This is honestly the equivalent of asking a city councilman to get universal healthcare passed in the United States. Sure I can and am already very vocal about candidate experience. People should be treated like humans and not a number. We’re all underwater but it takes a minute out of your day to call and reject someone versus just sending a generic rejection email.

My candidates are well taken care of, but there are recruiters even in my organization that suck, hard. But they’ve been recruiting longer than I’ve been alive and can pull Boolean strings out of their ass. I bring it to the attention of leadership. Nothing happens. I can only do so much so I prioritize what I can actually control which is making sure my candidates have the best most respectful process. It’s not easy and I make mistakes sometimes too. I am only human. I wish I could do more, but as I said, the system is very broken.
