Active applicants are usually more motivated and more loyal than those who are among the leaders in the general list. It is important to respond to all candidates from this list. At this stage of the recruitment funnel, an automatic resume check can be used. However, this method is unreliable, since the program often rejects suitable candidates who could have made it to the top contenders for the position. For this reason, it is better to select applicants manually.

Step 6: Interview

The "Interview" stage is a direct interaction with the candidate. Usually there are several such meetings: with the recruiter, the head of the department and, if necessary, with the CEO or company representatives. Modern advanced companies, for example, in the IT sector, try to conduct all interviews with the candidate within one day. Many prefer a remote format. This allows saving time for both parties, and also creates a pleasant impression even in case of refusal.

The main difficulty of this stage is an objective assessment. This problem can only be solved through a clear selection system: establishing common criteria, taking into account possible disagreements within the team and determining the person responsible for making the final decision in controversial situations. It is also important to control the number of interviews for each applicant, use assessment sheets and monitor the ratio between the number of applications and interviews conducted.
