Cost per Hire Report

A human resources manager is tasked with determining why the IT department's overall referral costs are lower than any other department, despite the fact that their referral bonuses are the highest in the company. He runs a Cost per Hire report and sees that all of the IT department's referral fees are internal costs because all hires within the past six months have been internal referrals. The department's internal referral costs are 70% lower than the process of hiring externally, which the report indicates is the general practice of all other departments. He proposes a cross-functional project designed to increase internal referrals and reduce overall hiring costs.
To access the Cost per Hire report, go to Standard Reports > Recruitment.
