What is 'candidate ghosting' in staffing, and how can technology help mitigate it?
Answer: When candidates stop responding after accepting an offer; mitigated by automated check-in workflows and timely communication tools
Candidate ghosting occurs when a placed or pending hire stops communicating; automated reminder workflows, SMS check-ins, and engagement tools can reduce this dropout risk.
Which federal law regulates the use of E-Verify, the online employment eligibility verification system?
Answer: The Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA)
IRCA requires employers to verify the identity and employment authorization of all new hires, and E-Verify is a voluntary (sometimes mandatory) electronic tool built on IRCA compliance.
What does 'requisition management' refer to in a staffing agency's workflow technology?
Answer: The process of receiving, tracking, and fulfilling client job orders from intake to fill
Requisition management encompasses the lifecycle of a client job order — from initial intake and approval through sourcing, submission, and final placement.
What is the primary concern with using social media profiles in candidate screening from an equal employment opportunity standpoint?
Answer: Viewing profiles can reveal protected class information (race, religion, age), creating potential discrimination liability
Social media profiles often reveal protected characteristics; if a hiring decision is later challenged, prior knowledge of that information could be used as evidence of discriminatory intent.
In staffing data governance, what is a 'retention policy' for candidate records?
Answer: A formal policy defining how long candidate data is stored before secure deletion or archiving
A data retention policy specifies the duration for which candidate records (applications, I-9s, background checks) are kept, balancing legal compliance with privacy obligations.
What is the advantage of cloud-based ATS platforms for staffing agencies with multiple branch offices?
Answer: They allow centralized, real-time access to candidate and order data across all locations without local server infrastructure
Cloud-based ATS platforms enable recruiters across different branches to access shared talent pools, collaborate on placements, and maintain consistent data in real time.
