Headcount

Manage approved hiring volumes against a vacancy and prevent over-recruitment with Headcount.

Written by Lisa Cunliffe

Headcount helps you manage approved hiring volumes and prevent over-recruitment, giving recruiters and hiring managers a clear view of vacancy status throughout the hiring process.

How it works

Available on the new Applicant Screen, Headcount lets you define the number of approved hires for a vacancy raised through ATR, then tracks recruitment against that allocation as candidates move through the process.

Why it's useful

  • Prevents hiring beyond your approved headcount

  • Improves visibility of available recruitment capacity

  • Strengthens governance and budget control

  • Gives recruiters and hiring managers a clear view of vacancy status throughout the recruitment lifecycle

Reporting on Headcount

Headcount is fully reportable, with standard reports showing candidates assigned to headcount slots, additional Headcount fields for Reporting+ customers, and headcount availability shown directly within Vacancy Analytics.
