leadership?

18. Calculate Recruiting Costs: CPH vs. RCR
RecruiterX RecruiterY
# of Hires 15 Engineers 7 Senior Managers
Total Comp of Hires: $750,000 $980,000
Recruiting Expense: $66,000 $84,000
CPH Calculation = $66,000 ÷ 15 = $84,000 ÷ 7
Cost PerHire (CPH) $4,400 $12,000
RCR Calculation = $66,000 ÷
$750,000
= $84,000 ÷ $980,000
Recruiting Cost Ratio (RCR) 8.8% 8.6%
At a glance, it may seem as though
recruiter X is a more efficient and
effective recruiter both in volume of
hires and CPH metrics.
In reality, they are almost even in
productivity and resource
utilization. RCR is a better metric
to use for comparison.
