48% of global employers report talent shortages as their biggest challenge (Glassdoor) and with the current job market being candidate-driven, it means that it’s not just about you selecting talent, but also about talent selecting you!
Candidates who have a positive experience in your recruiting process are more likely to accept your job offer, bring their business to your brand, reapply in the future, or refer others to your company. So it’s vital that their experience during the whole recruiting process is positive. Anything that improves that experience can tip the balance in your favour in a competitive marketplace.
So that’s why we’ve introduced an exciting new development in the candidate experience management. These are the NEW candidate feedback reports for our assessments
Our new feedback reports have been created purely with the candidate in mind.
They have been written by our in-house psychologists in partnership with our psychometric test authors using language that’s easy to understand and imagery that’s visually engaging for both candidates and recruiters. So there’s no need for lengthy explanations and less need for manual intervention. This has huge time-saving benefits in reducing the requirement for in-person feedback across multiple candidates.
The provision of easily understandable feedback reports to all candidates in a timely manner will help strengthen the candidate experience and enhance your brand image. By offering free assessment feedback as an incentive, you can also attract more candidates into your recruitment process thereby increasing your talent pool. And if the resource burden of giving feedback is restricting the number of candidates you can physically screen, then once again candidate feedback reports can help.
Finally, they can also help with existing staff development. You can use them to provide initial feedback to staff prior to providing in-person feedback. Or you could use them to help improve self-awareness prior to a 1-to-1 conversation or team development session.
Ultimately, candidate feedback reports are all about making assessment feedback more accessible to more people, faster - delivering an enhanced experience for you, your candidates and employees.
We’ve produced a short video showing you exactly where you can find these reports on the Thomas Hub. Or simply visit the Thomas Hub and activate Candidate Feedback Reports yourself!
