What makes your company stand out to candidates compared to others? Do you offer an exquisite benefits package and work-life balance? Are your pay scales at the top of the charts? Did you make it on a Top 5 list of “Best Employers to Work For”?

Currently, candidates are applying for many opportunities that they normally wouldn’t due to the competitive market, but what happens when the switch flips?

What do you believe your company’s recruiting bottlenecks are?

How are you preparing to source, recruit, and retain top talent?

What is the candidate experience now because when Talent Acquisition Specialists reach out using this same pool of candidates in the future, but the communication was lacking from recruiters, there were instant, auto “no thank you emails” on repeat, or worst of all- they made it to final round interviews and got ghosted- do you think these now highly sought after candidates are going to  remember what their experience was like? Are you making that experience positive and upholding your company’s mission?
