Abandon Rate

The abandon rate in human resources refers to the percentage of job seekers who start the application process but do not complete it. This can occur at various stages of the recruitment process, such as filling out an online application form or during an assessment test. It is an important metric for HR departments as it can indicate potential issues in the application process that may deter candidates. Understanding and addressing high abandon rates can help improve the candidate experience and increase the pool of successfully completed applications.
