Job candidates don’t care about an employer’s hiring processes or recruiting tech stack. They only care about one thing: getting the job they applied for. But the reality is, most won’t.

Another reality is, an employer’s hiring processes and recruiting tech stack can make all the difference in the candidate experience. And the recruiter experience. And the hiring manager experience.

Every year in the Talent Board candidate experience benchmark research we find the core competitive differentiator is consistent and timely communication. That’s where recruiting technologies play a bigger role every year – from pre-application to onboarding – even if the candidates don’t realize it or think about it. Of course, the recruiters and hiring managers do think about it and live it!

Join #TheCandEs virtually for a full day of great speakers and technology sessions talking about How Talent Acquisition Technologies Improve Recruiting, Hiring, and the Candidate Experience on September 8, 2022, from 11 AM ET – 5 PM ET.

Speakers and agenda are below, with more coming soon! This event will be virtual and held in the Whova app (where you can attend on your computer, tablet and/or mobile). The virtual conference will be approved for 5 SHRM & HRCI credits for the day as well!
