Measuring recruiting activities and their outcomes is important for TA leaders and their teams. How many candidates are visiting our careers site and how many are applying? What are the differences between hourly and professional candidates and how does that impact recruiting processes and resources? 

While long-time recruiting and hiring metrics like Time to Fill, Time to Hire, and many others may still be recruiting canon, ultimately, business leaders want to know whether we are hitting our hiring goals to grow and sustain our business. That’s the ultimate outcome. 

But what can we do about the 90% who aren’t offered the job? It’s all about delivering positive and fair candidate experiences throughout the candidate journey for all job types across multiple demographics, which isn’t easy to do. 

Don’t miss this insightful and interactive TA Week workshop with Kevin Grossman, ERE Media VP of Research. Kevin will share the latest CandE Benchmark Research, break down what the highest rated employers are doing to improve their candidate experience, and conduct small group exercises to develop personalized recruiting strategies and tactics for key demographic groups. Key takeaways will include:

  • Understanding that those who are hired will always be much more willing to refer others—over 80% more willing in our research—they will also have a better overall experience—an over 70% better experience. And one in every three to four hires is an internal candidate.
  • Understanding the perennial differentiators of consistent and timely communications from pre-application to onboarding and consistent and timely expectation setting about the entire recruiting process.
  • Understanding how CandE Winners, companies with above-average ratings in our annual research, consistently deliver positive and fair candidate experiences.
  • Understanding the positive return on these candidate journey outcomes includes the candidates’ willingness to apply again, refer others, be brand advocates, and even be customers for consumer-based businesses.
