Improving The Candidate Experience
Candidate experience, it can sometimes feel like a moving target to increasingly burdened recruiters and HR Pros, but is it really so far out of our reach?
Last night we discussed how to make candidate experience a “given” for everyone involved and we had an amazing group with Shravan Goli , Johnny Campbell and Steve White ! Someone from every sector weighed in on making the candidate experience golden.
We started with the most obvious question of all. What do candidates really want? HOW can we deliver a solid candidate experience without knowing the answer(s) to that question?
#TChatters Agreed That…
Tech communities provide a valuable service not just for recruiters but for tech talent as well. (Hint: Don’t spam and neglect to provide value!)
It’s not all about recruiting, show your current employees the love too.
Candidate feedback formula = timely + respectful + contextual
InMails may not be the way to a talented techies heart.
Tweets may attract tech talent, but the job description or ad is the real clincher.
