Top HR Tech Company Issues Distance Economy Hiring Report

GoodTime, a provider of automated interview scheduling solutions, has released the guide in an effort to educate both prospective job seekers and HR teams on the primacy of effective communication, transparency, and the candidate's well-being.

With the absence of in-person relationships, genuine connections need to be forged as part of the hiring process. The report proposes solutions to the problems inherent in remote hiring: the difficulty in establishing the kinds of meaningful connections that might signal a candidate’s suitability and prospects for a successful tenure. 

The GoodTime report determines that you should begin cultivating genuine relationships with each candidate from the very onset of the hiring process: this includes candid conversations on job compensation from the beginning. In one study cited in the report, almost 65% of candidates state that recruiters fail to effectively communicate in remote hiring.

One way to remedy this is to keep lines of communication open, taking the time to make candidates feel valued and respected.

GoodTime enhances the candidate experience by automating interview scheduling and interviewer training, as well as analyzing recruiting process metrics and providing actionable insights. A client's recruitment team may use GoodTime to successfully predict internal hiring trends, reduce time to hire by half, and significantly increase the productivity of their recruiting coordinator team.

One customer of the company's scheduling tool commented: \"The GoodTime team has been incredible to partner with in helping to roll out and customize the product.\"

\"The product itself frees up time for our team members to be more high-touch in our candidate experience, and so we can focus our time on projects that improve efficiency and processes.\"  The \"high-touch\" candidate experience is exactly what you should be striving for.
