Love this. I wish more recruiters were this data-driven.


Since Hired is a marketplace, it's a lot easier for us to analyze data because:

1.) Data is stored in a central database, and not across dozens of email accounts, LinkedIn Recruiter accounts, etc.

2.) Working with over 1100 companies, and hundreds of candidates every week, we have a huge sample size to draw on

3.) We actually have a full time Business Intelligence Analyst on our team, and we subscribe to data analysis tools such as "Looker" to build internal dashboards, and metrics which help us drive marketplace efficiency... we also have a Data Scientist on staff, whom we found on Hired (naturally!)


Hard enough for most recruiters to read a resume, in my experience.
