It’s no surprise that 50% of candidates would reject a job offer if they had a bad candidate experience. So what four key things make a difference when hiring overseas? Research says it looks like this…
#1. Updated company information
Sounds simple, but you’d be surprised how things like new phone numbers or new employees can slip under the radar. So make sure all info is easy to find and kept up-to-date.
#2. A seamless tech experience
Before recruiting, make sure your tech and tools are upgraded and easy to use. Your candidate is online full-time, so need to be able to easily collaborate and communicate.
#3. Timely, transparent comms
Even in different time zones, it’s important to give your candidate regular updates so they’re not chasing for them. So be communicative, they’ll appreciate it.
#4. Specific post-interview feedback
Regardless of whether they got the job or not, it’s important to give the candidate specific feedback about wins or work-ons to help them grow. It’s only fair.
