THE RECRUITER-CANDIDATE LIFE CYCLE

Anyone who has delved into the job market knows that the competition is tighter than ever before. Qualifications become higher and companies are becoming more selective in choosing the right candidate to be a part of their organization.

Traditionally, for service providers of workforce management solutions, recruiters are tasked to thoroughly evaluate each candidate to ensure their competence for the job.

If a candidate is lucky, he will win the job against the others vying for the same position. However if someone else surpasses him, he gets tossed back to job market.

Candidates who are rejected or does not get the job offer rarely gets a feedback as to why he did not make it. Was it because of the resume? Or maybe he came off as an unprofessional during the interview process?

Recruiters are often busy in finding the right candidate that rejected candidates rarely receive an explanation as to why they were deemed as unqualified.
