Are you saying that once you make an offer that your candidates are rejecting the offer - how are you making the offer verbally first - via phone and then follow-up with the offer package?
Perhaps you are not highlighting the TOTAL Compensation package to them clearly... it's hard to say what is wrong with the process without too much information.

Hi prasad
I believe you have minimum set of technical and HR round of interviews. once a candidate passes tech round he should be negotiating salary part in his HR round. when you make sure that the candidate agrees orally you give him the written offer letter. if this procees goes on smoothly, i think there should be no problem of candidate escaping after getting offer letter.
if my point is not clear please do suggest.
Thanks & Regards

Prasad,
Well the economics of demand and supply is coming in your way, as companies are in a major hiring mode, candidates are ensuring they make hay when the sun is shining, one of the fallout i personally have seen is the increasing number of "no shows", most active job seekers are essentially looking to either renegotiate their terms at their current organisation or fishing for a bigger catch, unless the candidate is "really" interested in your offer and organisation, they will most likely go back to their current firm and check for hike by showing or hinting of your offer OR keep looking out till they find a fatter pay packet.
Well, if you do all the things correctly, such as selling the "worK', highlighting the "pay" ( matching expectation ) , show their "path" in the organisation, extend a " genuine warm" welcome and do a good follow up, the chances are that you may have person on board. Make sure you are consistent in your mails with the individual thru the notice period and extend all courtesies to check if they would need any support joining your organisation. Do not count on candidates as "filled" post offer, the actual job of recruting in today's competitive market is a good follow thru. Remember there are tons of companies out there looking for these same folks.
Good luck...

Hi Prasad
The process is unknown to us.
Yet, this kind of scenario is existing in all the small and medium enterprises across all geographies. Most often, we came across the situation wherein the candidate accpets the offer letter used to scale up his value in another relatively bigger organization to negotiate a bigger chunk of salary. This offer letter is the tool is in their hands
people loose their employees - current and potential to BIG player more often faces similar situation. Cabdidates tend to look for the following parameters often before joining
Brand
Money
Nature of work
Designation
Location
etc
Despite all this, people take interviews and accept offers - one reason is to find the market worth and other is to negotiate
Negotiation can be with existing employer or potential employer
Its not the process that ends up faultering - the kind of person or companies from where you are picking up may be faltering
Rethink of the process again - how much brand or market visibility you have and how to increase the same? May be a kind of assessment centre will be of help or a psychometric tool

Hi Prasad
This will not happen immediately. This is the cocnern shared by numerous organizations.
The approach shoule inculde
Brand building - attracting good talents by projecting you as a best employer to work with
What you can offer - don't oversell and over promise - keep that very clear
If you can carry out an analysis of the people who not joined, quoting reasons - understand the gaps and wherever you can fill them
A salary survey can help you in terms of understanding your market positioning in terms of compensation
Employee referrals - this can be the best tool - your employess act as brand ambassodors and gain financially - what you pay off to consulatnts. Here the retention rate is relatively very high
Do a survey in your organization to find out the satisfaction level and fill gap. This satisfies the existing crew for them to refer others
How do you differentiate yourself - If you belong to product company, use that as the USP
Career planning and development - what are your measures and how the people are benefitting
What could be done during the selection process -to make a potential employee feel he will be taken care of - think somehting innovative like providing a greeting card before the person actually comes for the final interview / HR interview (this is just a suggestion - may be stupid!!)
A psychometric analysis of employee prior selection - knowing his values, steadiness, etc - (this is a costly affair for sure)
These are some of the ways which can help you to incerease the offer joining ratio
The beginning point would be your analysis
Why they did not join ? Cause
Where did they go ? competitor
Why did they go ? comparison
what could be done ? culmination
Process is long and done expect immediate results - then you will be furstrated

Hi Rajesh!
I have one suggestion for you in this regard.
To share with you, currently we are also facing the same situation, where people after taking offer letters and don't join afterwards.
This is common in case of freshers or with candidates having less yrs of experience.
The main reason for this may be because in IT there are so many offers waiting for people. If gap between the day person is given offer letter and joining date is more, candidate may probably get any other good offer in between and accept other offer..(That should actually be happening)
Right now we have come up with a solution that shorten such period.. or issue offer letter/appointment letter only after that candidate joins(May be after 1-2 days later).
And ofcource not to forget, always be ready with some backup.

Hi Shweta
It appears to be good.!
The mobile unit is often act cranky when it comes to offer.
In your case, what is the confidence level we can demand amonngst the candidates ? I am unsure of that. The time frame need to be reduced for sure -
My point would be looking things from the long term point of view - hence the causes are to be identified which will help in stopping me bleeding at crucial times
The other way of looking at your approach - it depicts explicityu that your amount of trust on the candidate is minimal or negligible - the psyche of an ordinary person would wander like - if the company is not trusting me before i join, how can i trust them ? How would be the treatment after i join?
(Please done be offensive - i am not criticising the approach - this is just my view )
I am interested in keeping the guy who is keen to be with me for a long range than a stop gap arrangement. You can analyse the people who leaves after your new approach - how much impact that creates on them too which may articulate a new strategy for you
Thanks for the suggestion
