Clicks: The number of views a job posting gets, or the number of times someone clicks on your job posting.
Impressions: The number of people a particular job ad reaches.

CPC: When using a “cost-per-click” advertising model, money is spent after every time someone clicks on a job advertisement.
CPA: When using a “cost-per-applicant” advertising model, money is spent after every time someone applies for a job.
CPH: The “cost-per-hire” is the total amount of money spent on hiring one employee. This is calculated by the total spend of a specific job divided by the total number of hires.
