Time in stage analysis¶
The Time In Stage Analysis report provides information on how long applicants stay in each stage of the recruitment process. This is important, as every job position has specific process details that state the length of time applicants should expect to wait between specific stages.
Knowing how long applicants remain in each stage can help highlight possible bottlenecks. Analyzing this data allows the recruitment team to assess each stage, identify any issues, and pivot their strategies to move applicants through each stage, within the expected time interval.
