Recruiting Metrics

In every company, the recruiting process generates data. This data, in the form of recruiting metrics or Key Performance Indicators (KPIs), indicate how effectively and efficiently your organization is hiring. Through tracking metrics, one can get tangible evidence of how successful the recruiting process is, rather than relying on intuition.
