Analysis
Departmental Performance
Recruitment success varies across departments, with IT and Sales departments observing the highest number of successful hires. Conversely, the Marketing department experienced several challenges, largely attributed to insufficient qualified candidates and a longer recruitment process.
Effectiveness of Recruitment Channels
The company utilized multiple recruitment channels, with employee referrals yielding the highest quality candidates. However, online job boards, though reaching more candidates, had a lower conversion rate of quality hires.

Strategic Recommendations
Enhance Candidate Experience

Optimize Recruitment Channels
Investing more in successful channels like employee referrals and revisiting the strategy for underperforming channels such as online job boards is recommended.
Leverage Technology
Implementing advanced applicant tracking systems can further streamline the recruitment process and contribute to reduced Time to Hire.
Focus on Employer Branding
Strengthening the company’s presence on social media and career platforms can attract more top talent and improve the overall quality of applicants.
Conclusion
