Staffing Report Shows Data Analytics will Transform Recruitment in 2018

Last month we published our first Staffing Business Intelligence Report, revealing the changing role of data within a modern recruitment business. Based on a survey of 135 staffing businesses, the report investigates the current use of data in the recruitment industry and how that will all change in 2018.

Report Key Findings:

Despite 91% of agencies using data in some shape or form to influence their decisions, almost half question its accuracy or accessibility.

Further findings suggest that almost a third of agencies lose time each week to reporting, with an additional third believing that poor processes restrict their growth.

The report continues to state that 38% of agencies would like to do far more with their data. In 2018, this will involve looking past the headline figures to understand the mechanics of how their company operates.

To make the right decisions at the right time businesses need on-demand access to accurate data. This means completely overhauling the current approach to data analytics in the recruitment industry.”

The report confirms that agencies want to turn their data into actionable intelligence, but many are unsure how.

To identify the metrics and behaviours that are responsible for driving improved performance, recruiters are increasingly partnering with established technology providers to unlock the insights they need.
