Following these guidelines will help you lay the groundwork for a successful mobile recruiting strategy to help your company find and keep the best employees.

  1. Mobile-based, speedy screening of job applicants

Narrowing down hundreds of applicants for a single position may be tedious and time-consuming. Finding a good mobile solution to screen prospects from anywhere might help recruiters save time.

While waiting for your coffee to brew or your show to start, you may use a mobile screening app to review applications and select the best candidates for the next stage.

With the help of certain mobile solutions, you can enter your criteria into your applicant tracking system (ATS) and have it go through all the applications you get to select them based on the benchmark you established.

Quickly obtain a list of qualified applicants who have already been pre-screened using a set of questions and/or criteria you provide.

  1. Auto-Scheduling

Recruiters understand that organizing tests and interviews may be a huge hassle. All parties’ time is wasted if the panel and the candidates go back and forth for hours to find a time that works.

Modern businesses are developing methods to automatically plan meetings around employees’ availability in order to reduce this wait time. This function is normally integrated into larger mobile-enabled recruiting automation software.

  1. Automated Proctoring Secures Mobile Assessments

Offline pre-recruitment examinations require applicants to clear their schedules for the full day, go to the recruiter’s office, and then return home again. Whether or if they are qualified, having to go through such a lengthy and arduous stage before hiring is undesirable.

These days, most companies recognize the benefits of online testing and use it to fill at least certain positions in their organizations. That’s not all, however. In order to clinch the sale, ensure your online assessments are accessible on all devices and encrypted.

Candidates may take the tests from the convenience of their own homes thanks to online pre-recruitment assessment technologies that allow for the administration of exams through hand-held devices in a secure environment.

Such examinations are protected by proctoring procedures that prevent any attempt at tampering with the results. These remotely proctored examinations have grown in popularity in recent years as a more convenient replacement for traditional offline assessments.

  1. Video Interviews

As social distance becomes more widely accepted, resources are available to assist you in dealing with it. Conducting evaluations and video interviews is now possible with a specialized mobile video platform like GoRemote. Both job seekers and hiring managers may connect from anywhere around the globe.

Asynchronous video interviews let you input text questions once, then send them to any prospective employee. When a candidate nears the end of the hiring process, you may perform live one-on-one interviews as a final selection round.

Video conferencing eliminates the need to gather all relevant parties in one place for a series of in-person meetings and discussions. As a result, the panel and the recruiters may save a lot of time.

  1. Simple Collaboration with Stakeholders

Waiting for a hiring manager to react to several emails and voicemails to make a hiring decision on a candidate is just one example of the many delays that might occur as part of the team’s concerted attempt to fill a position. Meanwhile, the lengthy waiting time hurts the applicant experience.

You can’t avoid this tedious procedure if you have to repeat it for every applicant. With a mobile recruiting process, you can quickly evaluate several applicants and coordinate with everyone involved in the process from a single location.

It’s convenient for candidates to track their application progress, schedule and attend assessments, communicate with the recruiter and the interview panel, and examine their results in one convenient app.

For the same reason, it would be a huge relief for the recruiter to have a centralized location from which they could see the progress of all candidates for all roles and get panel input.
