The module offers two reading screens: one for the day in progress, the other to step back over a period.

## The dashboard

This is the opening screen of the module, **Team → Recruitment**. It answers a single question: what do I have to handle today?

The **To handle today** block lists three things, each with its action button:

- **Applications to sort**, with the number that arrived today, and the **Open the pipeline** button.
- **Interviews to confirm**, and the **Confirm the slots** button.
- **Candidates with no reply**, waiting for more than a certain number of days, and the **Reply in one click** button.

Below that, your indicators:

- **Open jobs**
- **Total applications**, with the new ones this week
- **Upcoming interviews**
- **Average time to hire**, from application to contract
- **Hired this month**
- **Recruitment funnel**: how many candidates at each stage
- **Applications per week**
- **Recent applications** and **Candidates awaiting your decision**, with the number of days waited

## The analytics

The **Analytics** screen steps back, over the period of your choice:

- **Applications** received
- **Hires**
- **Avg. time to fill**
- **Jobs with activity**

Then an **Applications per job** table, row by row: the job, its applications, its hires, its time to fill and its publication date.

It is this table that tells you which adverts are working and which are asleep. A job published three weeks ago with two applications does not deserve the same treatment as one that brings in fifteen: rewrite the first, or move the advertising budget.

If the screen shows "No analytics data for this period", widen the period.

## Where your candidates come from

To complete the picture, the **Candidates** list is filtered by **Source**: Careers page, QR code, Referral, Spontaneous, Social media, Talent pool, Job board or Other. This is where you see whether your poster in the window really brings in applications.
