Which report should I use?

Find the right report right away! Workable's pre-build reports provide flexibility and detail, allowing you to analyze, monitor, and improve your recruitment procedures. Deciding which report to use depends on the type of data or metric you want to surface.

Use the table below, along with your browser's Find feature (CMD + F on Mac | CTRL + F on Windows), to search for the type of data or metrics you'd like to surface. Then, use the corresponding report in Workable or, when needed, export the report to CSV to manipulate/filter externally. For example, you may need to export the Activity report to filter results based on specific actions or recruiters.

💡If you want to view a report or metric that is not part of the pre-built reports, explore the custom reporting options.
