After the application process and screening, recruiters must schedule interviews with eligible candidates. With many candidates attending interviews, scheduling can become a real headache for recruiters. That's why it's essential for recruiters to find an automated interview scheduling tool.

Most CRMs offer some form of automated scheduling, where you can set your calendar parameters and meeting lengths. Candidates can then choose a time that works for both of you, without the need to email back and forth to agree on a date. They'll receive an automatic confirmation, and the meeting will be added to your calendar.

This allows for quick and efficient turkey mobile database of interviews, without the need to exchange emails about conflicting availability. Interviews are therefore scheduled quickly, allowing both recruiters and candidates to prioritize interviews and maximize their time.

Step 4: Automate follow-up when necessary
You may recall the statistic above, which states that most candidates never receive updates on their hiring status, which can impact their perception of your company. It's crucial to maintain communication with candidates, even if you decide to hire another candidate. A candidate may not be a good fit for that specific position or at that specific time, but they may be a better fit later. That's why you need to maintain a positive relationship with candidates throughout their entire experience.

A great way to do this is to keep candidates informed throughout the recruitment process. If you've chosen to retain another candidate, you can automate emails to inform candidates of this decision. While it can be discouraging to share such news, candidates will be grateful to be informed so they can move on to other opportunities. Even if the candidate isn't joining your team now, they had a positive experience and felt you respected their time. As a result, this candidate may reapply in the future when they're a better fit for your needs.

Recruiters may also consider creating an automated post-interview survey for candidates who participated in the recruitment process. Such a survey can provide recruiters with insights to improve their recruitment process in the future and assess how well they are cultivating a positive candidate experience. Many CRM platforms allow recruiters to automate this process, providing them with information efficiently.

Another often-overlooked opportunity with recruiting automation is outreach when you have a new job opening. Over time, you'll have a sizable database of past candidates, along with information about the type of position they're looking for. You can segment this contact list based on career interests and email the right people when a relevant opportunity becomes available. Note: This technique works best if you've already provided a great first-time candidate experience!
