The candidate experience doesn’t just influence your quality and costs associated with hiring top talent, it can set the tone for your employee experience, customer experience and your brand—which is why it’s critical that you get it right. Unfortunately, according to the Society of Human Resource Management, less than 20% of organizations follow up with candidates after they’re interviewed, and with most candidates being rejected from the process, this makes for a damaging experience gap.
With access to our free post-application survey, you’ll get a taste of the research-backed questions to ask your candidates as they navigate through one of the five crucial touchpoints of the candidate experience. To take your candidate feedback to the next level we offer a full Qualtrics Candidate Experience Solution. This solution empowers you with even more ways to measure, analyze and take action to improve the candidate experience throughout the five key touchpoints:
- Career site experience
- Application experience
- Screening experience
- Interview experience
- Offer experience
These touchpoints can be integrated with most applicant tracking systems, as well as connected with research-backed actions for recruiters to ensure follow-up with candidates.
This free survey, which you can access today, gives a taste of the broader solution by providing a template for one of our key touch-points, post-application. The post application experience measures the effectiveness of your first candidate stage by asking about the technology used in the process, expectations, and the overall application process.
