Company insights
Company insights give you a high-level view across all your jobs. You can find them by clicking Insights in the sidebar.
Filters and date picker
You can filter company insights by Location and Department to focus on a specific part of your organisation. Use the date picker to set the time frame — choose from preset options (Last 7 days, Last 30 days, Last 60 days, This quarter, Previous quarter, Year to date, All dates) or pick any custom start and end date.
Metrics overview

A list of all active jobs during the selected time frame.

A bar graph showing page views over time. Includes days with no activity.
Sources
For both Views and Applications, click Sources to see individual sources and the number of visitors and/or applicants that came through each one.
What does (direct) mean as a source?
This is traffic that can't be specified or recognised by Google Analytics — for example, visitors who went directly to your page, clicked a link in an email, used a bookmark, or came via WhatsApp. If tracking cookies are disabled on your career page or job posts, all candidates will show as (Direct).
Why do I see an unknown channel in my sources? This can happen when a visitor also visited another page in the same browser session. Google Analytics recognises the original source for that visitor.
Can I connect Google Analytics to Homerun? Yes, this article explains how.
Sharing your insights report
You can share your Company insights report with anyone — even people outside Homerun. When shared, the report shows a cover with pills displaying the date range, department, and location filters applied. The share link has an expiry date, after which access is automatically revoked.
Job insights
Job insights give you a more detailed view of the hiring process for a specific job. To access them, go to the job, click the three dots in the top right, and select Job insights.
Candidates currently in the hiring process
A snapshot of how many candidates are currently active in each stage of your hiring process. Useful for checking the status of an ongoing search and identifying stages that need attention.
Hiring pipeline & conversion
A view of how candidates have progressed through all stages. You can switch between two views:
Totals: shows the absolute number of candidates that moved to the next stage vs those that were disqualified or not moved.
Conversion: shows the percentage of candidates that progressed at each stage.
Time in stage
Shows the average number of days candidates spent in each stage before being moved along or disqualified. Use this to spot bottlenecks and identify where candidates are getting stuck — both to improve your team's efficiency and to give candidates a better experience.
Apply form answers
For each multiple choice question in your application form, a pie chart shows how candidates answered. This makes it easy to compare answers at a glance — for example, where candidates found the job, or their preferred way of working.
Disqualifications
Shows where and how candidates were disqualified throughout the process. Switch between two views:
Stages: shows the number of candidates disqualified at each stage, split by manually disqualified, automatically disqualified, and not disqualified.
Reasons: shows a breakdown by disqualification reason.
Note: the data on the Insights page is a combination of Homerun data and Google Analytics data. It can take up to 24 hours for the latest changes to appear.
Note: if you have disabled Analytics cookies on the Privacy page in your Homerun account, no analytics cookies will be placed and Insights won't show data related to page views and sources.
