These recommendations are based on Empiric’s embedded hiring model. Each dedicated recruiter is assumed to source around 8 new top-of-funnel candidates per week, typically producing 4–5 qualified CVs. Combined with our benchmark conversion ratios of 1.5 CVs per interview, 7 first interviews per offer and 80% offer acceptance, this determines the recruiter capacity required to achieve your hiring target. Weekly interview and candidate figures are rounded to the nearest whole number for readability.

Model assumptions can be tailored to reflect your organisation’s historical hiring data.
