Demandment 09. Reward Me

Brought to you by Talent Mindset.

Companies that deliver exceptional work/life experiences consistently earn the loyalty of their employees over time. But how does this apply to the candidate-relationship-management process and the application-to-hire process? One of the keys here is in great technology-enabled business processes. Reward a candidate's interest and efforts with ease of use and responsiveness. In reality, "Reward Me" means "Appreciate Me." Rewards come in many shapes and sizes. They are intrinsic and extrinsic. Intrinsic rewards can be a thank you, a follow up, a personal connection made as part of the process. Extrinsic rewards might be coupons for products or services for "registration," referral bonuses, and other "spiffs" that help you generate and maintain excitement among interested visitors to your career site. WOW your candidates and they will reward you with not only their own application but the referral of their friends and colleagues.
