Oct. 18, 2011 - PRLog -- SANTA ROSA, CA - October 18, 2011 - Survale today announced the availability of a complimentary new white paper, “Five Keys to a Passive Candidate-Friendly Career Site.”  

This eight page report outlines the current state of corporate careers sites, the cost of poor career site execution, and five steps any organization could take today to dramatically increase their ability to convert traffic into applicants.

Survale research finds that only 10% of a typical career site’s visitors ever submit an application. Frequently this can be attributed to a number of fixable factors, all of which combine to make the average career site unfriendly to all but the most committed candidates.

“Five Keys to a Passive Candidate-Friendly Career Site” is an eye opening look at the most important, yet weakest link in most organizations’ recruiting process. Key findings addressed in the report include:

-Most companies waste 90% of career site traffic
-That 90% waste is comprised, in part, of passive candidates
-The overwhelming majority of career site visitors rely solely on impersonal career site interactions to form an opinion about a company, its values and its brand
-Bad interactions can result in negative implications for the entire company via:
   -Negative social network sharing
   -Loss of candidate as customer

Finally, the report details five keys that companies can implement immediately to make their career sites more effective at the one thing they are supposed to do:  Convert passive traffic into enthusiastic applicants.

“Companies have invested heavily in employment branding in recent years,” said Ian Alexander, Founder and CEO of Survale. “However, these employment brands are being killed by bad navigation, hidden jobs, and unnecessarily exhaustive employment applications. This white paper gives real world guidance on how to fix that.”
