Like it or not, talent recruitment today is in part dictated by the talent and if they don&#8217;t like your process, if you are inconsistent, or if you fail to meet expectations (that you set for yourself), they take it to social media. This influencing of their personal networks poisons the rest of the immediate waters and this means less fish for you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Solution:<\/strong>\u00a0Standardize the process. If this can&#8217;t be done for the entire company, then have minimum standards that each department has to meet.

On your side of things, you are managing 20, 50, 100 applications? However, on their side, they are looking at one: their own.
