It takes a lot of time, effort and money to recruit someone with merit. Therefore, It becomes important for the HR managers to justify their methods and expenses.”
“The Hiring cost calculator is a tool to understand how much money one should put in to hire specific employees in the organization and therefore create and budget your HR operations in a much more data driven way. Moreover, calculating the actual recruitment cost per hire is a very complex process.

That’s when we wanted to build a tool for everyone - a startup, an SME, or a corporate employer and to help our fellow community of HRs.’, he added.
