Key metrics informing Kontorva’s platform

For over 5+ years in the technical hiring industry, Kontorva has meticulously captured, analyzed, and understood key hiring metrics that play a pivotal role in refining our developer vetting and assessment platform. Our evidence-based approach ensures that our clients receive reliable, valid, and relevant screening tests, leading to consistent, successful hiring outcomes.

Below is a breakdown of the metrics and how they shape Kontorva’s science-driven solutions:

Time to hire

A crucial metric that helps identify inefficiencies within the recruiting process. By understanding the speed of the hiring funnel, we fine-tune our approach to ensure a streamlined process, minimizing bottlenecks.

Revenue per employee

This metric highlights employee productivity and management effectiveness in translating workforce efforts into profit. Kontorva emphasizes vetting developer readiness with precise screening to ensure every new hire contributes maximum value from day one.

Human capital risk

Human capital risk encompasses factors such as under-skilling, turnover, misconduct, and attrition, all of which can hinder growth and stability. Kontorva’s rigorous vetting process is built to reduce these risks by accurately identifying skilled developers and avoiding underperforming hires.

Absenteeism

Absenteeism has a significant impact on productivity, and it is often indicative of issues such as poor employee engagement. Kontorva considers this metric as a signal for underlying factors in candidate quality, focusing not only on technical expertise but also on motivation, problem-solving capabilities, and adaptability to the company culture.

Offer acceptance rate

A low offer acceptance rate can be indicative of issues in either the offer stage or the recruiting process itself. Kontorva’s assessments aim to ensure a positive candidate experience, improving communication and alignment between companies and candidates.

Training efficiency

Effective onboarding and training are key to a developer’s success within an organization. Kontorva’s assessments are designed to evaluate not only current skill levels but also potential for future growth, with insights into training requirements, allowing companies to adapt and improve their training programs.

Turnover rate

Turnover rates are indicative of both staff satisfaction and recruiting strategy effectiveness. By hiring the right talent and reducing involuntary churn, we help companies maintain a low turnover rate, leading to improved stability and team continuity.

External parameters

External factors, such as economic trends and changing job legislation, affect hiring and workforce stability. Our approach ensures that our clients can navigate changing landscapes confidently while continuing to hire the right developers.
