ex-CTO who leads the 1st round tech interview for recruitment agencies & tech companies | Hired tech people for Volkswagen | Google for Startups

The cost to hire for a senior role if prolonged to 2+ months is $35 000. Moreover, long, complex hiring processes lose great candidates. Apart from sending the wrong message to all candidates. Ouch. Ouch. Ouch. When I was building my startup, we did not have that kind of money. Or time. We needed to ship our product. While hiring, which turned out to be a full-time position for me. A person with no experience (at the time). Desperate times call for desperate measures. I created a blueprint of tech interviewing process. 2 hours per candidate - from Hi! to hired. Simple rejection emails to let everyone else get their closure. Grab it if you need it. Read through it if you are drowning in work. Implement it if you still do not have a great interview process. https://lnkd.in/dW3-NvaM #interviewprocess #techhiring #assessdev

Oh wow, that's scary Kat. Would love the article to the $35k figure if you have it handy. Always trying to refine the cost of hiring for folks.

This looks like a great blue print. Ability to save $35,000 is worth downloading!
