DALTON, Ga. — October 18, 2018 — Shaw Industries Group Inc. (Shaw) was recognized as a winner of the 2018 North American Candidate Experience (CandE) Awards. Out of the two hundred companies participating, Shaw ranked No. 33 of the 65 winners selected and was the only flooring manufacturer to receive this award.
The Talent Board recognized Shaw for its dedication to honest recruiting, a thoughtful application process and transparency with candidates. Award-winning companies were chosen based on their job candidates’ satisfaction survey scores through the recruitment research program. Responses were collected from over 130,000 job candidates, focusing on four key factors: overall recruitment experience, likelihood candidates would reapply to the organization, if they would refer others to the company and their potential business relationship status with the organization after their experience. Analysis of these responses resulted in a final CandE score for each participating organization.
An impactful candidate experience is part of Shaw’s talent strategy. The company is committed to a tailored and focused candidate engagement effort, knowing that Shaw’s success is greatly tied to its people and company culture. Participating in the Talent Board’s candidate research program allows Shaw’s talent acquisition leaders to learn which of its efforts and values resonate with candidates and how they can continually innovate the recruitment process. This commitment to recruiting has placed Shaw among top companies such as AT&T, Johnson & Johnson and Hilton Worldwide recognized for their superior candidate experience.
“Understanding that great people are at the heart of our business encourages us to take pride in fostering a culture that continues to attract and retain the best talent,” stated Mike Fromm, Shaw’s’ chief human resources officer. “We seek to have an engaging, professional and authentic recruitment experience with our candidates, leaving them with a memorable opinion of Shaw and allowing us to consistently recruit top associates.”
