This article discusses how businesses need to emphasize the importance of creating a great talent experience. In order to stay competitive, create an engaging workplace, and attract and retain the best talent, companies need to provide an experience for job candidates and employees that goes beyond just offering competitive salaries. Companies should look to optimize their processes, be transparent across all stages of the hiring and candidate engagement channels, utilize an applicant tracking system to streamline candidate selection, provide feedback on job applications, and look for ways to make the onboarding process more meaningful for new employees. Additionally, employers should look for ways to provide employees with engaging challenges and meaningful development so that current employees can grow professionally. By treating talent as customers and optimizing the talent experience, companies can create an environment that better attracts and retains the best people.
