In today’s fast-moving campus recruitment landscape, it can be difficult to think beyond the next month—let alone plan for next year.

Recruiting Events Software: 2023 Buyer’s Guide
In a competitive talent landscape, recruitment events are a great way to engage with candidates, giving them an inside look at your organization, culture, employees, and opportunities to help them make informed decisions about where they might want to work. And by offering some of those events virtually, you open the door to connecting with a much more diverse slate of candidates from varying backgrounds, improving accessibility to your open roles. However, executing impactful recruitment events — both virtually and in-person — can be challenging to navigate, from inviting the right candidates to your events, quickly following up afterwards with applications to keep the momentum going, and pipelining attendees who aren’t great fits for your open roles right now.

Candidates and employers alike agree that the status quo of early career recruiting and hiring today is no longer effective. Candidates are sending out upwards of 50 internship or job applications to roles that they aren’t even sure they are qualified for, and in many cases, aren’t hearing back from companies after submitting their applications. At the same time, employers are spending a lot of time, effort, and money to find the right candidates and build diverse teams, but the response rates on their outreach are extremely low. In fact, for all the work that recruiters are putting into their outreach strategies today, many are experiencing response rates as low as 2%.

Gen Z Is Losing Confidence in the Job Search in 2023
The economy has been nothing less than unpredictable over the last few years (especially the last few months) — and consequently, so has the landscape for job hunters. And Gen Z, the newest entrants to the workforce, have definitely been shaken by what this means for their future in the labor market.

As 2023 began, however, their confidence began to wane.
