Onboarding can be a tedious task for both agencies and candidates.

Enter <\/span>Onboarding365<\/span><\/a>, a next-gen onboarding solution to streamline the onboarding process, created with talent in mind.<\/span><\/p>\n

We caught up with two Bullhorn experts, Ben Carter, Sales and Strategy Director, and James Suett, Solutions Consultant, to learn how to elevate the candidate experience with Bullhorn Onboarding365. <\/span>Watch the webinar here<\/span><\/a>, which includes a live demo, or check out the recap below.<\/span><\/p>\n

What\u2019s happening in the market?<\/h2>\n

Nearly everyone is facing the same challenge in today\u2019s market: the global talent shortage. In our <\/span>2022 Global Recruitment Insights and Data (GRID) Trends Report<\/span><\/a>, recruitment professionals from around the world, across all industries, regions, and verticals, listed the talent shortage as their number one challenge for 2022. When working with candidates, it\u2019s essential to provide an incredible experience to stand out from the competition \u2014 especially when it comes to onboarding, lest your candidates drop off in the middle of the process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

When we conducted our GRID survey, not only did we poll our customers and our partners, but we also <\/span>reached out to candidates<\/span><\/a> \u2014 and we found that candidates want to work with recruiters. 66% of candidates have a favourable opinion of recruiters, and 70% of talent want human interactions during the job search process. However, we also found a paradox: candidates crave a better experience. 50% of candidates have given up on a job because the process took too long, 43% cited poor communication as the primary reason for a poor experience, and 93% of freelance workers say working with online talent platforms is easier. Providing the right mix of digital self-service and the human element is essential to creating the experience modern candidates are looking for.<\/span><\/p>\n

There\u2019s also an additional dynamic at play in the market: four different generations are now part of the modern workforce, with different communication preferences and perspectives. Baby Boomers tend to prefer communicating face-to-face or over email. In contrast, millennials and those in Gen Z are more likely to interact through digital communication channels, such as SMS, social, IM\/chatbots. Providing a mobile experience is essential to engage candidates.<\/span><\/p>\n

We\u2019ve also seen a massive uptick in digital transformation in the past three years. This shift was turbocharged by the pandemic when companies had the opportunity to take stock in their strategy and enhance their digital capabilities. The Bullhorn digital transformation journey mirrors this shift. In the past, our customers have been mainly focused on digitising to deliver better customer service, reduce mistakes, and redeploy headcount. Additionally, automation has been around for a few years, helping our customers minimize manual activity and outrun the competition. Now, we\u2019re focusing on the final piece of digital transformation: empowering your candidates with an incredible experience.<\/span><\/p>\n
