Why is Candidate Experience important?

Candidate Experience matters today more than ever: candidate referrals are the #1 source of quality referrals for recruiters, and bad press about an employer brand spreads like wildfire online. Moreover, a positive Candidate Experience increases your acceptance rates. Providing great Candidate Experience earns more referrals, better hires, and can earn companies brand loyalty.

Candidates increasingly share their experiences with others. Websites such as TurboHire make the recruitment process very transparent and negative experiences are far lesser than most Talent Intelligence products.
