In this Trending Topics episode, Sam and Lex discuss the complexities surrounding 'Quality of Hire' in recruitment — complexities that have often led even ardent fans of the metric to say it's nearly impossible to measure. But what if it didn't actually have to be that difficult? What if while, yes, Quality of Hire is subjective, it's also pretty simple? 

This conversation highlights Uber's framework for measuring Quality of Hire — emphasizing the importance of developing success profiles, redesigning the hiring process, and validating hires through post-hire surveys. For those fans of Quality of Hire who are looking for a way to measure it, this is a good place to start.
