Inside the Candidate Experience 2026 — APAC

The tools have changed. The breakdown in communication hasn’t.

Across India, Australia, New Zealand, and Singapore, candidates have embraced AI faster than anywhere else in the world. Employers have largely said nothing about it.

The result is a widening gap between what candidates want from the hiring process and what they actually experience – and the data shows that gap is costing organisations more than most talent acquisition leaders realise.

Download the 2026 APAC report to explore:

• How 67% of APAC candidates are being ghosted in more than half their applications – and what it’s costing employers in reputation damage, revenue risk, and pipeline attrition
• How PeopleScout’s Candidate Experience Index scores organisations across five hiring stages, and why the Engagement stage – where most damage happens – scores just 9 out of 100
• What India’s employers are doing differently, and why it’s producing measurably higher candidate confidence

Plus, you’ll get communication checklist to strengthen your hiring process and protect the return on your AI investment.
