Do you respond to every applicant who applies to you?

With the world of social networking steam rolling ahead (some predict Facebook will top 1 Billion users this year) how does a bad experience translate and impact on your business?  I’ve given talks before about this and what we fail to realise is that a clients bad experience may be tweeted, posted on facebook or vented verbally to friends and colleagues.   With the power of social media, these messages can be spread like a virus…which quite simply equates to bad press for your business or brand.  On the flipside, a wonderful experience can have the same effect and greatly enhance your business.

As I am sure many of you have experienced in the past, we have all been in the job market and we have all applied for a job.  How many of you have not received any answer or response to your application, how did it make you feel?

We live in a very verbal world and you need to ensure that every one of your applicants are responded to in a timely fashion.
