Why candidate experience matters?

Image
  Introduction As a recruiter, you probably know that candidate experience is important. But what do you really know about it? How can you improve the candidate experience? And why does it matter so much that candidates feel like they’re being treated well by your company? This blog post will answer all of those questions and more! What is the candidate experience? The   candidate experience   is the sum of a candidate’s interactions with a company, both real and perceived. It’s easy to see how your organization can control the first part: you can provide clear job descriptions, interview questions, and hiring managers who are timely in their responses. The latter half of this equation though is up to a different department entirely: one that most organizations don’t even know they have. You might think I’m referring to your marketing team here; after all, they’re responsible for crafting everything from your social media presence to infographics about what makes you such an amazing pl

  Introduction If you’re looking for a job, you know that the hiring process can be a stressful and lengthy one. It requires patience and persistence on the part of both candidates and recruiters.

If it is a bad experience with an employer that you want to mention, you might end up using the review as a way to vent your frustration and anger.

Chances are, that no matter how right was the other person in pointing out your mistake, the manner in which his/her communication landed on you wouldn’t have made you feel empowered to work towards correcting your error. Hence, like it is while giving feedback in person , it is critical to use objective language along with actionable inputs while posting a review online about any experience. A review about an employer is no exception. Same is the case when you are putting in a po
