Candidate experience is the way candidates feel about your company and its hiring process. It involves the interactions between the candidate and the company during multiple stages of the hiring process, including the job search, application, interview and onboarding phases. Candidate experience occurs not only when they interact with recruiters and other employees, but also when they use hiring software to apply for a role.
