            Source analytics v2 dashboard

            scheduleLast updated on November 13, 2026

            Overview

            This dashboard tracks recruiting source performance across the funnel — applications, hires, referrals, and talent network growth. It is organized into three tabs: Application Source, Referral Activity, and Talent Network Growth. This guide follows the same structure.

            Application Source

            Total Application Count

            Definition: Total Application Count measures the count of distinct applications received within a given time period, filtered by application date, drawn from the source analytics new dataset.

            How it is calculated: Counts distinct applications received.

            Note:

            • Drilldown available by Application Source, Application Source Category, Application Credited To, Business Unit, Job Function, and Location Country.
            • Filtered by application date (application_ts).

            Avg Match Score of Applications

            Definition: Avg Match Score of Applications measures the mean AI-generated match score across applications within a given time period, serving as a proxy for candidate quality, filtered by application date, drawn from the source analytics new dataset. The match score is calculated on a scale of 1–5.

            How it is calculated: Averages the match score across applications, restricted to calibrated applications only.

            Note:

            • Scoped to calibrated applications only (is_calibrated = 1); uncalibrated match scores are excluded.
            • Filtered by application date (application_ts).

            Total Hire Count

            Definition: Total Hire Count measures the total number of applications that resulted in a hire within a given time period, filtered by hire date, drawn from the source analytics new dataset.

            How it is calculated: Counts the total number of applications that resulted in a hire.

            Note:

            • Drilldown available by Application Source, Application Source Category, Application Credited To, Business Unit, Job Function, and Location Country.
            • Filtered by hire date (hired_ts).

            Applications Share by Source Category

            Definition: Applications Share by Source Category measures the count of distinct applications, broken down by application source category, showing what portion of application volume comes from each channel, filtered by application date, drawn from the source analytics new dataset.

            How it is calculated: Counts distinct applications, grouped by application source category.

            Note:

            • Drilldown available by Application Source, Application Credited To, Business Unit, Job Function, and Location Country.
            • Filtered by application date (application_ts).

            Hires Share by Source Categories

            Definition: Hires Share by Source Categories measures the total number of hires, broken down by application source category, showing what portion of hiring outcomes comes from each channel, filtered by application date, drawn from the source analytics new dataset.

            How it is calculated: Counts total hires, grouped by application source category.

            Note:

            • Drilldown available by Application Source, Application Credited To, Business Unit, Job Function, and Location Country.
            • Filtered by application date (application_ts) — not hire date. The reporting period reflects when the underlying application was submitted, not when the hire was completed.

            Avg Match Score of Applications by Source Category

            Definition: Avg Match Score of Applications by Source Category measures the mean AI-generated match score (out of 5), broken down by application source category, surfacing which channels bring the best-fit candidates rather than just the most volume, filtered by application date, drawn from the source analytics new dataset.

            How it is calculated: Averages the match score (rounded to two decimal places), restricted to calibrated applications only, grouped by application source category.

            Note:

            • Scoped to calibrated applications only (is_calibrated = 1); uncalibrated match scores are excluded.
            • Drilldown available by Application Source, Application Credited To, Business Unit, Job Function, and Location Country.
            • Filtered by application date (application_ts).

            Recruiter Attribution

            Recruiter/Referrer Performance

            Definition: Recruiter/Referrer Performance measures the convergence of application volume, hires, hire rate, and average match score, broken down by whoever is credited on the application (application_credited_to) — whether that's a recruiter or a referring employee, filtered by application date, drawn from the source analytics new dataset.

            How it is calculated: Counts distinct applications and total hires, divides hires by applications to get the hire rate (as a percentage, rounded to one decimal place), and averages the match score (rounded to two decimal places) — all grouped by whoever is credited on the application, excluding applications with no credited recruiter or referrer.

            Note:

            • Only named recruiters/referrers are included; system/automated and blank credit are excluded.
            • Drilldown available by Application Source, Application Source Category, Business Unit, Job Function, and Location Country.
            • Filtered by application date (application_ts).

            Number of Unique Candidates Referred

            Definition: Number of Unique Candidates Referred measures the count of distinct candidates referred by company employees within a given time period, counted once regardless of how many applications they submitted through the referral, filtered by application date, drawn from the source analytics new dataset.

            How it is calculated: Counts distinct candidates, restricted to those referred.

            Note:

            • Drilldown available by Location Country, Job Function, and Business Unit.
            • Filtered by application date (application_ts) — the reporting period is determined by when the referred application was submitted.

            Referral Hire

            Definition: Referral Hire measures the total number of applications that were both referred by an existing employee and resulted in a hire within a given time period, filtered by hire date, drawn from the source analytics new dataset. This metric highlights the effectiveness of the referral program in filling positions.

            How it is calculated: Counts hires among applications flagged as referrals.

            Note:

            • Drilldown available by Location Country, Job Function, and Business Unit.
            • Filtered by hire date (hired_ts).

            • Filtered by application date (application_ts).

            Referred Candidates & Referring Employees (Monthly Trend)

            Definition: This widget tracks the monthly count of distinct referred candidates alongside the number of unique employees who referred them, helping TA teams track referral program momentum and identify periods of high or low referral activity, filtered by application date, drawn from the source analytics new dataset.

            How it is calculated: Counts distinct referred candidates and distinct referring employees, both grouped by month, restricted to referral applications.

            Note:

            • Drilldown available by Location Country, Job Function, and Business Unit.
            • Filtered by application date (application_ts) — a candidate or referring employee is counted in a given month based on when the corresponding referred application occurred.

            Referral Performance by Employee

            Definition: Referral Performance by Employee ranks employees who refer candidates by candidates referred, referral applications, referral hires, and hire rate, identifying the most effective referrers, filtered by application date, drawn from the source analytics new dataset.
