What happens when an interviewer falls asleep mid-interview or a receptionist actively discourages a candidate from joining?

Discover how industry leaders like Microsoft and McKinsey are revolutionising their hiring processes by making candidates feel more at ease and better showcasing their real-world skills.
Tune in to learn actionable tips on improving your candidate experience, to enable your organisation to hire the best talent - and retain a positive employer brand even amongst the candidates you reject.
