It enables you to envision how the achievement of the current hiring plan will impact the size and headcount cost distribution across different departments, teams, locations, and roles after the closing of the requisitions.

Selection

Candidate Journey

A metric within the Talent Acquisition story chapter.

Definition

Candidate Journey visualizes the path your candidates take to get hired. The size of each stream flowing from stage to stage represents the number of candidates.

Insight to

We tend to think of our recruitment process as a funnel. That's the ideal stage where we would want it to be - it allows us to deliver consistent candidate experience and equal assessment possibilities. If your candidate journey shows inconsistency across different organizational units, the shape of the graph will deviate from the standard funnel appearance.

How we calculate this

Nodes represent the stages you defined in your ATS, while streams are simple counts of candidates moving through recruitment stages. The width of each stream represents the number of candidates in the flow.
