9. Candidates’ Relationship with
Employers Before they Apply
The majority of candidates (53 percent) claim some relationship at the outset.
There is a clear initial positive pre-disposition toward the employer, which
suggests that positive association is ultimately the employers’ to lose. A
significant portion (47 percent) is left to be ‘engaged’ with content relevant to
the prospect’s decision to become a candidate.

10. Referred Job Candidates
Only 17.6 percent of candidates indicated they were aware of and used
employees within a company to become their “referral.” Of those who claimed
to have been referred to the organization, nearly one-third said they received
and accepted job offers. Of the participating individuals, referred candidates
were four times more likely than non-referred candidates to receive an offer.

12. Communication with Candidates
who are Not Selected
Yet there are still missed and meaningful opportunities for employers to
better understand their processes and the impact they have on candidate
experience. Just one-third said they ask candidates for feedback if not
advanced to the final evaluation phase. The vast majority (90.5 percent) of
candidates said they were not asked to provide any feedback once notified
they were no longer being considered.
