Why it’s important to evaluate your talent acquisition program

With nearly 9 million jobs left unfilled in the U.S. over the past year, employers continue to face mounting challenges in attracting and hiring the talent they need. While external factors like labor shortages and shifting candidate expectations play a role, internal recruiting effectiveness is often the bigger obstacle.

Outdated processes, underused technology, and misaligned strategies can silently undermine even the most well-intentioned hiring efforts. Many organizations don’t realize they’re creating barriers—slowing down hiring, missing top candidates, or delivering a poor candidate experience.

That’s why regularly evaluating your recruitment program isn’t just helpful—it’s essential. The Recruitment Program Self-Assessment helps you uncover hidden inefficiencies and identify opportunities to improve speed, quality, and alignment across your hiring process.
