Posted: August 10th, 2009 | Author: justincutillo | Filed under: Applicant Tracking, Company News, Release Notes, Software | Tags: , , , , | No Comments »

We just made it faster and easier to analyze your recruiting program using Newton. Now you’ll see a tab on your home page called “Analytics” replacing the “Overview” tab. Click the Analytics tab to open a an interactive dashboard that will help you slice and dice you recruiting program. You can analyze your recruiting data based on a selected period of time or by job, or both.

This release, v3.6, is the first of several planned releases to tackle analytics. With a focus on measuring stage-to-stage metrics, we wanted to help our customers answer fundamental questions.

  • Where do I have bottlenecks?
  • Where can I get involved to make an immediate impact?
  • Is everyone in the process doing their part?
  • Am I spending money on the right resources?

Most importantly, we want to give our customers the power to know when something is going wrong before anyone else notices -to be proactive. After all, as John, our product manager, says, “an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.”

We hope you like it.
