Written by Debora Hermele | May 22, 2023

With the rise of AI-powered recruiting platforms, companies can now streamline their recruitment processes and gain a competitive edge in the talent market. Tengai is a platform that uses AI technology to deliver an exceptional candidate experience. In this article, we'll explore why it's important for you to find an AI recruiting platform like Tengai, and how it can help you make better hiring decisions while transforming the way you engage with top talent.

 

Why is candidate experience important?

Candidate experience is important in the hiring process because it directly impacts the success of your recruitment efforts. A positive candidate experience can help to attract top talent, build your employer brand, and improve your overall retention rates. 

By focusing on creating a positive candidate experience, you can differentiate your company from competitors and build a reputation as an employer of choice. This can help to attract top talent, improve the quality of your candidate pool, and ultimately lead to better hires.

When candidates feel valued and engaged throughout your recruitment process they’re more likely to accept your job offer and even stay with your company for longer. This can ultimately lead to improved business outcomes and a stronger, more successful organization.

What does a positive candidate experience look like?

Every interaction a job seeker has with your company throughout the recruitment process makes up for their candidate's experience. Candidates can interact with your brand or your employees. A positive candidate experience should offer clear, honest, and consistent communication. A positive candidate experience usually:

  • Sets realistic expectations for the job and work environment
  • Offers an easy and mobile-friendly application process
  • Treats candidates fairly at all stages
  • Provides a pleasant and seamless interview experience

The Tengai avatar

Too often, candidates have to endure tedious steps to get through a job application. And let’s be honest - There are still assessments that are time-consuming, convoluted, and likely to stir up some anxiety. So, more human resource functions are employing avatars in employee communications and job candidate assessments to help humanize those processes at scale while also reducing costs and seeking to save human resources time.

 

Human-like appearance

Tengai’s AI avatar has human-like qualities and exercises “human” cues, like nodding, blinking, and listening. This makes job seekers feel safe and comfortable, while also being engaging. As a part of the effort to become more inclusive, the avatar is designed to be both gender-neutral as well as racial-neutral. Tengai's human-like appearance reduces the impact of social and cultural biases in hiring decisions, while simultaneously raising the standard for the candidate experience.

Prevents unconscious bias 

Our revolutionary approach to hiring uses unbiased AI technology to conduct interviews. We designed our platform to eliminate unconscious bias and promote fair and objective evaluation of candidates. This ensures that every candidate is evaluated exclusively on their skills, qualifications, and experience, without any preconceived notions or subjective opinions. Our unbiased AI technology helps you create a more inclusive and equitable recruitment process that benefits candidates by providing them with a fair and equal opportunity to showcase their abilities. As a result of this innovative approach to interviewing, hiring managers gain faster and more accurate results, while candidates benefit from a better candidate experience.

Various language options 

Our software provides candidates the flexibility of being interviewed in both Swedish and English. This allows candidates to express themselves in the language they feel most comfortable with, increasing the chances of a successful interview. By speaking in their native language, candidates can articulate their thoughts and ideas more accurately and confidently, leading to a more positive and engaging experience. Our language options cater to a wider range of candidates, making it an inclusive and accessible tool for both local and international job seekers.

Understands and interprets language 

When we talk or write, different people may understand the same words in different ways based on their own experiences and ideas. Instead of relying on subjective interpretations of language, our software uses natural language understanding (NLU) to assess and analyze each candidate objectively. We developed our two-way interactive dialogue to be both fair and exciting to ensure every applicant has a better candidate experience. 

 

The Tengai Talent Hub 

A positive and engaging experience for job seekers is our focus with Tengai Talent Hub. It offers a user-friendly and customizable interface that allows candidates to create a profile, search for job openings, apply for positions, and communicate with hiring professionals all in one place.

The Tengai Talent Hub also offers a range of features that enhance the candidate experience, such as, the option to redo the conversation with Tengai, reuse it for several different job applications and get personalized feedback. This helps candidates feel in control over their interview data and stay informed and engaged throughout the recruitment process, increasing the likelihood of a successful outcome. Additionally, the platform is designed to eliminate unconscious bias and promote fair and objective evaluation of candidates, creating a more inclusive and equitable recruitment process.

Record and reuse conversations for multiple job applications 

Having to repeatedly prepare for new job interviews is stressful to say the least. With Tengai's Talent Hub, candidates have the unique opportunity to practice for their interviews while they record their conversations. They can then use this recording multiple times for different job applications. Candidates can focus on creating a high-quality interview that best showcases their skills and experience, and then use it for multiple job applications.

Sends timely feedback on interviews

There’s nothing worse than applying for a job and being seemingly ghosted by the person or company hiring. The Tengai Talent Hub provides candidates with personalized feedback on their interviews, which is sent directly to their profile. This feedback helps candidates to understand how they performed in the interview and get a sense of how Tengai has interpreted their personality based on their answers. This helps you create a more transparent and constructive recruitment process and helps candidates to grow and develop their skills, regardless of whether they are successful in securing the job or not.
