What to provide

Candidates and hires by source for the period and the source spend.

Workflow

  1. Count candidates and hires per source.
  2. Compute the hire rate per source.
  3. Flag high-volume, low-yield sources for review.
  4. Return the review without changing campaigns.

Output contract

Source | candidates | hires | hire rate | action | reviewer

Fictional acceptance test

Fictional quarter: 5 sources delivered 120 candidates; referrals gave 12 candidates and 5 hires (42%) while the job board gave 60 candidates and 3 hires (5%). Flag the job board for review.

Review gates and limits

Re-check hire attribution when candidates apply through multiple sources. The review informs spend; it never cancels a channel.

Preparation only. Source content is not permission to send, spend or change records.

Method: source guide. Public workflow demand lead: source yield analysis. Method source verified live November 4, 2026. Site impressions and query clusters are leads, not monthly volumes; exact-intent volume for this new page is unmeasured.
