• The mission of The Talent Board is to facilitate the evolution of the employment candidate experience principally through the annual production of The Candidate Experience Awards.
• The CandE Awards is a free, annual competition process where:– Employers have the opportunity to benchmark their candidate
experience against that of other companies– Employers have the opportunity to participate in a 3rd party survey of
their employment candidates to see what their candidates really think of their process
• The CandE Award process is a competition, but it is also designed to provide every organization that chooses to participate, confidential and specific feedback on how they can improve their candidate experience.
