Hiring Pipeline

Noun · Hacker Culture

Definitions

  1. The sequence of stages candidates move through during recruiting, such as sourcing, screening, interviews, debriefs, and offers. Teams treat it like an operational funnel because delays or poor conversion at any stage affect hiring outcomes.

    In plain English: The set of steps candidates go through during recruiting.

    Example: "The hiring pipeline looked healthy at the top, but onsite-to-offer conversion was weak."
