Follows issues to resolution and makes handoffs easier.
Each role is weighted based on how it slows teams down.
The calculator shows the total cost of unfilled roles to date.
Select a role, input how long it’s been unfilled, and see the daily and total cost of that gap.
When a critical tech hire stays unfilled, the delays ripple.
Use our cost of delayed hiring calculator to estimate the actual cost of waiting, based on role type, salary benchmarks, and delivery slowdown impact.
Contract recruiting can close that gap faster than full-time hiring. STACK IT delivers embedded talent without the wait.
One unfilled role can set delivery back weeks. Now you can measure how much that costs.
That depends on the role. But once teams start shifting work around or slipping on delivery, it’s already late. This calculator shows what that delay costs in real terms.
The calculator is built around tech roles we place most often: engineering, product, systems, analytics. It’s not designed for general admin or non-specialist roles.
That’s exactly when this is useful. Most hiring delays hit hardest before interviews even begin. This tool helps you make the case for support before more time slips.
They reflect how much delivery slows when a specific role is unfilled, based on Agile team research, DORA metrics, and our own placement outcomes.
Yes. That’s what it’s built for. The output can support budget requests, timeline adjustments, or shifting to a contract model to close the gap faster.
We’ll walk you through what fast, high-fit hiring can look like.
That’s our STACK.
