Recruitment metrics are essential to identifying whether a hiring strategy is effective in achieving hiring success. They are the key to evaluating the effectiveness of the hiring strategy because they provide companies and hiring manager’s with actionable insights to improve and optimise the current recruitment process. The metrics used can save the cost to hire and is therefore not to be taken lightly.

And Talent Acquisitionists are held accountable by Hiring Managers or CFO for metrics that justify the Cost Per Hire (CPH). For Hiring Managers or CFO the main focus is more on reducing CPH, this development impacts the quality of Talent Hired. In spite of this development Recruiters have to ensure that they don’t compromise on obtaining good talent which is difficult to maintain.
