Average Cost Per Hire

amyxinc

I am looking for current average Cost Per Hire information.  Does any one have a good source?  I have checked with SHRM and the data I found is from 2005.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

Rather than seeking generic data, you might want to go at it in a  more company or job-specific way. Take a look at your organization and consider all costs associated with hiring for either all jobs, or a specific position. Look at (I pasted this from Excel, so hopefully it turns out):

Total Salary Cost for Recruiting Staff

Benefit Costs as Percent of Salary (e.g., 30%)

Travel Expenses (Recruiting Staff)

Entertainment Expenses
