Hey, apologies that it has taken us so long to get back to you on this.
From your answer to Khorton, it sounds like your 2.4% figure excludes the Core job you didn’t hire for (which seems to have gotten more applicants than the average core job). I don’t understand that decision, and think it makes it harder to answer the question of whether EA jobs are hard to get.
Thanks for pointing this out! You've shed light on an important point.The 2.4% figure can be thought of as "the probability of being hired, conditional on clearing a hiring bar" and the 1.85% figure is the "probability of being hired at all"; on reflection I agree that the latter would be more useful in this case. I've updated the post to reflect this.
Can you provide CEA’s offer rate, for the PM role and for core jobs overall?
For the PM role there was only one offer made (to the one hire), so a rate of 1/52=1.9%.
For core jobs overall, on average there was just one offer made for each[1]. The average number of applications was 53.7, so the average offer rate for core roles is 1/53.7=1.9%.
Of the 7 Core roles, one role made two offers, and one other role made zero offers, so this averages out at one offer per role.
Hey, thanks for your comment.
Images should be fixed now, thanks for pointing this out.
