    Emelie Aronsson on: How to create value through a top-class candidate experience

    The candidate experience is so much more than a candidate filling out a job application and going through the hiring steps. It's a psychological contract between the recruiter and the applicant, an exchange, a human interaction. But as employers, we too often forget this when we have our own checklists and evaluation criteria to run. How can you strike the balance between personalisation and structure?  In this episode of How We Hire, our guest, Emelie Aronsson, an experienced recruiter in the financial services space, shares her journey and insights on the importance of mindset, authenticity, and communication in achieving success in recruiting and connecting with candidates.  Key takeaways: Why cultural fit doesn't necessarily mean the right fitHow to make candidates feel at ease during the interview processWhy transparent communication is everythingHow to strike the balance between having structure in your hiring process and adapting to individual needs  Hosted on Acast.
