# Hiring Executive Dashboard

> A single page with one idea worth stealing: tell the reader how to read the numbers before they read them.

**HR & hiring · Light · Single page**

A single page with one idea worth stealing: tell the reader how to read the numbers before they read them.

## What makes it work

- A cobalt header with a Read this call-out strip that frames the interpretation up front.
- KPI cards stay to one number and one comparison each.
- The layout is simple enough to rebuild in an afternoon.
- Best suited to an audience that sees the page once a month and needs the context restated each time.

## The views

This dashboard is a single scrolling page, shown in full below.

## See it live

[Open the live dashboard](https://demo4.holistics.io/dashboards/v4/112051-hiring-executive-dashboard?_pl=67974a0bf31d22412bd3ffa4) to click through it yourself. No Holistics account needed.

## Theme code

The theme this dashboard actually uses, written out as a reusable `PageTheme`. Paste it into a
`.theme.aml` file under **Development > Library > Themes** to reuse it across your own dashboards,
or inline it as a single dashboard's `theme:` property. Chart colour palettes are set
[separately](/docs/admin/dashboard-themes/color-palettes), so they are not included here.

The theme is paired with custom CSS, which lives beside it rather than inside it. See
[Custom CSS](/docs/admin/dashboard-themes/custom-css) for where it goes.
