Deb Houston, host of the You Hired Me at Hello podcast, discusses the ideal length of a hiring process and stresses the importance of finding a balance between being efficient and conducting a thorough assessment. Moving too fast or skipping interview stages can lead to making mistakes, while taking too long can result in losing top talent.

A poll was conducted on LinkedIn to find out the ideal length of the hiring process from the perspective of recruiters, candidates, and hiring managers. The interesting thing about the results is that they depend on the individual's definition of when the hiring process begins, as the start of a hiring process is different for hiring managers and candidates. It is important to note that all of the options can be the right answer, depending on the angle from which it is seen.

In this episode, Deb breaks down the poll results and then shares two seperate perspectives on how long the hiring process should be be; as the candidate and as the hiring manager.
