Recruitment dashboard examples

A recruitment dashboard tracks the full hiring funnel — from employer brand interest and applications to candidates moving through each stage. It keeps recruiters and hiring managers aligned on where the pipeline stands and where there's pressure to move faster.

Recruitment dashboard

Build your own Recruitment dashboard

This dashboard is designed to give everyone in the company, particularly hiring managers, a clear understanding of the recruitment process, without needing to constantly request information from HR or the recruitment team.

By tracking Average Days to Hire, which measures the average number of days it takes a single candidate to move through the entire process, hiring managers can set transparent expectations for potential candidates. Similarly, tracking Average Days to Fill allows the HR team to propose realistic timeframes to management, improving resource allocation and timely recruitment.

The dashboard also helps to set expectations on the cost of recruitment, as well as the most productive places to focus hiring efforts. Finally, it provides a live update on the number of candidates who have applied and their progress through each stage of the hiring process. This facilitates keeping everyone updated with how open positions are progressing, without requiring colleagues to request this information manually.

Focus area: Hiring timeframes, progress of open positions
Who uses it: HR Manager, Hiring Manager, Senior leadership
How often: Several times a week
Data sources: SQL Database, Google Sheets, Excel, Spreadsheets

Recruitment KPIs dashboard

Build your own Recruitment KPIs dashboard

This dashboard provides a similar overview of the recruitment process but is more goal-oriented, particularly in relation to the internal recruitment team's OKRs (Objectives and Key Results). As a growing business, it’s vital for this People Team to maintain hiring momentum in line with company growth. This dashboard enables the Head of People to see if the team is on track and serves as motivation as they work towards filling new roles.

The dashboard features insights into the hiring process in more detail. For instance, as the company shifts away from fully remote working, the number of onsite interviews can be tracked against virtual interviews conducted via Zoom. Qualitative candidate feedback also serves as a check on how candidates respond to the process.

Focus area: Hiring progress, OKRs
Who uses it: HR Director, CEO, Recruitment Team
How often: Several times a week
Data sources: SQL Database, Google Sheets, Spreadsheets, Monday

Careers page analytics dashboard

Build your own Careers page analytics dashboard

This dashboard focuses on the digital experience for potential candidates. It tracks the number of sessions to the careers page (an important indicator of the health of the company’s ‘employer branding’) as well as the top sources driving that traffic.

A gauge icon indicates the completion rate of the application form. A negative status indicator may trigger if the application completion rate declines below the HR manager’s acceptable level, possibly indicating a User Experience issue with the form or that the attracted users are less engaged.

Additionally, the dashboard tracks the number of applicants progressing through each stage for the five open vacancies, serving as a helpful information source for anyone interested in the progress of a particular open position.

Focus area: Careers page user experience, hiring progress
Who uses it: HR Manager, Digital Marketing team
How often: Several times a week
Data sources: Google Analytics, Google Sheets, Excel, SQL Database
