Candidate Database Goes Stale — 10,000 resumes in your database. 8,000 unreachableโchanged numbers, not job hunting. Your "talent pool" is actually a graveyard.
Interview No-Shows Kill Credibility — Schedule 10 interviews, 6 show up. Candidates forget, accept other offers, or ghost. Client loses confidence in your agency.
"Where's My Application?" All Day — Candidates call daily asking for status updates. Clients follow up constantly asking for shortlists. Communication eats all your time.
Post-Offer Dropouts Hurt Placements — Candidate accepts offer, you celebrate. Joining dayโno show. They accepted a better offer and didn't inform you. Lost commission.
Email Goes Unread — Send job descriptions via emailโ20% open rate. Candidates live on WhatsApp but your ATS only sends emails. Shouting into void.
Lost Referral Potential — Placed candidates know other job seekers. But you never ask for referrals systematically. Your best sourcing channel remains untapped.
