Talent acquisition is a challenging field, with many companies vying for top talent. To win the best talent, your candidates must be thrilled with your approach, trust you, and feel comfortable making a career move.

Some of the most essential points a candidate wants to know before changing companies include:

- Company reputation
- Company stability
- Salary, benefits, and flexibility
- Growth opportunities
- Management style
- Values and culture

Respectful candidate relationships are essential to a company's reputation. Google's decision-makers need to see evidence that you can create and maintain well-established candidate relationships on the company's behalf.

Provide the interviewer with specific details about your approach to earning and keeping candidate trust. Consider the information you have learned about Google's company values. Then, incorporate your knowledge of their best hiring practices when discussing how you will ensure that candidates have an exceptional interview and hiring experience.

"As a recruitment professional, I hold personalized conversations that create, build, and maintain trust. One of my favorite interview questions is, 'What can I do today to support your passion?' I ask this question because it shows the candidate that I am ready to support their career dreams rather than only push a job opening that looks like it might be a fit. Through active listening, I do my best to deliver on each candidate's unique needs and expectations for the next steps in their career. The candidates I work with recognize my integrity and appreciate that I never waste a minute of their time. I check in with them regularly throughout the hiring process so they never feel forgotten. During this time, I continue to earn their trust with informative check-ins. Through the interview and vetting process, I perform regular temperature checks to ensure they are comfortable and happy with the hiring process. The more value I add, the more each candidate will trust me, thus, trusting Google as a company. When I applied for this role, I read on Google's careers site, 'Google's hiring process is an important part of our culture. Googlers care deeply about their teams and the people who make them up. We also care about building a more representative and inclusive workplace, and that begins with hiring. To truly build for everyone, we know that we need a diversity of perspectives and experiences, and a fair hiring process is the first step in getting there.' This statement stuck with me, and as a Google Recruiter, I will ensure that each candidate I speak with feels that the hiring process is fair and not overwhelming."
