Last week I was sitting in a board meeting for my local SHRM Chapter (NASHRM). I’ve been on the board for about five years now in various roles, and it’s a great way to get connected and serve others within the profession. But volunteering in that capacity is not what we’re discussing today. There was a point in the conversation where we were talking about our upcoming Mentor University program, and someone asked what the minimum threshold should be for mentors in the program.

There is no shortage of metrics driving Quality of Hire today, which should be a good thing, but, like any other process, there are inefficiencies that waste time and resources. And, as data analytics becomes more advanced and prevalent in HR, Quality of Hire is increasingly more recognized as an all-encompassing metric rather than simply a recruiting metric or something that can be calculated by a single formula.
