Still measuring "time to fill"? It's time to shift to "time to hire"—the real measure of your candidate experience. 🕒 "Time to fill" might seem efficient, but it misses the candidate's perspective. How would applicants rate their journey with you? 🤔 "Time to hire" tracks every moment from application to hire. Break it down: application, screening, interviews, offer acceptance. 📊 Why care? Long silences make candidates feel ghosted and undervalued. They remember this and your brand suffers. 😬 It's not just speed. It's about engaging at every step. Imagine a journey with timely updates, insights, and genuine connections. 🚀 Ready to put candidate experience first? Start measuring "time to hire" and transform your employer brand. #RecruitmentStrategy #TimeToHire #CandidateExperience #EmployerBranding #HiringProcess #TalentAcquisition
