Thousands of applications start flowing in. You begin your day scanning each and every resume manually- you read about their individual skills, education, work experience, etc.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Now, let\u2019s take a month\u2019s leap. Well, you\u2019re doing the same thing and now, but now you\u2019re thoroughly frustrated and exhausted. And eventually, as you call up the shortlisted candidates for an interview, they have already found a job somewhere else. And now you are busy trying to figure out where you lost your productivity and how it still did not give fruitful results.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What a perfect example of more hard work and less returns.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This is exactly why the traditional means of recruiting required major enhancement. In addition, manual hiring faces other challenges like gut-based decision making, lack of knowledge around technical aspects of the hiring, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thanks to the latest tech-driven hiring models, recruitment has received the push it required. The gathering\/screening of candidate data and conducting the entire process becomes a lot more convenient. Recruitment has received a good amount of support in terms of tech. But, it requires further analytical processing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The usage of that data remains inefficient in plenty of organizations. Here is where data-driven hiring comes to play.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-what-is-data-driven-recruitment\">What is Data-driven Recruitment?<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>Too much data inflow and lack of efficient use of the same is a common challenge all companies face. A data-driven approach helps organizations process the data \u2018usefully\u2019.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, in terms of hiring, through this data, HR professionals can figure out:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>The platform where most candidates apply.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The exact area where most candidates lose interest in applying for your company.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>The reason behind a low response rate, and a lot more.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_77 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-light-blue ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/blog.springworks.in\/the-role-of-data-and-tech-advancements-in-ensuring-hiring-success\/#Data_and_technology_go_hand_in_hand\" >Data and technology go hand in hand:&nbsp;<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/blog.springworks.in\/the-role-of-data-and-tech-advancements-in-ensuring-hiring-success\/#Things_to_remember_while_advancing_recruitment_Insights_from_TSOW_Podcast\" >Things to remember while advancing recruitment (Insights from TSOW Podcast):<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/blog.springworks.in\/the-role-of-data-and-tech-advancements-in-ensuring-hiring-success\/#The_three_tiers_of_hiring_concerns\" >The three tiers of hiring concerns:<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/blog.springworks.in\/the-role-of-data-and-tech-advancements-in-ensuring-hiring-success\/#The_idea_behind_advanced_recruiting\" >The idea behind advanced recruiting:<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/blog.springworks.in\/the-role-of-data-and-tech-advancements-in-ensuring-hiring-success\/#Where_should_we_implement_tech-driven_recruitment\" >Where should we implement tech-driven recruitment?<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/blog.springworks.in\/the-role-of-data-and-tech-advancements-in-ensuring-hiring-success\/#The_transformation_is_more_about_people_and_less_of_techdata\" >The transformation is more about people and less of tech\/data<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/blog.springworks.in\/the-role-of-data-and-tech-advancements-in-ensuring-hiring-success\/#Hiring_is_in_its_transition_phase\" >Hiring is in its transition phase:<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"#\" data-href=\"https:\/\/blog.springworks.in\/the-role-of-data-and-tech-advancements-in-ensuring-hiring-success\/#Data_collection_isnt_enough_act_on_it\" >Data collection isn\u2019t enough;

We have so many resources which make the entire recruitment process convenient and faster for us.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Sourcing candidates, contacting them, giving out the assignments, all of this has become a matter of one-click now. Finding out a good fit for the organization has become a lot easier.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal should be to assess the data effectively. There are plenty of points to consider while hiring a candidate: \u201c<em>How would the person fit?\u201d, \u201cWhat are the options here?\u201d<\/em>, and so on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>According to Mike, assessing data every day is mandatory for recruiters to find the response rate they achieve, the number of candidates contacted and selected, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>He divides the recruitment concerns into three tiers:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1st tier:<\/strong> To keep a track of the source of the CVs. Not all organizations adopt an ATS to facilitate this process. They are simply using google sheets to fulfill the purpose manually.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2nd tier:<\/strong> The next step should be mailing passive candidates. Mike suggests automated messaging campaigns for the same.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3rd tier:<\/strong> A major step is to record these applications and conversations into the ATS. Moreover, the ATS should connect to the HR system to ensure transparency. Additionally, the HR department stays constantly updated with the data as well.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-social-links is-layout-flex wp-block-social-links-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"wp-social-link wp-social-link-spotify  wp-block-social-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/episode\/27I9TEW8I5QbXiyemF981f?si=TWnXqSdCT4mAklsgOiLklw\" class=\"wp-block-social-link-anchor\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M12,2C6.477,2,2,6.477,2,12c0,5.523,4.477,10,10,10c5.523,0,10-4.477,10-10C22,6.477,17.523,2,12,2 M16.586,16.424 c-0.18,0.295-0.563,0.387-0.857,0.207c-2.348-1.435-5.304-1.76-8.785-0.964c-0.335,0.077-0.67-0.133-0.746-0.469 c-0.077-0.335,0.132-0.67,0.469-0.746c3.809-0.871,7.077-0.496,9.713,1.115C16.673,15.746,16.766,16.13,16.586,16.424 M17.81,13.7 c-0.226,0.367-0.706,0.482-1.072,0.257c-2.687-1.652-6.785-2.131-9.965-1.166C6.36,12.917,5.925,12.684,5.8,12.273 C5.675,11.86,5.908,11.425,6.32,11.3c3.632-1.102,8.147-0.568,11.234,1.328C17.92,12.854,18.035,13.335,17.81,13.7 M17.915,10.865 c-3.223-1.914-8.54-2.09-11.618-1.156C5.804,9.859,5.281,9.58,5.131,9.086C4.982,8.591,5.26,8.069,5.755,7.919 c3.532-1.072,9.404-0.865,13.115,1.338c0.445,0.264,0.59,0.838,0.327,1.282C18.933,10.983,18.359,11.129,17.915,10.865\"><\/path><\/svg><span class=\"wp-block-social-link-label screen-reader-text\">Spotify<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"wp-social-link wp-social-link-linkedin  wp-block-social-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/batmanrecruiter\/\" class=\"wp-block-social-link-anchor\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M19.7,3H4.3C3.582,3,3,3.582,3,4.3v15.4C3,20.418,3.582,21,4.3,21h15.4c0.718,0,1.3-0.582,1.3-1.3V4.3 C21,3.582,20.418,3,19.7,3z M8.339,18.338H5.667v-8.59h2.672V18.338z M7.004,8.574c-0.857,0-1.549-0.694-1.549-1.548 c0-0.855,0.691-1.548,1.549-1.548c0.854,0,1.547,0.694,1.547,1.548C8.551,7.881,7.858,8.574,7.004,8.574z M18.339,18.338h-2.669 v-4.177c0-0.996-0.017-2.278-1.387-2.278c-1.389,0-1.601,1.086-1.601,2.206v4.249h-2.667v-8.59h2.559v1.174h0.037 c0.356-0.675,1.227-1.387,2.526-1.387c2.703,0,3.203,1.779,3.203,4.092V18.338z\"><\/path><\/svg><span class=\"wp-block-social-link-label screen-reader-text\">LinkedIn<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"wp-social-link wp-social-link-chain  wp-block-social-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/48-mike-batman-cohen-on-the-clear-data-driven\/id1572231455?i=1000530480779\" class=\"wp-block-social-link-anchor\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M15.6,7.2H14v1.5h1.6c2,0,3.7,1.7,3.7,3.7s-1.7,3.7-3.7,3.7H14v1.5h1.6c2.8,0,5.2-2.3,5.2-5.2,0-2.9-2.3-5.2-5.2-5.2zM4.7,12.4c0-2,1.7-3.7,3.7-3.7H10V7.2H8.4c-2.9,0-5.2,2.3-5.2,5.2,0,2.9,2.3,5.2,5.2,5.2H10v-1.5H8.4c-2,0-3.7-1.7-3.7-3.7zm4.6.9h5.3v-1.5H9.3v1.5z\"><\/path><\/svg><span class=\"wp-block-social-link-label screen-reader-text\">Link<\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-idea-behind-advanced-recruiting\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_idea_behind_advanced_recruiting\"><\/span>The idea behind advanced recruiting:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We also discussed advanced recruitment with another guest, <a href=\"https:\/\/theshapeofwork.buzzsprout.com\/1741873\/9127812-102-on-team-building-recruitment-tech-employee-time-tracking-and-overtime-compensation-with-ambica-chaturvedi\">Ambica Chaturvedi<\/a> (Director of Human Capital and Special Initiatives at Antara Senior Living), who is personally very excited about the advancement of technology in the HR space.

She states three major areas to implement the same:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Scheduling:<\/strong> Even in the biggest of MNCs, HR professionals need to call up their managers and the candidates individually to schedule an interview. It can lead to a delay in the entire process and the meetings. Ultimately, it results in a poor <a href=\"https:\/\/springrecruit.com\/blog\/improve-candidate-experience\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">candidate experience<\/a>. It can be reduced through the availability of efficient scheduling software.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Feedback:<\/strong> Many startups still have a paper feedback system. There is a need for an automated feedback process to help store it and continue the process conveniently. An easy example would be an instant email asking for feedback from the candidate right after their interview.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Rejection:<\/strong> Meetika highlights that digitization is required to inform candidates about their rejection. The practice of ghosting the candidates is still prevailing in plenty of companies. Giving them a heads-up enhances the experience of the candidates.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meetika says that more digitization requires a lot less tracking. There is a proper system for the same. Hence, HR professionals can do more influential tasks with the time they save accordingly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-social-links is-layout-flex wp-block-social-links-is-layout-flex\"><li class=\"wp-social-link wp-social-link-spotify  wp-block-social-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/episode\/4guDyeauGOUlgcsuCsKuET?si=1Ti_uH6JQ2mkAQvTrcgL0w\" class=\"wp-block-social-link-anchor\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M12,2C6.477,2,2,6.477,2,12c0,5.523,4.477,10,10,10c5.523,0,10-4.477,10-10C22,6.477,17.523,2,12,2 M16.586,16.424 c-0.18,0.295-0.563,0.387-0.857,0.207c-2.348-1.435-5.304-1.76-8.785-0.964c-0.335,0.077-0.67-0.133-0.746-0.469 c-0.077-0.335,0.132-0.67,0.469-0.746c3.809-0.871,7.077-0.496,9.713,1.115C16.673,15.746,16.766,16.13,16.586,16.424 M17.81,13.7 c-0.226,0.367-0.706,0.482-1.072,0.257c-2.687-1.652-6.785-2.131-9.965-1.166C6.36,12.917,5.925,12.684,5.8,12.273 C5.675,11.86,5.908,11.425,6.32,11.3c3.632-1.102,8.147-0.568,11.234,1.328C17.92,12.854,18.035,13.335,17.81,13.7 M17.915,10.865 c-3.223-1.914-8.54-2.09-11.618-1.156C5.804,9.859,5.281,9.58,5.131,9.086C4.982,8.591,5.26,8.069,5.755,7.919 c3.532-1.072,9.404-0.865,13.115,1.338c0.445,0.264,0.59,0.838,0.327,1.282C18.933,10.983,18.359,11.129,17.915,10.865\"><\/path><\/svg><span class=\"wp-block-social-link-label screen-reader-text\">Spotify<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"wp-social-link wp-social-link-linkedin  wp-block-social-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/meetika-malhotra\/\" class=\"wp-block-social-link-anchor\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M19.7,3H4.3C3.582,3,3,3.582,3,4.3v15.4C3,20.418,3.582,21,4.3,21h15.4c0.718,0,1.3-0.582,1.3-1.3V4.3 C21,3.582,20.418,3,19.7,3z M8.339,18.338H5.667v-8.59h2.672V18.338z M7.004,8.574c-0.857,0-1.549-0.694-1.549-1.548 c0-0.855,0.691-1.548,1.549-1.548c0.854,0,1.547,0.694,1.547,1.548C8.551,7.881,7.858,8.574,7.004,8.574z M18.339,18.338h-2.669 v-4.177c0-0.996-0.017-2.278-1.387-2.278c-1.389,0-1.601,1.086-1.601,2.206v4.249h-2.667v-8.59h2.559v1.174h0.037 c0.356-0.675,1.227-1.387,2.526-1.387c2.703,0,3.203,1.779,3.203,4.092V18.338z\"><\/path><\/svg><span class=\"wp-block-social-link-label screen-reader-text\">LinkedIn<\/span><\/a><\/li>\n\n<li class=\"wp-social-link wp-social-link-chain  wp-block-social-link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/170-meetika-malhotra-on-hr-tech-trends-untapped-potential\/id1572231455?i=1000547729749\" class=\"wp-block-social-link-anchor\"><svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.1\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" aria-hidden=\"true\" focusable=\"false\"><path d=\"M15.6,7.2H14v1.5h1.6c2,0,3.7,1.7,3.7,3.7s-1.7,3.7-3.7,3.7H14v1.5h1.6c2.8,0,5.2-2.3,5.2-5.2,0-2.9-2.3-5.2-5.2-5.2zM4.7,12.4c0-2,1.7-3.7,3.7-3.7H10V7.2H8.4c-2.9,0-5.2,2.3-5.2,5.2,0,2.9,2.3,5.2,5.2,5.2H10v-1.5H8.4c-2,0-3.7-1.7-3.7-3.7zm4.6.9h5.3v-1.5H9.3v1.5z\"><\/path><\/svg><span class=\"wp-block-social-link-label screen-reader-text\">Link<\/span><\/a><\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-the-transformation-is-more-about-people-and-less-of-tech-data\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"The_transformation_is_more_about_people_and_less_of_techdata\"><\/span>The transformation is more about people and less of tech\/data<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.itransition.com\/blog\/hr-digital-transformation\">Digital transformation<\/a> plays a catalyst role in hiring just the right set of people in an organization.

The challenge is to use and convert it into necessary analytics.\u201d<\/em>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These factors did not receive a significant amount of attention for quite a long time. Today, we have tech which can offer useful analytics: where do the employees come from, how do they perform, what is their next step, etc.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The analysis is not the only step; it requires further assistance. You found a specific pattern in your hiring process. What next? Does this work in every situation?&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data-based decisions are going to be fairer. You can draw effective initiatives to target those segments.

It can allow you to be more attentive towards those for further requirements. To streamline this evaluation process, tools like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zenrows.com\/\">ZenRows<\/a> can automate the collection of structured data from various job boards and sourcing platforms.
