Background of Release

As of 2026, human capital disclosure in annual securities reports has become established for over 2,100 listed companies, and compliance with the international standard ISO 30414 is extending to mid-sized and unlisted companies.

However, many companies' recruitment KPIs remain limited to "offer acceptance rates and fulfillment numbers," posing a serious challenge due to the disconnect with post-hire performance and retention data.

The cause lies in the conventional mindset that has viewed recruitment solely as "optimization of labor costs."

The IT/SaaS industry faces a retention rate of 78% within the first year, which is among the lowest in the industry, and losses due to recruitment mismatches significantly damage a company's human capital value.

In response to this situation, Willnext, based on field knowledge gained through HR communities, has confirmed the need for a systematic guide from redesigning recruitment KPIs to practically utilizing performance data.

This material summarizes the design of new recruitment KPIs centered on Quality of Hire (post-hire performance) and practical methods for AI prediction and people analytics.

Features of This Material

- Includes a "Recruitment KPI Diagnostic Checklist"

- Illustrates an integrated KPI system from ATTRACT → SELECT → HIRE → THRIVE

- Quantifies the specific effects of AI utilization—+35% accuracy in predicting performance scores, 60% reduction in interview evaluation time, +28% matching accuracy through JD optimization

- Features success stories from manufacturing and IT/SaaS companies—includes quantitative results for retention rates, recruitment accuracy, and cost reduction by industry
