Reasons for Rejection Report

The Reasons for Rejection Report is designed to summarize the reasons you are rejecting applicants, and can be broken down by position, recruiter, manager, department, or location.

To access reports go to Admin -> Reports. Reports are typically only available to administrator and recruiter users, but admins can grant/remove access from any user group. Select one of the reports under Reasons for Rejection.

Select the position(s) to report on. You can select all positions, all open positions, all closed positions, or an individual position. The "Positions containing keyword" field can be used to select multiple positions. For example, "Sales" would select all positions with "Sales" in the title.

Select the location(s) and department(s). These options allow you to generate a "two-dimensional" report. For example. you could select Metrics by Recruiter and then a single location to compare activity by all your recruiters in that location.

Select the date range. For positions the report will contain data on any positions open during that range. For applicants the report will contain data on any applicants active during that range.

Click Run Report.

The graphical report shows the percentages for each Reason.

The raw data is also displayed in a table format. This data can then be printed or exported to Excel for further data manipulation and graphical reports.

 

The columns of data displayed are as follows:

  1. The report selected (position, recruiter, etc.)
  2. *** For Reasons by Position you will have additional columns displaying location, screener, manager, status, etc. Also any custom fields will be displayed for Reasons by Position.
  3. The total number of applicants who applied during the date range
  4. Of the applicants who applied, the number still active (with an active link to the Applicants Table)
  5. Of the applicants who applied, the number closed
  6. The number of applicants who failed a pass/fail question
  7. A column for each reason for rejection in your company list. This column will display the total number of applicants who were failed for that reason.
  8. The values in light blue are clickable links which will take you to the Applicants' Table and display that group of applicants.

You can use the configuration button on the table to display/hide the columns of data you want in your report. You can also move any column by clicking on the column title and dragging to a new location on the table.

 

You can also save and load your reports. You can load any report saved by yourself or any other user. If you make changes remember to hit Save to save those changes. If you try to save a report you loaded from another user it will not change their report, but instead will save a new report under your name. To create a new report just enter the name in the Save As box and then hit Save.
