How many of us in recruiting are getting too caught up in recruitment metrics these days?  We seem to feel that having data on every move a recruiter makes will lead to a better recruitment function.  Are we focused on too many metrics in recruitment and are we in fact slowing down the overall effectiveness of our function by creating a too heavily measured environment?  And do our business leaders really care about all of these metrics?

Hello everyone. Do you have a strong recruitment activity reporting template or metrics dashboard for leadership audiences that you are able to share? No confidential or privileged info please. I am only looking for formats and templates that I can use as reference points to assist me in developing a solution for Aon Consulting recruitment.

Cheers. Shane
