A Note from the Editor
In recent years, the candidate experience has become a major theme in the conversation surrounding talent acquisition and recruitment. To get a better understanding of how UK application processes take into account the candidate experience, Textkernel, specialist in semantic recruitment technology and exhibitor at our upcoming technology showcase event, has conducted a survey amongst UK recruitment and HR professionals of 62 companies. To see the resulting inforgraphic and download the full report, see Louise's Blog.

“In Top Recruiter, Reign of the Bosses, the day of recruiter reckoning has arrived. Contestants’ skills will be scrutinized. Their character will be questioned. And in the end, judgment will be passed.” See the new trailer for this fantastic, thrilling new documentary series here.

The awards dinner is on 26th November and it promises to be an amazing all-glittering evening! You can see all the finalists in here in Louise's Blog.
