163. The Power of Candidate Experience in Today's Job Market

Many hiring managers assume eager candidates will do whatever it takes to get the job but I'm here to challenge that notion and discuss how companies should adapt their approach to hiring! Today's job market is candidate-driven and it's time to focus on building your employer brand and showcasing your unique culture to attract top talent, rather than relying solely on candidates.

In this episode, I'll touch on why creating a positive candidate experience is crucial. It can lead to referrals, repeat business, and a competitive edge in the job market, especially for startups and small businesses.

And let's not forget about candidate engagement and relationship building during the hiring process! Sometimes, nurturing potential talent is more important than finding an instant fit. It's not just about what candidates can do for you; it's about treating them with respect and providing a positive experience for them.
