Recruit / Retain 1.0

Ask

What are the baseline measures, metrics, and reports that we need to have to measure performance in recruiting and retention?

Specs

Aspen has developed a group of measures that every employer should be able to track regarding recruiting and retention, and has placed that methodology into a 3 level system.

1.0 includes such measures such as New Openings, Cancelled Openings, Time to Offer Accept, Time to Hire, Time to Start, Active Openings, Attribution / Source, Candidate Funnel/Conversions, Interview demographics, Hiring Manager Satisfaction, Hires, Referrals, Candidate Experience Ratings, Recruiter Engagement Ratings, Sponsored Advertisements, Candidate Abandonment, Assessments Completed, Applicant Demographics, Third Party Expenses, Job Abandonment, Attrition, and Internal Hire Percentage. A full list can be found within our curriculum and our members platform.

Details

Employers will receive files with all the appropriate data already blended and ready for updating and visualization in either Microsoft Power BI or Tableau. The files will be connected to either cloud based sources provided by the client or localized copies that can be updated by the client directly. Visual charts will be executed per Aspen standards but will be colored and labeled to the client’s brand specifications.

Recruit / Retain 2.0

Ask

Why do candidates, applicants, and employees come to our organization, experience it, say yes to joining it, stay and learn, and then possibly leave?

Specs

This group of measures is the next group to be addressed after 1.0 is executed. 2.0 is very focused on candidates, applicants, and employees.

The measures reveal demographics, attribution, experiences, costs, retention reasoning, tenure, mobility, promotions, and exiting. Again, these measures are listed in our curriculum available on AIHR.com and within our members platform.

Details

As with 1.0, employers will receive files with all the appropriate data already blended and ready for updating and visualization in either Microsoft Power BI or Tableau.

The files will be connected to either cloud based sources provided by the client or localized copies that can be updated by the client directly. The data here is faster and wider than 1.0, and employers should be prepared to update data at least weekly. Visual charts will be executed per Aspen standards but will be colored and labeled to the client’s brand specifications.

Recruit / Retain 3.0

Ask

What do we prescribe to recruiting and HR team members in order to sustain high levels of performance and efficiency while staying unbiased and fair to applicants and employees?

Specs

Details

This group of measures is the next group to be addressed after 2.0 is executed. As with 1.0 and 2.0, employers will receive files with all the appropriate data already blended and ready for updating and visualization in either Microsoft Power BI or Tableau.

Additional data beyond the applicant tracking, recruitment marketing, and surveys are a requirement for this level. Clients will also be sharing data from the HRIS, ERP, engagement, and financial ledger. The files will be connected to either cloud based sources provided by the client or localized copies that can be updated by the client directly. Visual charts will be executed per Aspen standards but will be colored and labeled to the client’s brand specifications.

Recruiting ROI

Ask

Are we utilizing our recruitment spend and recruiters wisely?

Specs

Aspen has a comprehensive cost and expense tracking model, based on the ANSI cost per hire standard. Tracking internal costs, external costs, staffing, and then the return is old hat to Aspen and its team. The founder was one of the primary authors of the standard, and Aspen has been using it to drive 20 to 30% savings in businesses since its inception.

Measures include ROI, costs of recruiting, investment for each candidate stage and candidate progression, and linking directly back to operation goals, provided those goals and investments are granted to Aspen.

RPO Audit

Ask

Is our partner doing as we instructed? Are the service levels competitive? Are we owed any refunds for missed service level agreements?

Specs

Using a proprietary set of algorithms called “Forensic Recruiting Analysis”, we can audit quickly whether or not your outsourcing organizations are performing the work they say they are. Rather than enabling the vendor to provide their own reporting on their effectiveness, we provide an unbiased view of their performance. It our position that regular audits make the partnership with RPO or HRO stronger, not necessarily placing the partnership at risk.

Bias, Diversity, Sales

Ask

Are we making fair and unbiased decisions in our hires?

Specs

It is not easy to understand bias or sentiment of an audience – especially candidates and new hires. However, looking for patterns of data that may indicate bias against certain demographics can be patterned and investigated – and that starts with data and workflow analysis. Our analysts will understand patterns that might indicate bias against several profiles of candidates, and seek out if those biases are individualized, the exception, or actually reinforced or predictable.
