| 3 | +================== |
| 4 | + |
| 5 | +The *Applicant Analysis* report allows recruiting departments to see which job positions have the |
| 6 | +most applicants, which have the most referrals, and how long it takes for applicants to move through |
| 7 | +the pipeline. |
| 8 | + |
| 9 | +Knowing how many applicants each specific job position has, along with statistics about how many are |
| 10 | +hired and refused, can provide valuable insights. This information can assist the recruiting team to |
| 11 | +pivot their strategies to acquire the most desirable candidates. |

| 13 | +Applicant analysis report |
| 14 | +========================= |
| 15 | + |
| 16 | +Start by navigating to :menuselection:`Recruitment app --> Reporting --> Applicant Analysis`. This |
| 17 | +presents a line chart of all applicants for the last year. |
| 18 | + |
| 19 | +Three separate color-coded metrics are presented: :guilabel:`In Progress`, :guilabel:`Hired`, and |
| 20 | +:guilabel:`Refused`. |
| 21 | + |
| 22 | +Hover the cursor over a month of the chart, and a pop-up window appears, displaying the specific |
| 23 | +numbers for that month. |

| 28 | +Pivot table view |
| 29 | +---------------- |
| 30 | + |
| 31 | +For a more detailed view of the information in the :guilabel:`Applicant Analysis` report, click the |
| 32 | +:icon:`oi-view-pivot` :guilabel:`(Pivot)` icon in the top-right corner. This displays all the |
| 33 | +information in a pivot table. |
| 34 | + |
| 35 | +In this view, the job positions are displayed in the rows, and the columns display the total numbers |
| 36 | +of applicants, including how many of those applicants were hired or refused, and who is still in the |
| 37 | +recruitment process. The displayed information can be modified, if desired. |
| 38 | + |
| 39 | +In this example, there are 18 total applicants. Out of that, six have been hired, two have been |
| 40 | +refused, and ten are still in the recruitment pipeline. The :guilabel:`Experienced Developer` |
| 41 | +position has six total applicants, three of which were hired, one refused, and to still in progress. |

| 46 | +Use case: applicants with referrals |
| 47 | +~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ |
| 48 | + |
| 49 | +To get a better understanding of how effective the company's :doc:`referral program <../referrals>` |
| 50 | +is, the :guilabel:`Applicant Analysis` report can be modified to show how many applicants were |
| 51 | +referred by current employees. |
| 52 | + |
| 53 | +From the :icon:`oi-view-pivot` :guilabel:`(Pivot)` view of the :guilabel:`Applicant Analysis` |
| 54 | +report, first click the :guilabel:`Measures` button to reveal a drop-down menu of options. |
| 55 | + |
| 56 | +Click both :guilabel:`Has Referrer` and :guilabel:`Count`, to activate those two measures. Then, |
| 57 | +click :guilabel:`Applicant`, :guilabel:`Hired`, :guilabel:`In Progress` and :guilabel:`Refused` to |
| 58 | +deactivate those default measures. |
| 59 | + |
| 60 | +Now, the column displays the number of applicants that came from a referral in the :guilabel:`Has |
| 61 | +Referrer` column, and the total number of applicants in the :guilabel:`Count` column. |
| 62 | + |
| 63 | +.. image:: applicant_analysis/referral.png |
| 64 | + :alt: The detailed pivot table view displaying the number of referrals and the total applicants. |
| 65 | + |
| 66 | +In this example, the :guilabel:`Experienced Developer` and :guilabel:`Interior Designer` job |
| 67 | +positions both have applicants from referrals, while the rest do not have any referrals. |
| 68 | + |
| 69 | +Hired through referrals |
| 70 | +*********************** |
| 71 | + |
| 72 | +It is possible to modify this report even further to see how many referred applicants end up being |
| 73 | +hired. |
| 74 | + |
| 75 | +To view this data, click on a :icon:`fa-plus-square` :guilabel:`[job position]` row, which reveals a |
| 76 | +drop-down menu. Then, click :guilabel:`State` to show the various states applicants are currently |
| 77 | +in. |
| 78 | + |
| 79 | +.. note:: |
| 80 | + Only states that have applicants in them are shown for each job position. If a state does **not** |
| 81 | + have any applicants, it does not appear in the list. |
| 82 | + |
| 83 | +To expand the other rows, and display the various states, click on the :icon:`fa-plus-square` |
| 84 | +:guilabel:`[job position]` button. |
| 85 | + |
| 86 | +.. image:: applicant_analysis/state.png |
| 87 | + :alt: The detailed pivot table view displaying applicants hired through referrals. |
| 88 | + |
| 89 | +Both the :guilabel:`Experienced Developer` and :guilabel:`Interior Designer` roles yielded one |
| 90 | +referral hire each, confirming that developers and designers generate the highest-success referrals. |
