5 key insights
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
1. The case for referrals has
never been stronger
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
7
1in every 16referred
candidates is hired
Making referrals almost
10xmore efficient than
applicants
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
8
One catch with referrals? Volume.
Referrals represent 16percent
of all hires
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
9
Boost referrals
● Create a checklist of what to
do when a new role opens up
● Help referrers provide context
(i.e. have they spoken to the
candidate, are they
active/passive, fit for multiple
roles, etc.)
● Keep referrers in the loop.
Create email templates to
update them
● Give kudos, celebrate wins
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
10
Lever referral form
Factors that can hold employees
back from referring:
● I don’t want to be judged for a bad
referrals
● I hope the recruiter doesn’t think I’ve
actually spoken with this person. That’d
be awkward..
● I’m not sure what role this person is best
fit for. How do I give context?
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
Remember: Preserve diversity as you
scale referrals
11
#hiringmetrics @lever
2. Sourcing has gone
mainstream
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
13
Sourcing is the second most
common source of hire across
companies of all sizes
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
14
Move from reactive to proactive sourcing
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
15
Build future-focused talent pipelines
Build candidate personas Engage passive candidates
with relevant content
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
3. Engineering hires are the
least likely to have applied
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
17
Engineers are the likeliest to
come in via agency (5%) and
second likeliest to be sourced
(37%)
They are the least likely to be
applicants – just 38% of
hires apply
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
18
Recruit your unfair share of
top engineering talent
● Leverage your leadership
● Understand their language
● #Fightspam
● Build a brand
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
4. Project management is
emerging as toughest role to fill
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
A few observations for the Product Manager
recruitment process
Third largest
candidate to hire
ratio
162 candidates per
hire
Second most
number of
interviews
5.7 interviewers on
average per hire
Longest time to hire
Median of 42 days
from when a
candidate enters
your pipeline to
hired
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
5. Candidate archiving is a
huge missed opportunity
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
22
Turn your database from a
graveyard into a goldmine
#hiringmetrics
@ProactiveTalent @Lever
23
“I’m an ATS
graveyard person.
I’ve never been
hired for a job that I
applied to.”
