One of the most common complaints from candidates that have worked with other recruiting agencies in the past is the lack of communication and overall candidate experience. Here at Loophire, we prioritize making the hiring process as easy & seamless as it can be not only for our clients but also our candidates. The following list are just a few of the reasons why candidates love working with us here at Loophire!
1. Candidates are easily sold on the benefits
Loophire users are often surprised with how willingly candidates agree to participate in the process. Part of the reason for this is that the Loophire training teaches a few simple questions and phrases that really help to get buy-in from the candidate.
2. Candidates recognize the power of the technology
Candidates are becoming increasingly familiar with concepts such as online video interviewing and job profiles, and are building an appreciation for the benefits of technology. As a result, resistance to participating in the process is rare.
3. Candidates appreciate being more involved
Many candidates are accustomed to sending a recruitment consultant a resume and then waiting to hear the result. Loophire, by comparison, is a breath of fresh air, affording them a genuine opportunity to highlight the areas of their skills and experience that they feel are most relevant.
4. Candidates get to look behind the curtain
Because they are involved with the creation of their job profile, candidates have a reasonable idea of what the employer is going to see. This contrasts favorably with traditional recruitment processes in which the candidate is reliant almost entirely on feedback from the consultant.
5. Candidates feel more significant
Instead of just being another resume in the hat, candidates feel actively involved in the process. Additionally, because they’re aware that not every applicant will be asked to complete a Loophire profile, taking this step is a good indication to them that they’re one step closer to a successful outcome.
6. Candidates know the vacancy is genuine
Many candidates are aware that some recruiters are contacting them solely to build a database of names, and that the job opening is fictitious. The Loophire system, however, because it is a more involved process, makes it clear that the role is genuine.
7. Candidates feel more confident about the interview stage
Because employers are presented with a much greater depth of information on each candidate than can be obtained from a resume, they are empowered to only call to interview the individuals that are most closely matched to their requirements. This is a great confidence boost to the candidate because, when they are called to interview, they know the employer has already reviewed their profile and is genuinely interested in meeting with them.
