See what's actually driving placements at staffing firms - and where budget is being wasted.

Based on data from 88,000+ placements and survey responses from 1,500 job seekers, this report shows which sourcing channels perform, which don't, and where leading firms can reallocate spend for better ROI. 

You'll learn: 

- Which sourcing channels drive placements - not just recruiter activity
- Where budget is being wasted
- How top teams can use referrals and ATS/CRM rediscovery to increase recruiter output
- Where AI is helping - and where it’s still unproven
