Time to Hire Calculator

What is a Time to Hire Calculator?

Calculate key recruitment velocity metrics: **Time to Fill** (days from job opening approval to offer acceptance) and **Time to Hire** (days from candidate application to offer acceptance). Identifies stage bottlenecks across sourcing, screening, interviewing, and offer stages.

Why Use This Tool?

  • Recruitment Bottleneck Identification: Pinpoint which hiring stage (screening, technical interview, manager feedback) causes delays.
  • Team Productivity Benchmarking: Track recruiter pipeline velocity month-over-month.
  • Candidate Experience Optimization: Reduce long hiring timelines to prevent losing top talent to competitors.

How to Use

  1. Enter Job Requisition Approval Date, Application Date, and Offer Acceptance Date.
  2. Enter stage durations (Screening days, Interview days, Offer decision days).
  3. View calculated Time to Fill, Time to Hire, and stage bottleneck analysis.

Real Working Example

Input:

Req Approved: Jan 1 | Application: Jan 10 | Offer Accepted: Jan 30

Output Result:

Time to Fill: 29 Days | Time to Hire: 20 Days | Bottleneck: Technical Interview Stage (12 Days)
