Application Process

The application process provides a structured and effective method to gather information from candidates for a job. Your application process should provide:

  • Clear instructions to candidates on how to apply
  • Relevant information concerning timelines
  • A feedback mechanism to inform candidates where they are in the process

Hiring Youth

Youth tend to prefer short timelines between the application and screening processes. In addition, clear communication about the anticipated timelines for each step throughout the process should be conveyed to manage expectations.

Hiring Newcomers

Newcomers tend to benefit from application processes with clear steps and timelines. This enables them to know what to expect in the Canadian marketplace, especially as practices and expectations from the process may differ.
