What is Realistic Job Preview (RJP)?

A recruitment practice that gives candidates an honest, balanced view of both the positive and negative aspects of a job before they accept an offer.

Why it matters in hiring

Realistic Job Preview (RJP) comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
