        Efficiency & Outcomes

        This section gives you a quick peek into how the candidates sourced are being advanced into the stages of hiring as well as the time taken from sourcing to hire and sourcing to phone screen

        Recruitment funnel metrics

        • Candidates Sourced
        • % Applicants = Applicants / Candidates Sourced
        • % Phonescreened = Phone Screened candidates / Candidates Sourced
          • where, Phone Screened candidates = The candidates who have been advanced to the ‘phonescreen’ stage group

        • % Interviewed = Interviewed candidates / Candidates Sourced

          • where, Interviewed candidates = The candidates who have been advanced to the ‘onsite’ or ‘interview’ stage group

        • % Hired = Hired candidates / Candidates Sourced

          • where, Hired candidates = The candidates who have been advanced to the ‘hired’ stage group

        Recruitment funnel metrics trend

        • The trend lines parallel to the funnel denotes how these metrics vary with time and the x-axis denotes the time at which the candidates where sourced

          Example: If the % Applied = 40% in May 2023, it means that among the candidates who were sourced in May 2023, 40% of them have got converted as Applicants

        Hired Candidate Stats

        • Female Hires %
        • Days between Source to Hire: The difference in days between the source timestamp and the the time at which the candidate is advanced to the ‘hired’ stage (we also make sure the sourcing timestamp takes place before the application is submitted)
          • Formula = ifelse({activity_timestamp} <= {application_ts} AND isNotNull({min_hired_date}), dateDiff({activity_timestamp}, {min_hired_date},'DD'),0)
          • Use case: This will help the sourcers to plan on when to source candidates and how much time does it generally take for the candidate to be advanced to the ‘hired’ stage group

        • Days between Source to Phonescreen: The difference in days between the source timestamp and the the time at which the candidate is advanced to the ‘phonescreen’ stage (we also make sure the sourcing timestamp takes place before the application is submitted)

          • Formula = ifelse({activity_timestamp} <= {application_ts} and isNotNull({min_phonescreened_date}), dateDiff({activity_timestamp}, {min_phonescreened_date},'DD'),0)

          • Use case: Since phone screen is the first stage in the hiring funnel and the time taken to hire is not controlled by the sourcer, this will give an idea of how the sourcer can contribute in speeding up the hiring process

        Insights

        This section will help the sourcers’ answer the following questions and change their sourcing strategy as needed. (this insight can be controlled by all the filters in the controls section)

        • how many candidates to source for getting at least 1 hire (based on historical data) so that the sourcer can plan on sourcing ‘x’ candidates to get ‘n’ hires
        • Candidates Sourced QoQ: How does the trend in sourcing candidates vary based on the previous calendar quarter and if they have sourced enough candidates.
        • % Applied QoQ: How has the applicant conversion changed compared to the previous calendar quarter? If the applicant conversion has gone down, then is there something different that the sourcers should be doing?

        User Activity

        Weekly Adoption

        • Avg Weekly Active users: It is the average number of Weekly active users using one of these Eightfold Sourcing Features in the selected time frame
          • YoY metric: denotes how the Avg Weekly Active Users has changed compared to the previous year.

        • Avg Weekly Retention (Repeat Users) %: It denotes the percentage of users in a given week who were active in the previous week as well

          • YoY metric: denotes how the Avg Weekly Repeat users % has changed compared to the previous year.

        • Dataset(s): ta_feature_sourcing_adoption_by_week

        Monthly Adoption

        • Avg monthly Active users: It is the average number of monthly active users using one of these Eightfold Sourcing Features in the selected time frame
          • YoY metric: denotes how the Avg monthly Active Users has changed compared to the previous year.

        • Avg monthly Retention (Repeat Users) %: It denotes the percentage of users in a given month who were active in the previous month as well

          • YoY metric: Denotes how the Avg monthly Repeat users % has changed compared to the previous year.

        • Dataset(s): ta_feature_sourcing_adoption_by_month

        Overall Adoption

        • Description: This section gives you the aggregate number of users for a selected period of time, how they trend with time across the sourcing features and user level breakdown
        • Dataset(s): ta_feature_sourcing_efficiency_and_outcomes

        Hiring Outcomes & Hiring Efficiency

        This section contains the breakdown of the metrics that we displayed in the Overview section.

        KPI (on the left): Denotes the aggregate value of the metric for a selected period of time

        Trended chart (in the middle): Displays the KPI breakdown by feature and how it trends with time. The X-axis always denotes the timestamp associated with the sourcing activity

        User level breakdown (on the right): Displays the KPI breakdown by user and how it trends with time. The X-axis always denotes the timestamp associated with the sourcing activity

        Wall of Fame

        This section highlights all the top performing sourcers in terms of:

        • candidates sourced
        • sourced to hire ratio %
        • time taken between source to phone screen
        • Diverse Applicants %
        • Hired Candidates
        • time taken between source to hire
