Since the start of the pandemic, job openings have increased by 35%... but job applications are down by more than that, causing hiring managers quite a bit of stress.
- Simplify your hiring process so candidates go through less of a rigamarole
- Differentiate between absolute hard requirements and preferred or strongly preferred qualifications.
- Be transparent more quickly about pay and benefits
- Be as honest and upfront as possible about the hours, schedule and other logistical elements of the job that might matter to the candidate
- Always speak plainly and avoid jargon or vague terminology
And remember, of course, that working with a recruiter like those of us at Spectra Recruiting Solutions can give your company a distinct advantage.
