5 Recruiting Strategies for Filling Your Funnel Faster

Have you ever actually applied for a job on your careers site? Yeah, I’m guessing from that blank look that the answer is probably no.  Or at least, it’s been a while, if you’re like most recruiting and staffing practitioners. In fact, the only time most end users actually audit the front end of their application tracking system or recruiting software is when a new system is implemented. And even then it was likely only to make sure that it was working.

The thing is – employer branding is the very top of the recruiting funnel. Whether you like it or not, and in companies that survive without dedicated employer branding folks – that responsibility inevitably falls on the recruiters. Look at the reverse side of this value proposition.

In talent acquisition today, we spend a lot of our time focusing on the negative experiences.  It’s an epidemic to recruitment and retention.

The candidate experience conversation seems to accentuate the negative. But what are the meaningful suggestions on how, exactly, recruiters are supposed to fix what’s long been broken?

Thanks to our friends at Jobs2Careers, we’ve pulled together this all-star panel webinar to uncover the top strategies and share their supporting evidence and statistics that will help almost any organization streamline their application process and shorten time to fill.
