IN SUPPORT OF METRICS

“Don’t trust your gut: use data to

predict and shape the future”- Laszlo Bock, SVP People Operations

Page 7: Back to School: The ABCs of Campus Recruiting Metrics

IN SUPPORT OF METRICS

The Language of Business• Sets you on equal footing with your departmental peers

Leadership Prefers Numbers• Especially at the “C” level, metrics are critical to capturing leadership’s

attention

Hard to Argue with Facts

• Increases the chances for success when support if necessary

Keeps Focus on What’s Important• Signals when it’s time to move on

Page 8: Back to School: The ABCs of Campus Recruiting Metrics

IMPORTANCE OF PLANNING

"Would you tell me, please, which way I ought to go from here?”

"That depends a good deal on where you want to get to," said the Cat.

"I don't much care where—" said Alice.

"Then it doesn't matter which way you go," said the Cat.

"—so long as I get SOMEWHERE," Alice added as an explanation.

"Oh, you're sure to do that," said the Cat, "if you only walk long enough."

- Lewis Carroll’s Alice in Wonderland

Page 9: Back to School: The ABCs of Campus Recruiting Metrics

IMPORTANCE OF PLANNING

“If you don’t know where you’re going,

how will you know you’ve arrived?”

Page 10: Back to School: The ABCs of Campus Recruiting Metrics

STRATEGIC PLANS

Why Invest in Strategic Planning

• Framework for decisions or for securing support/approval

• Assists in benchmarking & performance monitoring

• Keeps focus when distractions arise

• Provides a basis for more detailed planning

• Stimulates change and becomes building block for next plan

Page 11: Back to School: The ABCs of Campus Recruiting Metrics

STRATEGIC PLANS

Key Component: Strategic Goals

• They are intrinsic to planning

• Create the ideal measurement (metrics) opportunity

• Lends insight into actual vs. desired results

It’s How You’ll Know You’ve Arrived

Page 12: Back to School: The ABCs of Campus Recruiting Metrics

STRATEGIC PLANS

Strategic Goals: Components

• Defining Goal = “The What”

• Defining Execution Strategy= “The How”

• Defining Measureable Metrics = “The End Game”

Strategic Goal: Sample Goal

• Strategic Goal (The What)• Increase the number of interviewers certified to conduct interviews from

the current state of 20%

• Execution Strategy (The How)• Sponsor monthly interviewer training sessions

• Measureable Metric (The End Game)• Increase trained interviewers to 60% by year-end

METRICS - DIVING DEEPER

The Point Is….

Utilizing Metrics for the sake of metrics = Objective

Objective = Establish higher credibility within organization

Page 16: Back to School: The ABCs of Campus Recruiting Metrics

METRICS - DIVING DEEPER

Metrics Should Ideally:

• Clearly relate to goals and objectives

• Be self-generating and provide a leading or predictive indication of performance

• Integrate into a normal part of the business process

• Be unambiguous, actionable, and in your control

• Provide baseline from year to year
