What are Recruitment Metrics?
Recruitment metrics are quantitative measures used to evaluate the effectiveness, efficiency, and quality of an organisation's hiring process. Key metrics include time-to-hire, time-to-fill, cost-per-hire, quality of hire, source of hire, offer acceptance rate, candidate conversion rate, and applicant-to-interview ratio. Together, these metrics provide a data-driven view of recruitment performance.
Why it matters
You cannot improve what you do not measure. Recruitment metrics give talent leaders the evidence they need to make informed decisions, allocate budget effectively, and demonstrate the value of recruitment to the business. Without metrics, recruiting decisions are based on gut feeling and anecdote. With them, teams can identify what is working, what is not, and where to invest for the greatest impact.
