13. The Candidate Experience: Interviews are a Two-Way Street (and Candidates Are Paying Attention)

What does your candidate experience really say about your company culture? Kim Frost dives deep into a topic that’s often treated as an afterthought: the interview process. Spoiler alert, it’s not just a way to vet candidates; it’s your first leadership moment.

Kim shares real-world stories and practical tips on how small gestures can leave a lasting impression, how Gen Z candidates are reading between the lines, and why the interview is a two-way street. From creating a welcoming environment to giving honest feedback, this episode is your wake-up call to rethink the hiring experience from the ground up.

You’ll Learn:

Why the candidate experience is a direct reflection of your leadership and culture
How small details — like putting a name on a door — build trust and loyalty
The red flags candidates notice during interviews (and what drives them away)
What a true two-way interview looks and feels like
Why transparency, feedback, and follow-through matter more than ever
