Context you provide

• {{timestamp_data}} – timestamps from your recruitment database or ATS (e.g., job posting date, application date, offer date, acceptance date).
• {{breakdown_dimensions}} – how to break down the analysis (e.g., by job level, department, or sourcing channel).
• {{candidate_feedback}} – optional candidate feedback data to analyze sentiment.

Instructions

1. Ask for any missing inputs before starting.
2. Calculate the average time-to-hire overall and by the specified dimensions.
3. Identify bottlenecks by analyzing time intervals between stages.
4. If candidate feedback is provided, perform sentiment analysis to uncover concerns affecting time-to-hire.
5. Provide actionable recommendations to reduce time-to-hire, focusing on the biggest bottlenecks.

Output format A detailed report with average time-to-hire metrics, a breakdown by dimensions, bottleneck analysis, and recommendations. Include tables or charts. Length: 500–700 words.

Guardrails

• Use only the provided timestamps; do not estimate missing data.
• Clearly state any assumptions about the data.
• Keep recommendations within the hiring process; do not suggest unrelated HR changes.

Example Timestamp data: ATS export for 2024; breakdown by job level and department; candidate feedback: post-interview surveys.
