Our thoughtfully designed dashboard offers full automation, providing you with almost immediate access to key insights. Lets take a look at each of them below.
Key Hiring Metrics
For recruiters, understanding the effectiveness and efficiency of your recruitment process is vital. Our dashboard metrics provide precisely that insight!
Track the number of received applications and open positions, monitor offer statistics, and calculate the average time it takes to fill open roles. These insights inform critical hiring decisions, such as expediting the hiring process to reduce time-to-hire and more.
Recruitment Funnel
To know at which stage candidates are more likely to drop off is crucial. The recruitment funnel shows you just that:
Days taken for each stage
Determine whether there’s a bottleneck – if a specific stage in your recruitment process is causing significant delays and prolonging the time it takes to fill a job vacancy.

Source and Decline Reasons
Identify the application sources yielding higher-quality candidates by comparing the offer percentages from these channels. This assists in making informed decisions regarding your recruiting source channels.
Gaining insight into the causes of candidate rejections helps you identify application process shortcomings. Similarly, understanding why candidates decline your offers empowers you to align job descriptions or manage expectations effectively with your company’s leadership.
Once an opening is closed with a successful recruit, you can view the details of the new recruit with this visual:
