# Candidate experience: why you are missing out on the best candidates

Despite your repeated efforts, you still feel like the best candidates prefer to go to your competitors?

Perhaps give them a bad candidate experience!

> *"I was asked if I had multiple girlfriends, it was for a sales position. And the recruiter told me that a good salesperson is bound to have several girlfriends..."*
> 
> *"Bring me proof that you can't have a child. I don't want a woman who gets pregnant after three months."*
> 
> *"I warn you, we are a very small box not very rich, you won't have to be too demanding about salary!"*

These sentences, taken from testimonials collected by [the employment blog](http://www.blog-emploi.com/), illustrate how a candidate can emerge from a job interview with a terrible image of a company.

### A candidate experience neglected by companies?

Without going to such extremes, it is possible to completely disgust a candidate with a bad [candidate-experience](https://inbound.lasuperagence.com/blog/5-conseils-pour-creer-une-experience-candidat-memorable). The consequences on the employer brand can be disastrous.

This infographic shows the extent to which a good portion of applicants reject the traditional hiring system:

To complement these figures, let's cite the study by [Textkernel](http://www.textkernel.com/fr/experience-candidat/), conducted in 2015, which shows that 92% of companies do not collect feedback from candidates  !

While it is easy to lose the trust of candidates, fortunately it is not so difficult to regain it.

To do this, all you need to do is implement a real [content strategy](https://inbound.lasuperagence.com/blog/comment-attirer-talents-strategie-contenu), not only to inform them upstream of the recruitment process ([Inbound Recruiting](https://inbound.lasuperagence.com/blog/linbound-marketing-pour-les-recruteurs-d%C3%A9couvrez-linbound-recruiting)) but also during and after the interview, during a phase called [Candidate Nurturing](https://inbound.lasuperagence.com/blog/6-conseils-pour-mettre-en-place-votre-lead-nurturing). 

Simple tools (blogs, social networks, emailing, landing pages) exist for this.

Your career site can be your best ally in improving your candidate experience.

Will you use it?
