Survale to Host Exclusive “Recruiting, Hiring and the Candidate Journey” Workshop in Philadelphia

Survale, the leading provider of talent feedback and experience management solutions, in partnership with the CandE Benchmark Research and Award Program, is pleased to announce an intensive, hands-on workshop: “Recruiting, Hiring and the Candidate Journey: Unlock Hiring Secrets in Philadelphia!” Presented by the Survale CandE Benchmark Research and Award Program and sponsored by Match2, this exclusive session is designed for HR directors, talent acquisition leaders, employer branding professionals and recruiters who are looking to move beyond simple metrics and drive real operational change in their hiring processes.

In today’s dynamic job market, Survale’s data indicates that candidate experience is no longer just a buzzword; it is a critical factor for attracting and retaining top-tier talent. Companies that prioritize a transparent and engaging journey consistently outperform their rivals by building stronger employer brands and reducing candidate resentment.

"We are thrilled to bring this level of actionable intelligence to the Philadelphia region,” said Kevin Grossman, VP of CandE Benchmark Research at Survale. “This workshop isn’t just a passive seminar. It’s fun, interactive, and a deep dive into the latest benchmark research and real-world case studies that help organizations identify friction points and master the power of feedback to improve their ROI."

Workshop Highlights Include:

• Data-Driven Best Practices: Insights from the latest CandE Benchmark Research on what constitutes an exceptional candidate experience.

• Gap Identification: Interactive exercises to pinpoint friction within participants’ current hiring funnels.

• Feedback Mastery: Strategies for collecting and acting upon real-time candidate sentiment using the Survale platform.

• Strategic Networking: Opportunities to connect with fellow Philadelphia-area TA professionals to share challenges and exchange ideas.

The workshop takes place the day before Survale is set to sponsor Phenom’s IAMPHENOM Conference. This makes it easy for conference attendees to participate in the workshop as well.

In a commitment to the local community, proceeds from the workshop will benefit the Philadelphia chapter of Cradles to Crayons, a charity focused on providing essential items to children in need.
