🔔REALITY CHECK🔔 Do you actually have time to hire on your own?
❌The Numbers Don't Lie❌

Bard, (now called Gemini) suggests it takes on average:

🎯10 hours of sourcing & screening to generate a good candidate
🎯A further 2 - 3 hours on in-depth screening
🎯Then 3 - 4 hours on interviewing
🎯And finally 2 - 4 hours closing a process

This averages between 17 - 23 hours, and that does not account for the fact multiple candidates are needed as the ratio is never 1 to 1 (the average being 4 - 6 candidates to successfully make a hire)

If your businesses is wanting / expecting / needing to hire just 1 highly skilled candidate (such as Software Engineer, Data Engineer, Head of Product etc.) then you must be able to afford someone in your business, who has sufficient skills and experience in active sourcing recruitment, to work fulltime for over 2 weeks if you expect a positive result.

The reality is it costs your business more by not using expert help when hiring, than expecting your HR to be able to still complete their normal fulltime job function AND achieve in the hiring results you want.
