How this is calculated
Current cost = Open roles x shortlisted candidates (8 per role at 15%) x interview stages (3) x interviewers per stage (2) x time per interview (45 min) x hourly rate ($75/hr)
Optimised cost = Same formula, but with 1 fewer interview stage and 30% fewer candidates reaching interviews (6 per role instead of 8)
Savings = Difference between current and optimised totals
These estimates assume pre-screening assessments are used to filter candidates before interviews. Actual results depend on implementation.
