The world of recruitment is undergoing a fast-paced revolution, powered by artificial intelligence (AI) and automation. Traditional recruitment processes are becoming increasingly outdated, as organisations strive to improve efficiency, reduce bias, and improve candidate experience. 
 
In this blog, we will look at how AI and automation are shaping the future of recruitment, and the benefits they bring to both candidates and employers. 
Our guest blog by Lindsey Marriott, co-founder at Specific Learning & Coaching Ltd, tells us the importance of culture within an organisation and why you should be surveying the culture of your organisation writes: 
 
The culture of any organisation has a direct impact on commercial performance. Big statement…but there is a wealth of data to show that great employee engagement, creating a cohesive, positive and empowered team is the key driver to improving that performance and helps to reduce absenteeism, attrition, improve presenteeism, productivity and customer satisfaction. 
 
So -what’s the difference between a culture survey and an employee engagement survey? 
 
In reality, nothing…it’s the collective team including senior and other managers throughout the business that create the culture – so gauging what they think and how they feel is the first step to understanding your business culture 
In the current market, Candidates are King. They have the choice of positions and as an employer, you need to woo them. In the past recruitment has been very much a formal structured process, often without character and personality. 
 
60% of UK companies use an assessment centre process as part of their recruitment. It gives you a more objective view of candidates and can include more work-based assessments to give a better indication as to which candidate will be the best for the role. Assessment centres are accepted as being fairer than a standard interview process as more information is collected on each candidate. 
 
If you are using assessment centres, how can you use them to convey your values and the culture of the company to effectively sell your job opportunity over other roles that they may be applying for?
