Talener’s Post

References! Many candidates are pretty nervous about this aspect of the hiring process simply because they have little idea what the new employer will ask and how the old employer will respond. We’ve written a simple outline of how it works right here! #OurBobsJobs #OurBobsBlogs

📣 Your company’s secret weapon for attracting top talent is… ...a good candidate experience. Do you give feedback after each round? Are you transparent about the salary and benefits? Do you answer the candidate’s questions truthfully? Is the recruitment process fast or does it stretch out for months? Your company should focus on the candidate experience matters because: 👉 Respect goes both ways: Candidates invest time applying, interviewing, and waiting for feedback. Be responsive, and kind, and acknowledge their efforts. Remember, it's a two-way street! 👉 Transparency is key: Don't leave them in the dark! Offer post-interview feedback and communicate expected wait times. Ghosting is a major turn-off (we'll continue to say this until the end of time). 👉 Positive experiences = top talent: A positive candidate experience attracts and retains the best and brightest. Invest in a strong one, you'll see the difference. Share your thoughts - what are the essential elements of a good candidate experience?

An unnecessarily drawn out #interviewprocess is a always bad thing. Daniel Callaghan of pre-employment screening firm Veremark, says: “We’re in a perfect storm of worry. Hiring has always been risky but with tight budgets and an uncertain landscape ahead, the ramifications of a bad hire are even worse. Recruiters are just terrified of getting it wrong.” It's imperative that employers work with the #recruitmentcompany who can help them overcome this challenge, offering expert guidance about the importance of an efficient hiring process, backed up by the social proof that they are a subject matter expert who's guidance can be trusted.

Now I am certainly not saying that recruitment is as streamlined as this scenario, gosh, if it was the whole world would be doing it!!! 🌏 However, I am not going to sit there and simmer, I listen, I take note and I act! If the calibre is not right, we will reconvene and start again, but this should be recognised early on in the hiring process 📑 I am here to consult and give honest feedback. You won't be charged anything until a new hire walks through your door, so why not give us a try? 📲 07895 544 397 / 01920 747001 📧 polly@stormx.co.uk StormX Recruitment - Accountancy & Finance/HR/ Office Support Specialist Recruiters #recruitment #humanresources #newopportunities

Isn't it funny how some companies can make recruitment so complicated?

Recruitment should be a relatively simple process, so now is the time to stop overcomplicating things. Let's make recruitment simple again, for the sake of everyone involved. Who knows, you may even end up hiring someone 💡
