NOVEMBER HIRING INSIGHTS

Move fast but strategically. WHY?

November is your last window to secure top talent before the December slowdown and budget cut-offs. TIP: Shorten interview processes, have pre-booked slots early in the month, have start dates in mind ready for your December starters.

Take advantage of lower competition. WHY?

Many companies pause hiring until January. TIP: Post your roles now and get ahead of the Q1 recruitment surge when competition for candidates is sky high.

Use the year end reset mindset. WHY?

November is when candidates reflect on goals, burnout and change. TIP: tailor your job ads to those who are looking for a new challenge: 'Looking for a fresh start in the New Year?'

Offer flexible start dates. WHY?

Some great candidates aren't ready to jump until January. TIP: Hire now but offer January start dates to give candidates peace of mind, increasing application numbers.

Don't ghost. Give Closure. WHY?

Candidate sentiment is extra sensitive at this time of the year. TIP: Provide timely feedback, even if it's a NO. Candidates remember employers who communicate professionally.

Boost employer brand. WHY?

Job-seekers start researching future moves now. TIP: Update your Glassdoor / Linkedin pages, ask current employees for testimonials, post about internal culture initiatives.
