Efficiency is a big deal in recruitment. However, a lot of recruitment processes are severely under-optimized. We can see this in the symptoms of inefficient recruiting.
You need an efficient process for figuring out which candidates don’t meet the baseline requirements for a position. Why? Because many candidates simply won’t.Only around 20% of applicants make it through to the interview stage for any given job. There are all kinds of potential reasons for this, but the most common is that they don’t meet the baseline requirements that they need to do the job you’re hiring for.
Digital recruiting is nothing new, but the tools and techniques that work are constantly evolving. If you aren’t regularly updating your digital recruiting strategy, you’re likely wasting time, money, and resources while missing out on top candidates.
Traditional recruitment typically involves creating a job listing, waiting for applications to roll in, and choosing the best fit. Sure, this method works. But it only lets you target around 30% of the global talent pool—active candidates.
Attracting candidates is easy. Attracting the right candidates is a whole different ball game. According to Indeed research, almost half (43%) of employers struggle to attract qualified, talented candidates with their job postings.
Every recruiter wants the ability to improve their hiring processes reliably. Maybe you want to find better-fit candidates. Or maybe you want to speed up your recruiting process so you can get high-quality talent in seats faster. The point is, there’s always something to improve upon in recruitment.
As more organizations move to pre-recorded video interviews, they’ve gained the benefits of a more efficient process and improved consistency for candidate evaluation—but how do you make sure that great candidates make it through the process?
Adding case interview questions to your video interview software takes time, but the payoff is worth it: You get to assess candidates’ real capabilities at scale, on your terms, and as many times as needed.
