Jobseekers ditch online applications after just 15 MINUTES

Potential candidates are willing to ditch an online application if it takes them longer than just 15 minutes to complete, according to new research from Hays.

The Hays What Workers Want Report 2018, which surveyed 14,600 employers and employees, found that 71% of applicants would lose interest in a role after just a quarter of an hour, indicating that a more streamlined, fast service would result in more interest in a vacancy.
