Where Getro adds value across the talent acquisition funnel
The further down the funnel we get, the more tangible the value becomes.
Below you’ll find calculators where you can plug in your metrics to get an estimate of the value Getro brings to your organization. Each component is based on industry data to help you get an accurate picture of job board ROI.
Measure successful hires with GetroConnect
Starting at the bottom of the funnel with Hires, our ability to attribute value is most definite. GetroConnect allows you to track hires made through your whole network, receiving notifications when contacts are hired for any role.
Value Per Hire
According to a survey conducted by SHRM, the average cost per hire for organizations in the United States is about $4,700. Obviously for senior and technical roles, this number is significantly higher and varies from industry to industry.
Where to Find Data on Hires
If you’re a GetroConnect customer, you can find data on how many hires you’ve helped your network make by navigating to the Hires tab on the top of your Getro screen and looking for Team assisted hires.

Drive Applicants with a Job Board
If you’re at a VC fund or a professional organization, your job board is a particularly important avenue for delivering ROI to your portfolio companies. A job board aggregates all of your open roles in one place, and allows your firm’s reputation and marketing efforts to get more eyes on open roles and bolster your talent pipeline as you connect job seekers with founders.
Value Per Applicant
Most companies receive approximately 118 candidates for each hire they make. Every application that your job board brings in can get a company on your job board closer to making a key hire.
Where to Find Data on Applicants
Getro’s Home View can tell you how many job seekers have likely submitted applications from your job board. Any time a job seeker views a job description on Getro and clicks the "Apply" button, they are counted as “Likely Applied.” You can use this metric in the calculator above to understand the value of the applications you’ve driven.
