Experience & Compensation
Having the right candidate experience from the point when you advertise your job vacancy to the stage where candidates get shortlisted and get invited to job interviews is vital to your organisation’s branding. Your prospective employees need to have a good experience regardless of whether you eventually hire them or not. Most experienced professionals would be more inclined to join your organisation if they enjoyed the candidate experience they had during the course of your recruitment process. If you combine a good employee experience with competitive compensation packages, you will stand a better chance of hiring some of the best talents available.
