Survale, the leading provider of talent feedback and experience management solutions, in partnership with the CandE Benchmark Research and Award Program, will host an exclusive workshop, “Recruiting, Hiring and the Candidate Journey: Unlock Hiring Secrets in Philadelphia!” on March 9, 2026, at the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown. Sponsored by Match2, the workshop is designed for HR directors, talent acquisition leaders, employer branding professionals, and recruiters seeking to move beyond simple metrics and drive operational change in their hiring processes.
According to Survale, candidate experience has become a critical factor for attracting and retaining top-tier talent. Companies that prioritize a transparent and engaging journey consistently outperform competitors by building stronger employer brands and reducing candidate resentment. The workshop will provide insights from the latest CandE Benchmark Research, offering data-driven best practices for what constitutes an exceptional candidate experience. Participants will engage in interactive exercises to identify friction points within their current hiring funnels and learn strategies for collecting and acting upon real-time candidate sentiment using the Survale platform. The event also includes strategic networking opportunities with fellow Philadelphia-area talent acquisition professionals.
“We are thrilled to bring this level of actionable intelligence to the Philadelphia region,” said Kevin Grossman, VP of CandE Benchmark Research at Survale. “This workshop isn’t just a passive seminar. It’s fun, interactive, and a deep dive into the latest benchmark research and real-world case studies that help organizations identify friction points and master the power of feedback to improve their ROI.”
The workshop takes place the day before Survale sponsors Phenom’s IAMPHENOM Conference, making it convenient for conference attendees to participate. In a commitment to the local community, proceeds from the workshop will benefit the Philadelphia chapter of Cradles to Crayons, a charity focused on providing essential items to children in need.
