ENSURING BEST EXPERIENCE FOR ALL APPLICANTS
Best candidate experience (BCXP) program
Candidate management is time-consuming, quick decision-making in your recruiting processes is absolutely crucial to ensure effective staffing of open positions. There is simply little to no time for most companies to screen every candidate that comes in.
We all know that, many experienced applicants are not born sales individuals, which often leads to poor CVs that do not shed light into their true talent and experience. Often we have reservations on CVs based on bad experiences we may have had from similar candidates, and it is easier to turn such candidates down with a generic email than conducting a quick call, which could be awkward.
Ensuring to make the right decisions
In many cases, bad CVs or bias based on experience can allow good candidates falling through the net.
Digitalisation with recruitment software has taken the pain out of turning down candidates, with a press of a button, generic refusal Emails can be sent out.
Although saving time and trouble for the recruiting organisation, it often leaves a bitter aftertaste with more experienced candidates, especially when the career website boasts of how great the company is and how much people are valued.
Let us be honest with each other, refusal Emails regardless to their nicely worded set phrases about the decision not being based on person, gender, ethnicity or qualification, do not point out why the candidate was not chosen.
Especially with highly experienced candidates, such emails come across as more of an insult than a friendly gesture.
We have many years of experience screening candidates, especially in technical areas and helping them reengineer their CVs, we have seen time and time again, that often companies turn down first class candidates just because of their CVs or on presumptions.
Based on this, we have created our BCXP program giving you the opportunity to screen the silver and bronze medal CVs without draining your resources, allowing you to avoid awkward calls or sending out generic Emails from your recruitment system and offer candidates which do not come into question straight away, a positive alternative, being part of their personal development, and hence capitalising on possible future talent.
