What changed in recruiting in 2024? To start the New Year, we dug into over 31M applications and 95K jobs in our newly updated report on Recruiter Productivity to better answer this question. We last released this report in August 2023 to understand rapidly shifting recruiter priorities following years of change in the industry. Here’s a sneak peak at some of the changes observed: 📉 After hitting a low of ~4.3 Hires per Recruiter per quarter by early 2023, the number of Hires per Recruiter in 2024 stabilized at around ~5.4 hires. 📈 In 2024, teams interviewed ~40% more candidates per hire for both business and technical roles than in 2021. We believe this is likely a reflection of the growing emphasis on Quality of Hire in 2025. 📊 There are far more job seekers applying to new roles posted, as seen through Applications per Hire tripling from 2021 to 2024.

🎉 New feature: Send Alert and Scheduled Dashboard Notification Emails to Groups You can now send Alerts and Scheduled Dashboards to all recipients as a group, instead of sending separate emails to each person. As a reminder, Alerts in Ashby will notify users based on rules you set up for your recruiting data. We have a full template library with pre-built alerts like “Feedback Submission SLA breached", “Referrals Delayed in Application Review”, and 30+ more. Scheduled Dashboards deliver your data on a set interval and provide visibility and accountability across your metrics. Dashboards and Alert notifications are often the trigger for conversations that require collaboration and action. By using the new “Group email” option when sending these notifications you can reply directly to the notification, keeping everyone in the loop and maintaining context.

🆕 AI-Assisted Application Review Update: Filter By Answered Questions Now, Ashby’s AI-Assisted Application Review helps you quickly filter candidates based on whether they’ve actually answered your application questions. This helps you save time during review by making it easier to parse through low-effort answers like “N/A” or generic, non-answers. Here’s how it works: 📄 Select the application questions you want to analyze. ✅ The AI-powered analysis will provide a "meets/does not meet" criteria surfacing whether the applicant provided a meaningful response. 👀 Use these filters to organize and review similar applications at scale. Built on our existing AI-Assisted Application Review framework, you’ll have citations, the option to flag analysis, and confidence knowing this feature has undergone the proper review to ensure it can be responsibly integrated into your workflow. Give it a try and keep your inbound channels focused, efficient, and ready to connect with the best candidates!
