It´s time we face it.
Candidates do not like to apply to postitions when companies advertise vacancies in a vacuum.
Often, companies do not state the name of the company or the salary range for the vacancies they advertise. Insted, they use words such as “Multinational Telecom Company”, or “Magic Circle Law Firm” and are silent or vague when it comes to salary. This is often rooted in that companies, or their human resources consultants, want to attract the best candidates out there for the role, and prevent them from being too selective and only going for the leading names in the industry or the high-paying roles.
However, this policy tends to backfire.
The force of globalization and increased movement of workers, coupled with the general lowering of travel costs would indicate a willingness of companies to incur in travel expenses to invite a candidate for an interview, when they are unable to fill a position locally and out-of-state or foreign applicants have the required skills, such as experience in a specific industry or company.
