I am interested in special problems faced in IT recruitment and a hiring process. Be it a recruiter, HR professional, or a job seeker, each has a set of frustrations and needs. To understand those better, I'd love to hear thoughts from your perspective on what could make this process smoother, more transparent, and thus successful for all parties involved.
Questions for HR professionals and recruiters:
- What are the main challenges you face when hiring IT specialists?
- Is there any tool or feature that would make your job easier or more efficient?
To candidates:
- At what stages in the recruitment process do you especially feel frustrated or that it takes a lot of time?
- Do you find it hard to get feedback after interviews? What could make such situations easier?
- What features or options would you need, if added to the existing platforms, that would make your job search process easier and more effective?
Your insights are super important for understanding what real needs and challenges there are in IT hiring.

It often annoys me that HR does not get to know the candidate's resume in more detail. For example, it is elementary to read in which country the candidate lives. Because of their inattention, you have to spend a lot of time on meaningless interviews that you will not pass just because you are in the wrong country
It is also annoying that many give superficial feedback, which makes it unclear what the reason for the refusal is. On the one hand, I understand that HR has a lot of interviews every day and they don't have time, on the other hand, I would like to know which sides I can improve.
