Making job applications can be frustrating. No one has the time to tailor their resume to each role. And, what is worse is that the recruiter is likely to only be hunting for keywords. If they use an application tracking system it will likely have its own approach to matching. The hiring manager will have their own needs. Most companies have a failed recruitment process where many able candidates are rejected through inadequate recruiters and systems. Automation does not help candidates. However, everyone needs to be given a fair chance of review. Unprofessionalism is typical in most recruitment processes. What is worse is when a candidate goes through multiple stages and towards the end the employer is unable to get funding approval for new hires. Not only is it unfair and frustrating for candidates but it also wastes time on both sides. Streamlining recruitment processes is important for every responsible organization as it is the first point of contact for individuals. Bad recruitment processes is a negative reflection of an organizational practices and the way they treat customers. If the individual has a bad experience as a candidate, they will likely be less inclined to join the company as an employee. All in all, bad recruitment processes can affect the reputation of an organization.
