Is sounds obvious doesn't it?

From our own candidate surveys, networx are more than aware that this is not just  isolated to the few but rather the majority of businesses. It appears that companies both large and small are equally guilty on this issue so why is something not done? Quite simply it's down to resource!

For example, if you are a large business with a successful brand then the administration burden of dealing with hundreds of applications submitted for each and every vacancy, is often the reason why candidates suffer. Whilst recruitment technology is often implemented to generate automatic responses and filter applications, at networx we know that is not enough and the reason why we have been voted by candidates as 'Best Recruiter' for 2 years running.

Working on behalf of hundreds of leading UK Businesses, we acknowledge each and every application, we provide feedback regarding the status of their application, email and telephone candidates on a regular basis whilst providing them with a dedicated point of contact to communicate with when they require.

We understand that if a jobseeker has applied for a vacancy with one of our clients, then they have a positive image about that business and want to be part of their culture. It is only through the unique combination of our technology and our people that we are able to maintain this positive image and often exceed candidate expectations to enhance their perception - regardless of whether they are successful or not!

If you would like to protect your brand and deliver a first class candidate experience that is voted by candidates as one of the best in the UK, then please contact us for further details.
