Closing in on the finish line in this weeks work on Human Resource Standards.

Very concise Discussion in the recruitment Group:
The cool message is: condense the topic of candidate experience!
Don’t get distracted by all the fancy ideas and concepts. Concentrate on basics first.
• Always make sure basic courtesy is applied.
• Confirm applications promptly.
• Say thank you to everybody as soon as you can.
• Don’t use void formulas and refrain from using sentences like „Company Name has a high response time, and so if you don’t hear back from us within x-xx workings days then please consider your application unsuccessful on this occasion“
Sometimes applicants – especially when using mobile tools – may forget, they applied and would not react to an invitation or even not show up to a confirmed interview.
Don’t treat them back the same way. Don’t forget or mistreat any single one person.
