Without measuring metrics around your recruitment activity it’s difficult to know if your staff recruitment is a great success or failing to live up to your overall objectives. There are many metrics than can be tracked but what is important for any HR professional is knowing which metrics are really worth using – those that will help you to see the best return. To get your team started, Webrecruit has compiled its top 6 recruitment metrics to help you to benchmark your current KPIs.

1. 6 Important Recruitment
Metrics: Which Ones
Are You Using?

2. 1. Cost-Per-Hire
Are you tracking every penny spent
when you make a new hire?
Calculating your average cost-per-hire
will aid you to drive down costs.

3. 2. Time-To-Hire
Break down your time-to-hire
by stages, such as: interview
to offer, offer to acceptance
and so on.
Knowing the time spent on
each stage will provide you
with an understanding of
where to look when
tightening up your internal
processes.

4. 3. Source of Application
Without monitoring your source of
applications, how can you know
which is your most successful
platform?

5. 4. Agency Usage
Do you know what percentage of
your recruitment is handled by
agencies?
Traditional recruitment agencies can
be costly; this metric will aid you
with forecasting your spend.

6. 5. Retention Rates
Often feel you are recruiting
for the same role?
Identifying trends in your
retention rates will allow you
strive to change them.

7. 6. Talent Pool Usage
How often are you
successfully hiring from
your own talent pool?
Keeping track of this will
help you to ensure your
talent pool is as strong as
you need it to be.

8. By focusing on the metrics that
matter you can drive down your
costs and dramatically improve your
internal processes.
