Recruiting Performance Overview — Your monthly overview of recruiting KPIs
Data shows that a clear overview of the entire recruiting process is invaluable. From Applications to Interviews to Hires, this analysis helps you identify bottlenecks and manage the hiring process based on data. Discover where your funnel is stalling, which phases are particularly efficient, and how you can optimize your recruiting strategy to hire faster and more effectively.
What does analyzing recruiting performance in the last month mean?
This analysis shows how effective recruiting has been in the last four weeks — e.g. number of applications, recruited candidates, time-to-hire, or drop-off rates in the funnel.
It provides a quick overview of the efficiency and quality of talent acquisition within a defined period of time.
Why that's important:
- Measure recruiting success: Monthly performance data shows whether the set goals have been achieved.
- Optimize processes: Deviations or bottlenecks can be identified and resolved at an early stage.
- Make strategic decisions: Performance insights enable targeted measures to improve recruiting channels, processes and candidate experience.
