What is Employee Engagement?

Employee engagement is the level of emotional commitment and discretionary effort a worker puts into their job and organization.

Why it matters in hiring

Employee Engagement comes up whenever teams compare candidates, set policy or report on people data. Getting the definition right keeps decisions consistent, which is the same reason springhire scores every applicant against the same criteria rather than on impression.
