Each month, Hellohire moves thousands of caregivers through the hiring funnel. And each month, we share a peek into their experience to help you see where you excel in your hiring process and where you have opportunity to improve.
Since Hellohire automates some of the more tedious parts of the hiring process for recruiters and allows applicants to self-schedule interviews, we also get a clearer picture of what applicants actually want and how to meet their changing needs.
