Source, Recruit, and Select Employees
Like other areas of human capital management, assessing the recruiting and hiring processes can make it easier for organizations to draw meaningful comparisons with world-class organizations. Without well-defined, industry-standard metrics, it is impossible for anyone to know how a recruiting process is performing or if it is getting better.

APQC’s source, recruit, and select employees assessment provides metrics and practices that can unearth new opportunities of high relevance to senior HR recruiters and managers and directors of global talent acquisitions, talent management, and work force planning. For example, there is a significant difference between top and bottom performers regarding the cost per new hire. Although organizations want to manage their cost per new hire through effective sourcing and recruiting mechanisms, this metric must also be balanced against maintaining a high quality of employee and high retention rates among top performers.
