What It Is
“There has to be a better way”. That’s where we started, with that statement… and now there is. Applicant Advantage is the better way to make your best first impression and leave a lasting impression.
Three guys with many years in talent recruiting finally bubbled over with frustration. No matter how many conversations we had, what questions we asked, what the candidate and / or client said, there was still WAY too much left to chance. The recruiting industry really doesn’t innovate much. Sure, the internet brought us digital job boards, on line resumes, etc. but it also brought a whole new list of challenges. Suddenly we could tell the entire world we were looking for a person with a particular skill set; unfortunately, the entire world instantly responded with a resume. The basic job of the recruiter, to source and sift down to the best candidates, remains the same. The interview processes has, in many cases gotten worse and the “one page resume” is still the gold standard. Or, at least it was.
