Candidate-facing tools: career sites, employer branding, candidate engagement and the analytics that describe how the process felt from the other side.
Across the whole process rather than at one point in it. Every other category describes what you do; this one describes what the candidate receives while you do it.
Teams shopping for candidate experience software usually discover the real constraints, pricing tiers, seat minimums and integration gaps, after the demo. This page puts what we know up front.

Make the process something a candidate would describe well to somebody else.
This category runs alongside the whole process rather than occupying one step of it.
