Introducing: Hiring Friction
A new approach to describing recruitment performance.
What is Hiring Friction?
A measure of hiring capability effectiveness that assesses how well candidates enter, flow and exit the recruitment funnel
Typical High Friction example:
An inefficient and slow process where great candidates exit early, perhaps because of a poor experience, and poor candidates exit late
Typical Low Friction example:
A productive process operating at high speed with the right candidates getting through to the right stage, and where all candidates believe they were treated well and fairly
