Treat candidates well or lose them as future employees and customers

When asked what would aggravate them most during the recruiting process two issues came out on top. Whilst two-fifths (37 percent) said not hearing back from the recruiter or hiring manager would aggravate them the most, over a third (34 percent) pointed to people being rude during an interview. This is particularly important when considering that respondents are often looking for guidance and support from recruiters and hiring managers during the recruitment process, with nearly a third (31 percent) claiming they do not believe recruiters give them the tools and tips they need to land a job.
