Company: “We’re hiring; we’re People 1st, join us!” Me: “I interviewed 7X, drove to your office, wrote a paper, and then you ghosted me” Company: “Uhhhh….We are hiring, and have amazing snacks and nap pods in the office!” 🚩🚩🚩 Great company culture isn’t ping-pong tables, high-rises, free food, and nap pods. The ‘candidate experience’ is someone’s first exposure to how your company treats people. Prioritize it. If you don’t, it will come back around. #studentvoices #careertips #jobsintech #jobsearchstrategies

Marketing is any and every touchpoint.

A good candidate experience often starts with clear communication and respect for the applicant's time and effort. For example, the post by Adam Broda highlights the importance of treating candidates well, emphasizing that company culture extends beyond office perks to how candidates are treated during the hiring process. This includes timely communication, feedback, and a transparent hiring process, which can significantly impact a candidate's perception of a company.

🚨 Gut check time! 🚨 I’m hiring for an entry-level admin role—7 interviews in, and I’m baffled. Only ONE candidate brought a notebook or anything to take notes. And don’t even get me started on the lack of thank-you follow-ups. This is an admin role—organization, attention to detail, and follow-through are essential. These candidates don’t need to know the industry inside out yet, but I do expect some curiosity and initiative. Taking notes and sending a thoughtful follow-up seem like basic ways to show you're serious about the opportunity. Am I being unreasonable? My husband says I’m overthinking it, but I can't shake the feeling that these small actions speak volumes about mindset and work ethic. Is this a generational shift? A change in workplace norms? Or am I just stuck in my ways? I’d genuinely love to hear your thoughts—especially from leaders who’ve hired in similar roles. What do you look for to gauge readiness and professionalism? #Leadership #Hiring #WorkplaceTrends #ProfessionalGrowth #AITA

Hiring isn’t just about filling a position, It’s about finding someone who can grow with your team, bring fresh ideas to the table, and make a real impact. I’ve seen firsthand how the right person can transform not just a role, but the dynamic of an entire team. It’s a reminder to look beyond the resume, and focus on potential, values, and attitude. What do you prioritize when hiring?

Hiring based on a resume is a gamble. It’s easy to find someone with the right experience on paper, but culture fit and adaptability matter more. - Prioritize attitude over qualifications. - Focus on values over past experience. - Train the skills you need. The best employees aren’t just good at their job—they’re a good fit for your team.
