The largest survey of its kind

The 8th UK Candidate Attraction Report is supported by data from one of the largest surveys of its kind. Eploy and HR Grapevine surveyed just under 700 recruiters (90% in-house, 10% agency) to determine the candidate sourcing channels and recruitment marketing techniques that deliver the best results. In-house and agency recruiters rate each of their main sourcing channels in terms of the quantity and quality of candidates they typically generate. The complete report charts responses within a ‘Sourcing Channel Quadrant’, enabling recruiters to identify the effectiveness of each channel in each sector/industry and by company size.

The survey also asked respondents to share their biggest sourcing channels, expected hiring levels and how budgets are likely to change in the year ahead.
