Around sometime last year, the idea of ghosting began to take the tech recruiting and hiring industry by storm. If you\u2019ve been recruiting for a while, you\u2019ve probably experienced it, too. Candidates just stop showing up; they blow off phone screens, face-to-face interviews, and, in some instances, their first day on the job. For recruiters, the threat of ghosting looms large. You\u2019re devoting a lot of time to sourcing, screening, engaging, interviewing and hiring that perfect candidate. When that person just disappears, the recruiter loses out and has to restart the entire process from square one. While there\u2019s no surefire way to know when and why a candidate ghosts, it is possible to take concrete steps to help prevent it. Consider the following: <\/p>\n

Be Actually Interested in Your Candidates<\/strong><\/h3>\n

While you might think it\u2019s too simple to be true, I\u2019d call this step the most effective one of all. Next time you kick off your engagement strategy, remember two things: honesty and openness<\/a>. In order to exorcize the ghosts before they can start haunting you, you\u2019ll need to forge a real connection with them. By letting candidates know that you\u2019re sincerely interested in helping and relating to them on a personal level, you\u2019re more likely to foster trust and commitment\u2014and thereby avoid any unfortunate outcomes. Start off candidate conversations by explaining who you are and when you\u2019re available to the job seeker (be specific, unless you want emails every weekend). Let them know how long the process takes and what it might look like if they advance. If you\u2019re able to supply any additional details or resources, do it as early as possible. Once you lay the foundation, shift the focus back to the candidate. Find out who they are, how they prefer to engage, and what they\u2019re looking for from you. During this step, cover all of your bases<\/a> and take care of any other routine tasks. Maintain transparency by always explaining the \u201cwhy\u201d of your inquiries. <\/p>\n

Make Your Own Communication a Constant<\/strong><\/h3>\n

A lot of the backlash around ghosting places the blame squarely on those doing the hiring. The basic argument: Candidates apply for jobs without hearing back from hiring teams pretty often. Because of this, their ghosting could be a form of payback. While this theory doesn\u2019t quite align with what\u2019s happening in the recruiting space, it\u2019s not entirely off, either. Candidates want to know where they stand, how far along they are in the recruiting process, and when they can expect to hear from you. Communication is a basic tenet of the candidate experience. Remember the golden rule? Treat others the way you want to be treated. Whether you reach out the old-fashioned way, or you employ some form of automation like text messaging<\/a> software, just keep in contact with your candidates. Some recommend following up once a week, while others suggest a more aggressive approach: Reaching out every 24 hours and requesting a response every third message. Find out what works best for you by asking for candidate feedback, or even doing some A\/B testing. No matter how you choose to communicate, the key is making it a priority. <\/p>\n

Don\u2019t Lose Sight of Your Candidate\u2019s Needs<\/strong><\/h3>\n

Once you\u2019ve made it to the offer stage, you might think you\u2019ve got this candidate in the bag, but there\u2019s no guarantee just yet. Ghosting at this point is still very possible, especially when the job seeker is in high demand (which is usually true of tech pros with specialized skills). Even though you might not have control over what the employer offers, you can still serve as a valuable resource<\/a> to the candidate\u2019s career journey and help guide them in the right direction. The offer is usually a \u201cmake or break\u201d moment, and some candidates may need a little time to think about whether your team\u2019s offer is the right fit. Worst-case scenario, a better opportunity comes along, and poof, <\/em>you no longer exist. To prevent this from happening, revisit tip number one: Being sincerely <\/em>interested in the candidate. By showing that you see this candidate as a person and not just a req to fill, you\u2019ll keep that contact (and their referrals) in your talent pool for the long haul. <\/p>\n

Know (and Address) the Reality of Your Industry Pain Points<\/strong><\/h3>\n

The fact of the matter is, ghosting has been around in one form or another for a long time (it just has a trendier name now). The issue here is that ghosting appears <\/em>to be on the rise in the recruiting and hiring world. Before it becomes somehow acceptable in the eyes of job seekers, recruiters will need to learn how to step in and take a more positive approach to engagement. The best method for keeping ghosts at bay will always be to know and understand your candidate\u2019s value, emphasize your humanity, under-promise, and over-deliver.
