Recruiting Smarter in the Mass-Apply Era: A Fall Season Playbook
Watch the replay of this RippleMatch webinar, where CodeSignal joins the conversation on how top teams are navigating the mass-apply era—boosting efficiency, reducing reneges, and hiring the right candidates faster this fall.
With 70% of students using AI to scale their search and 60% continuing to job hunt after accepting an offer, today’s university recruiting landscape is defined by high volume, low specificity, and shifting candidate behavior. Recruiting in this mass-apply era means more applications, more noise—and more pressure on lean teams to deliver results.
In this hiring landscape, it’s harder than ever to identify top talent—and keep them engaged past day one.
Hear from experts from RippleMatch and CodeSignal in a tactical, data-driven session on how to thrive in today’s high-volume early talent environment. You’ll walk through each phase of the recruiting funnel—from sourcing to screening to sealing the deal—with strategies built for high volume and limited recruiter bandwidth.
