Talent Acquisition is the one function that makes all other roles in a company possible. Yet it is the single most inefficient function in every company. And the most important. And the most underfunded.

Understanding your HCROI allows HR and TA leaders to drive meaningful change and optimization in their human capital acquisition and retention approaches.
