Tackling Candidate Ghosting in Construction Recruitment
Don't let skilled candidates slip through the cracks during hiring.
According to REC research, 75% of construction recruiters struggle with candidate ghosting. This leaves roles unfilled and damages your organisation's reputation. But AI can automate candidate outreach and keep them engaged throughout the recruitment process.
The Ghosting Dilemma in Construction
Candidate ghosting is a significant challenge in construction recruitment, with high-demand skills leading to a competitive job market. A whopping 35% of candidates in this sector disappear after an offer has been made (Indeed). This can result in delayed projects and additional hiring costs.
