What’s one big thing candidates want from a new job these days?
Answer: security.
That’s the number one factor on candidates’ minds, especially since many of them may be in the job market because of downsizing.
Stressing your organization’s stability early in the interview process will help you get a leg up on the competition and land desirable candidates. Here’s what you and your hiring managers can do:
- talk about the firm’s growth over the past few years
- point out how many long-term employees you have
- have candidates talk with those veterans, and
- give an overview of a big initiative the company has planned.
