The Days in Status metric helps you see exactly how long each job has been sitting in each stage of your pipeline. It gives you the visibility you need to identify bottlenecks, improve hiring speed, and manage your recruiting process more effectively.
Why It Matters
Hiring speed is critical to making great hires. But when jobs slow down, it's not always obvious where the delays are happening. Without clear visibility into time spent in each stage, improving your process often turns into guesswork.
With the Days in Status metric, you can:
Pinpoint stage-level delays to reduce time-to-fill
Help recruiters and hiring managers focus where it matters
Understand average time per stage to improve forecasting and job aging predictions
