How to compete in a Candidate-driven Market — Part Four

This is part four of “How to compete in a Candidate-driven Market”. Click to read part one, two, and three.
We’ve covered how to attract and how to evaluate candidates. You’ve found what you think might be the one, and you only need to seal the deal. But how to engage with them beforehand?

Engaging — One of your own

It’s important to engage your potential employees and start nurturing them from the get go. Invite them to stay at least one day in the office, and make the interview special and painless. Having interviewing capabilities is ideal to make candidates feel at ease and able to show their personality.

This, in turn, helps you identify topics of interest for the candidate, validate if there’s a cultural fit and if they really want to work for your company. Even if they end up not being The Chosen One, it’s important to create a great candidate experience because, who knows, someone in their network might show up at your door someday, and it sure helps if they come in with a great employer branding in mind. See how it all fits?

Have they blown your socks off? Shake hands and close the deal. It’s time to hire the best.
