“People need a job.” “Our reputation has nothing to do with it.” You’re not losing candidates to the competition. They’re avoiding you. You think it’s the market. Nope. “People just don’t want to work anymore.” They’re the problem, Right? Hate to break it to you… It’s your company’s reputation that’s the problem. You know the one. • The Glassdoor or Indeed reviews? • The hoards of current employees leaving. • That “competitive compensation” you’re so proud of. • The “interview process” that’s more like a marathon? Guess what? Candidates talk. They talk to each other in person, through networking, on social media, and guess what else? They’re talking to your next best hire, telling them to run in the opposite direction… Fast! Here’s the hard truth: • If candidates are ghosting you, it’s not just them. • If your pipeline is dry, it’s not always the economy. • If every offer you send out is rejected, it’s not luck. It’s you. And it’s killing your ability to grow. Try this: • Ensure everyone is on the same page with hiring. • Timelines matter. Don’t rush the process, but hone in on it. • Give feedback, not just impersonal rejections. DM me to discuss; I can help. Drop a ❤️ or 👏 if you want to see employers get better reps.
