This is one of the most important questions a sales organization can ask.
If there are very few relevant candidates entering the funnel, you likely have a candidate supply problem.
If candidates are interested but managers are slow to contact them, interviews are difficult to schedule, candidates fail to show, or few interviews turn into hires, the bottleneck may be farther downstream.
Our Hiring Funnel Analytics service is designed to make the stages we can reliably observe more visible.
Depending on the services you use, reporting can include:
Candidates Sourced → Applications → Interested Candidates → Contact Information Captured → Pre-Qualified → Interviews Scheduled → Verified Hires
We cannot independently determine whether a manager called a candidate unless that information is provided by the client, so we do not pretend that we can.
Instead, we focus reporting on measurable activity and use the client's monthly HR new-hire information to verify hiring outcomes.
For organizations that want the clearest view of the process, we typically recommend combining:
- Candidate Sourcing
- Interview Scheduling + Reminders
- Hiring Funnel Analytics
That helps answer a much more useful question than simply asking, “Are we getting enough applicants?”
It helps determine where your sales hiring process is actually breaking down.
