What is a hiring metrics dashboard?

A hiring metrics dashboard allows HR teams to monitor and analyze KPIs such as job posting performance, applicant flow, time-to-hire, cost-per-hire, and source of hire, among others, in a visual and easy-to-understand format.

What are the common features of a hiring metrics dashboard?

Job posting performance to track the number of job postings, channels where it was posted, applicants from each channel, hires per job posting, etc.
Tracking applicant flow at each stage of the recruitment process, including resume screening, interviews, and offer acceptance.
Measuring time-to-hire to know the amount of time it takes to fill a position, from posting to offer acceptance.
Cost-per-hire to calculate the total cost of the recruitment process, including advertising, staffing agency fees, and internal HR expenses.
Source of hire to track where successful hires originated from, such as job boards, employee referrals, or direct applications.
Diversity and inclusion metrics to monitor diversity representation in applicant pools and hires.
Offer acceptance rate to track the percentage of job offers accepted by applicants.
Applicant satisfaction metrics to evaluate candidate experience with the recruitment process.

Why build a hiring metrics dashboard instead of buying one?

Many companies need custom hiring metrics dashboards because:

They want to elect the unique KPIs and data you want to see, and how you want to view it instead of trying to adapt your requirements to a pre-built solution.
They want to integrate this dashboard with their existing HR and recruitment systems, allowing for seamless data flow and improved efficiency.
Many off-the-shelf products are expensive and out of budget for the teams considering the ongoing subscription costs add up quickly.
Custom dashboards can be designed to meet the specific needs and preferences of users within the company, improving user experience, adoption as well as people’s productivity.
Developers, and compliance teams, want complete control over their data, ensuring it is stored and managed securely.
As a company grows, its recruitment needs and KPIs may change and a custom dashboard can be easily updated and scaled to accommodate these changes.

What are the challenges of building a hiring metrics dashboard?

Collecting and managing recruitment data from multiple sources, and ensuring data accuracy and consistency can be complex and time-consuming.
Building a dashboard requires engineering bandwidth as it involves a certain level of technical expertise, including knowledge of data visualization, data management, access controls, and more.
Integrating the dashboard with a company’s existing HR and recruitment systems can be a technical challenge and a time drain.
Designing a dashboard that is easy to use and provides meaningful insights requires a good understanding of frontend design principles and data visualization best practices.
Ensuring the security and privacy of recruitment and candidate data is a critical concern, and requires careful planning and implementation to prevent unauthorized access or breaches.
