Rebecca Gish
Global Employment Branding and Talent Marketing Leader

For candidate experience day , I thought I’d share the experience I had at Kimberly-Clark that is reflective of why our recruiting team has been recognized with a Candidate Experience award – Congratulations, team!

About a year ago, I started the interview process with Kimberly-Clark. I was interviewing with several companies and down to offer stage (or rejection stage – the recruitment process can be tough, right!?!) with a couple of companies when I had my first conversation with my recruiter at Kimberly-Clark. I let her know exactly where I was in the process with other companies. She was transparent about where the company was in their recruiting process, and she put on her super-recruiter cape and seriously went above and beyond to accelerate the process to ensure both myself and the company didn’t miss out on this opportunity. She checked in with me regularly and very quickly after every interaction. This was my first experience of how caring is demonstrated here. My recruiter showed that she cared about me. She cared about her business partners. And she cared about delivering results.

And…. here I am. Loving my team and my role! #WeareKC #theCandes #candexperienceday2021

Heath McNally
Talent Acquisition Lead @ amaysim

Today is Candidate Experience Day #CandExperienceDay2021. Reflecting on my experiences as a candidate over the years, there are a few that standout, both positively and negatively, with some of the most positive experiences not resulting in a job offer but certainly affecting how I myself interact with my candidates.

One particular experience from a few years ago (for a tech company that shall remain nameless) made the experience both interactive and seamless. Having had a few interviews with them, I felt a strong connection with the company from the get go, and the handover from one interview to the next meant I was never answering the same question twice. I’ve certainly tried to replicate that since, and believe a company is never too big to make the experience personalised.

On the flipside, I’ve had my fair share of terrible experiences. It’s the all too familiar story of applying through, even having an interview (and starting to get excited), and then….never hearing from them again…not even a standard rejection email. One such instance was from a massive cloud service provider that made a point to me about how important candidate experience was to their brand. Needless to say it left a bad taste in my mouth. Anyone have similarly good or bad experiences?
