategies are all over the place. Recruiters are stressed out and candidate resentment continues to grow. One thing that never changes, is the need for a positive candidate experience. 

Year after year, whatever the world looks like, Talent Board’s candidate experience research shows that sustaining a quality candidate experience is difficult for companies big or small across industries. However, the building blocks of a quality recruiting process and a quality candidate experience remain unchanged. Ensuring that consistent communication and feedback loops are delivered is critical in today’s competitive landscape. 

We control the candidate experience dials: the technologies we use, the processes we run, the communications we send to candidates and the timeliness of them, the recruiter requisition load, and the related hiring resources and support. We see how improving it positively impacts brand affinity, referrals and the business bottom line every year; candidate experience is your competitive advantage.
