The recruitment landscape has changed over recent years, and while 10 years ago screening and sourcing top talent was a stressful and long process, involving hours of advertising openings, scanning through CVs and trying to pick the best candidate. Today, and thanks to the power of online recruitment, it has become a simpler, and much more efficient process – as long as the right tools are being used.

1. Screen your candidates
When posting a vacancy, specify candidate requirements that are essential for the job and let Talentera automatically screen candidates who don't match your preferences out for you, allowing you to save time, and focus on the relevant ones. You can also create screen questionnaires, that can be included as part of the application process or sent out to candidates separately. See the results right on their profiles, and assess their talent before moving to the next step.
2. Test your candidates' skills
Have you ever hired a candidate who seemed perfect on paper and during interviews, only to find out, once they start working, that they are not actually as knowledgeable and skillful as they portrayed themselves to be? Save yourself the hassle. Talentera offers a multitude of tests you can choose from to qualify your candidates skills. These can be anything from IQ tests to technical skill tests. The results are fast, and comprehensive, and make your hiring decision an easier task
3. Schedule your job interviews
Set up your all your interviews quickly and easily by adding the interview details, available time slots, personalizing the invite, and selecting the candidates. The candidates then pick a slot with the first-come-first-serve time slot picker which ensures that there are no timing conflicts and you can even sync the calendar with your Google or Outlook Calendars.
4. Recruit as a team
With large recruitment teams, collaboration is necessary. With Talentera, everything is shareable, even the notes or feedback you might make on an interesting CV. Talentera even allows you to assign roles, and control the access granted to each user, and then keep the entire team on track with their assignments through the task manager.
