Protecting Candidate Experience at Scale

A Special Podcast Episode

Hear how TA leaders are using automation to deliver empathy not replace it.

As application volumes surge and recruiter teams grow leaner, candidate experience is increasingly at risk. Silence, delays, and inconsistent communication don’t just frustrate candidates, they quietly damage employer brands.

The episode also highlights how Ella, LevelUP’s AI-powered Talent Scout, helps organizations acknowledge, screen, and route candidates faster, so recruiters can focus on the human moments that matter most.
