What is a candidate pack?

Product Overview

Traditionally, a candidate information pack is a collection of materials or documents provided by an organisation to potential job candidates during the recruitment process. Its main aim is to offer candidates a clear and engaging overview of the role, organisation, and other key details, helping them decide whether the position aligns with their goals and interests.

These packs are often compiled into PDFs, but creating them can be a time-consuming and complex task. The process may require input from multiple departments, including HR, talent acquisition, and design team.

Why Use a Candidate Information Pack?

  • Enhances Candidate Experience: Provides candidates with a detailed understanding of the role and the organisation.
  • Strengthens Employer Brand: Positions the organisation as professional, organised, and engaging.
  • Simplifies Communication: Reduces repetitive queries by offering all essential information upfront.
  • Attracts Top Talent: Professionally designed and interactive packs help capture the attention of both active and passive candidates.
