ROI Estimator

Generation values employer partners across the globe. We’ve created this tool to help you understand the ROI of a partnership with Generation

Hiring new employees is costly. Many managers believe they understand the costs associated with hiring, but few have full visibility into each cost category.

Recruiting as well as on-boarding and training contribute to nearly 40% of the total cost-per-hire. Turnover can lead to loss of productivity and can contribute to more than 50% of total cost-per-hire. Generation can calculate these costs for you and provide a solution to make your hiring process more efficient.

Generation provides employers with a high-performing talent pipeline of entry-level employees that are retained longer, enabling cost-per-hire savings. We consider these savings as the Return on Investment (ROI) for Generation’s program.

The tool below provides a high-level estimate of potential ROI that could be realized through a partnership with Generation.
