Communication is the key to recruit strong candidates

interview process

Sometimes the size of the company, the complexity of the position or the availability of hiring managers can mean the hiring process lasts for several weeks or longer. For particularly motivated candidates, companies may even be able to request an agreement that states the candidate will not interview with other companies until the hiring team has reached a decision.

By failing to follow up with a candidate 24 to 48 hours after a conversation, the candidate may think the company is not interested in their candidacy. At a minimum, be in touch with all prospective candidates on a weekly basis to keep them up to date on hiring decisions and other relevant information.

If a recruiter is required to continually reassure a candidate of interest on the company’s part, it is only a matter of time before trust unravels. When a company puts off making a decision, it increases the chances that someone else is going to pursue or even submit an offer to the candidate.

The more a company communicates its interest and progress to the candidate, the better its chances are of hiring an enthusiastic employee at a price that fits the budget.

The Morning After: 'Sonic the Hedgehog' got rescheduled

Employees and partners are already testing its streaming capabilities. Every Xbox One title will be playable on Project xCloud When Project xCloud debuts, it'll be capable of streaming any of the system's games (including backward compatible ones) out of the gate without developers needing to make any changes. Microsoft also says when a developer updates an Xbox One game, those changes will automatically apply to Project xCloud versions. However, changes to the developer's kit let a game know when it's being played from the cloud to adjust for different types of displays or run multiplayer games on a single server. The teeth, the legs, the teeth, the eyes, the teeth. 'Sonic the Hedgehog' movie delayed to fix nightmare-inducing design Following a statement by director Jeff Fowler that changes are "going to happen," Paramount pushed back the release date three months to give the filmmakers "a little more time to make Sonic just right."

Things to Do Before Going on Vacation
