There is also another side of this issue that we all seem to be missing and that is the reputation of the employer. I find more and more candidates simply refusing to entertain the process when the reputation of employer is one of many interviews, lengthy processes and lack of timely feedback. With the advent of public forums (ie: Glassdoor, which is now a Facebook application) within social media, this is becoming a more prevalent problem. In the short term, it’s a reputation issue and an expense issue. Forbes Magazine recently quantified this at a median point of $40,000 per incident. Businessweek significantly higher. In the long run, this sort of protocol can also cost a company top talent. Statistically the companies (employers) who can make clean, quick, decisive decisions are the ones moving forward, retaining solid reputations, keeping losses at bay and attracting and retaining top talent.

Wow, after seeing how long the interview process takes after you add it all up, I feel bad for all the times I did not accept a position as an asp.net developer! I was a choosy worker and put a lot of recruiters through the ringer. Hopefully this makes up for it:

Thanks Ryan. Really good. I’d like to see objective evidence that shows a consistent need/benefit for more than two interview rounds of 3, 45-60 min interviews or 2-3 hours max each round. If you can’t figure out in that time if someone is competent and won’t drive you crazy in the long run, there’s something wrong with your process/interview team…

Cheers,

Great article! It’s true, endless rounds of interviewing can really take a toll on your bottom line. Plus with these interview processes taking so long, you just might miss out on the great talent you’ve been looking for when another, faster offer comes around. That’s why utilizing one-way video interviews, where employers pose written questions candidates answer on video, as a first round interview is a good idea. This way if the candidate is all wrong for the position, you don’t have waste any valuable time. This allows you to focus on only the most qualified and fitting candidates for your open positions.
