Numbers  always  facilitate  an  organisation  to  plan  the  efficiency  of  anyactivity.  The  same  applies  for  hiring  method  as  well.  Using  elaboratedanalytics reports bring out important insights to enhance the effectiveness ofthe hiring process.

10 ANALYTICS EVERY RECRUITER SHOULD FOLLOW June 11, 2015    Mukul Agarwal

Here are 10 analytics every recruiter should follow in their hiring process.

1. Open vs planned vacancies

Start the hiring process by clearly mentioning what are the urgent job positions to open and what positions company is expected to

open in future. This analytics will help hiring managers to manage the talent acquisition activities where exact timelines of next 6

months or a year can be provided.

2. Time for Hiring

When starting with the hiring process for new opening, it is recommended to take a note of the date of creation and planned closure

date for the opening. This will help in managing the time and resources to meet the timelines.

3. Channel sourcing

Procuring the channels to source the candidates is the most crucial step for any recruitment process. Track the effectiveness of each

channel  in  terms of no. of profiles received, candidates  turned up for  the interview, relevancy of  the profiles, closures made and

finally the cost per hiring from that channel. This will help in allocating budgets and resources to each channel accordingly.

4. Referral rate

Page 2: 10 analytics every recruiter should follow fastcollab blog

Measure the number of referrals getting converted into new joinees, to plan a better incentive structure for the current employees. A

well planned and attractive incentive program can be helpful in sourcing best fit candidates in the organisation. If the referral rate is

too low then there is a need to rethink about the current incentive policies, or bring one if not implemented till now.

5. Rejection Rate

Rejection  rate can be  seen as  the  ratio of number of candidates got  selected  to  the  total number of candidates appeared  for  the

interview. If the rejection rate seems to increase, then recruiters should look to discuss back with the requirement team on what kind

of candidates they are expecting.

6. Offer acceptance rate

Measure the offer acceptance rate by no. of candidates accepted the offer against no. of offers released by the company. If the rate is

going on a down slope it is recommended for recruiters to connect back to candidates and understand the reason – it could be better

salary offered by competitor. mismatch in expectation vs reality during interview or less attractive employee policies.

7. Mixed Gender team ratio

There are many benefits with a mixed gender team which show results in greater profits. An organization should plan for a metric

which measures the percentage of men and women on each team in all the front, middle and senior level positions. It’s always good

to step back and maintain the gender mix within the teams and the whole organization.

8. Applicant Reports

Any effort put in recruitment process can turn out to be null and void if there is no tracker put in place to track applicants going

through various interview stages. Recruiters should be able to track each applicant to know whom to reach for which interview

process.

9. Recruitment Performance Report

Every recruiter should be evaluated on the basis of daily, weekly and monthly recruitment performances. This report should clearly

mention profiles sourced for hiring, interview scheduled, closures made and time taken to close the vacancy. This will give a direct

analysis to the management about each recruiter.

10. Cost of hire

The most  importance  analytics  every  company  should  track  is  the  cost  of  hire  for  each  applicant  and  each  opening.  The  cost

parameters can include – offline advertising to newspapers, billboards, online advertising to job sites or social media, recruitment

fees to agency and even salary paid to each recruiter. A healthy ratio can be seen when total candidates joined to total money spent

is lesser than the budget allocated by the company

To  make  it  easy  for  the  recruiters,  Applicant  Tracking  System  comes  with  integrated  reports  covering  most  of  the  analytics
