UST's Recent Honors in Candidate Experience
Prestigious recognition includes number one overall rank for the EMEA region
ALISO VIEJO, Calif. — UST, a leading AI and technology transformation solutions company, has been recognized for its outstanding candidate experience across multiple regions including North America, Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA), and Asia Pacific (APAC). This recognition underscores UST's commitment to delivering exceptional hiring experiences to all candidates.
The prestigious CandE Awards serve as a global benchmark for candidate experience, evaluating hundreds of companies across various industries each year. UST's achievement across these regions reflects its dedication to providing an ideal candidate journey regardless of the position applied for. The emphasis on candidate experience significantly contributes to building a strong employer brand, enhancing retention, and improving the efficiency of the hiring process.
UST's success is highlighted through their initiative, 'No Candidate Left Behind,' which aims to engage with all candidates, fostering a sense of connection throughout the hiring journey. This program not only amplifies candidate engagement but ensures that each individual feels valued, irrespective of the outcome.
According to Survale, the organization behind the CandE Awards, the winners are determined through a meticulous review of candidate satisfaction survey responses, totaling over 66,000. Companies must achieve a statistically significant response rate, which includes feedback from candidates who were not hired, ensuring a holistic view of the candidate experience.
Kendall Messner, Global Head of Strategic Talent Acquisition at UST, shares insight into the significance of this achievement: "Winning these awards across multiple regions is a testament to the hard work of our global recruiting team. This recognition highlights our efforts in enhancing UST's talent brand, user-friendly career portal, professional hiring practices, and the stellar onboarding process we pride ourselves on. Being acknowledged in all the categories we entered reinforces our unified team vision to elevate every candidate's experience to new heights."
Furthermore, Kevin Grossman, VP of Benchmark Research at Survale, emphasizes the long-term benefits of investing in candidate experience: "In uncertain economic times, candidates remember how they were treated during their application process. Improving this experience is not just the right thing to do; it is crucial for building lasting relationships that positively impact businesses. Key factors like transparency and consistent communication during recruitment create favorable conditions for strong employer brands and beneficial business outcomes. "
