Advanced Reports in Recruiterflow allow you to visualize data through graphs, making it easier to analyze trends, compare performance, and present insights in a more intuitive way.
There are four different graph types available:
Tabular
Line Graph
Vertical Bar Graph
Horizontal Bar Graph
Here is a brief walkthrough of all these four types👇
The Four Graph Types & When to Use Them
1. Tabular View
The Tabular View presents data in a structured table format with rows and columns, providing a detailed breakdown of metrics.
Best Use Cases:
When you need detailed, numerical data that requires precise analysis.
Comparing multiple data points across different categories.
Analyzing individual recruiter performance (e.g., how many candidates each recruiter submitted).
Example:
A recruiting manager wants to compare the number of candidates sourced, submitted, and hired by each recruiter in the last quarter.
2. Line Graph
The Line Graph represents data as a continuous flow of points connected by lines, making it ideal for tracking changes over time.
Best Use Cases:
Identifying trends and patterns over time.
Measuring growth or decline in key metrics.
Analyzing recruiter performance trends, hiring speed, or revenue growth.
Example:
An operations leader wants to see the monthly trend of candidate submissions vs. hires to understand seasonal hiring fluctuations.
3. Vertical Bar Graph
The Vertical Bar Graph (or column chart) displays data with vertical bars, making it effective for side-by-side comparisons between categories.
✅ Best Use Cases:
Comparing performance across different recruiters, clients, or job types.
Identifying top-performing recruiters, companies, or industries.
Measuring hiring efficiency across job stages.
🛠 Example:
A business owner wants to compare revenue generated from different job types (contingent, retained, contract, etc.) in the last year.
4. Horizontal Bar Graph
Similar to a Vertical Bar Graph but with horizontal bars, this format is ideal for presenting ranked or categorical data.
✅ Best Use Cases:
Displaying ranked data in an easy-to-read format.
Showing candidate pipeline movement across job stages.
Analyzing disqualification reasons for candidates in different jobs.
🛠 Example:
A recruiting manager wants to see the calls made by their recruiter every week to track their KPIs.
