Talent acquisition leaders understand the need to proactively establish relationships with candidates in order to attract and retain the best talent. But being successful requires more than big ideas--in fact, it often comes down to something far more practical: Operations. Consistency and operationalized best practices are critical success factors, and both rely on sophisticated data management and robust back-end processes. In this webinar, Kyle Lagunas shares how to identify the right operational best practices to help your talent organization become truly proactive.

The Candidate Experience
Wake-Up Call
After years of subpar talent experiences, many find themselves haunted by ghosts of
CX past.
CX calls into question many of the talent function’s core competencies.

Who do they trust?
Where can they go when something
goes wrong (or when something’s not
quite right)?

Operational Challenges: What’s Your SOPersona?
The Ghost
The interview process
was extensive and
burdensome, but they
ultimately decided not to
move forward.
They didn’t say why.
It was a complete waste
of my time.
The Scatterbrain
I had an appointment, but
when I got there they told
me to fill out a paper
application
I sat for 30 minutes
waiting for the manager
to meet with me.
She made an offer on the
spot, but I don’t think I’ll
take it.
The Norm
After I accepted their
offer, I didn’t hear from
anyone--not the recruiter,
not my manager, not
HR--for weeks.
I showed up on my first
day and had no idea
where to go.
I worry I may have made
a mistake.

Connect systems
you’re already using
API middleware and 2-way
integrations between the
systems that you’re using
already to have an end-to-end
recruiting workflow.
A true single source of truth
No more data silos. Every
candidate record, every
interaction, every
communication, must live in
one place and searchable by
your whole team.
Improve the
candidate experience
Build a holistic view of your
candidate experience and
manage every interaction from
a single place, from first touch,
to offer acceptance.
Faster user adoption
Solutions must be designed
with a mind for user adoption,
successful implementation,
and shorter training.
