This research is extremely powerful. Applied effectively it will help you significantly enhance the Return On Investment (ROI) from your Future Talent Programme by not only helping you reduce your costs, but also by improving your output. Importantly this research is not based on survey responses; it is based on real application data drawn from the Applicant Tracking Systems (ATSs) of our participating employers and is therefore the only report in the market to provide a true and reliable insight into what is happening in this fascinating arena. This year it is based upon the input of almost 100 employers who between them received almost half a million applications in the 2014-15 season.
