It has never been harder to find the people you need, and it is only going to get harder. There are fewer people out there, and there has been a significant shift in the way candidates want to find and apply for jobs.
Retailers who take proactive measures to adapt their talent attraction and candidate experience strategy and lean into new thinking and technologies are the ones who will get ahead.
inploi’s team of analysts audited the talent attraction and candidate experiences of 40 major UK retailers to produce a snapshot of how many organisations are embracing the challenges.
Highlights from the report:
- Only 13% advertise jobs on social media channels meaning they aren’t reaching passive job seekers or optimising for a Gen Z audience.
- Neurodivergent individuals make up 15% of the UK population, yet only 38% of organisations have built-in accessibility features.
- While a large proportion enabled candidates to apply in 3 clicks or less, a staggering 78% required a CV to apply for a job.

Inploi company profile
We are on a mission to power the front-end of the hiring journey, for everyone.
We focus on innovation at the top of the talent attraction funnel: from how companies reach candidates online through to the point at which they submit their application into a company’s existing ATS. This is delivered through three core modules: Attract, Convert, and Analyse which work together to modernise the way companies reach candidate audiences, convert candidate traffic into completed applications, and analyse the results to drive improvement and optimisation.
Our innovative approach to future-proofing talent attraction without replacing existing systems and the results achieved for our partners have resulted in a growing list of blue-chip clients. These include the Compass Group UK&I, wagamama, Haven, Butlin’s, and the A.S Watson Group.
It’s no secret the world of hiring is changing. And there’s no slowing it down. inploi future proofs the candidate experience, giving access to diverse talent pools with powerful technology. In real time.
