Standard Reporting
Use Jobvite standard reporting templates to track information core to the recruiting process, such as sourcing activity, candidate activity, job activity, and compliance information.
Example questions answered using standard reports:
1. How many candidates do I have in each step of the workflow?
Candidate Activity Report
2. How can I get a list of all referral candidates that have accepted offers?
Employee Referrals Report
Standard Reports - Scheduling
Scheduling Reports in 5 easy steps:1. Generate a report.2. Select “Schedule Report”3. Set a title and select recipients
(Trick: Hiring Managers can be selected so to be kept in the loop on requisition & candidate activity!)
4. Add a standard message to accompany your report
5. Select “Schedule Report” and you’re done
What are the benefits?Save time, communicate quickly, and monitor recruiting
activity consistently.
Standard Reports – Exporting Data
All Jobvite standard reports can be exported to Excel so to be easily manipulated or distributed.
To export data, select the “Export to Excel” button in the upper left corner once a report is
generated.
Custom Reports
Candidate Fields:Contact information, activity logs, sources, and workflow steps associated with ONE applicant, not a group of applicants.
Requisition Fields:Description details, workflow counts, and internal persons associated with ONE requisition.
Trick: When building reports first think of what you want your “row” value to be. Start there when selecting your columns. In most cases, they’ll be candidate names or
titles of requisitions.
How well do you know your fields?
Is this field name associated with a candidate or requisition field?...

Custom Reports – Filter/Group?
When should I filter?Filters help users to cut down the number of rows shown on a report.
Most common filters: Candidate & Requisition Status, Start Date, Location, Created On Date
When should I group?Grouping should be used to automatically aggregate column information by row.
Most common grouping fields: Requisition Title, Location, Hiring Manager Name, Source, Source Type
Tips & Tricks
1. Identify metrics typically asked of you from executives and schedule reports to be delivered to them on a regular basis so to keep them informed.
2. Customize pre-designed templates by copying their column content into a custom report and adding additional columns and filters.
3. Know your fields! Building custom reports will be easier if you know what each of them means specific to your company.
4. For difficult calculations, export data to Excel to easily add advanced calculations.
5. Leverage dashboards to quickly get a snapshot of where your best applicants are coming from. This will tell you where to focus your effort when sourcing for new candidates.
