Why do processes for average jobs take months at a time?
Folks, quick rant here. Why has it become the norm for employers (specifically non sought-after roles) to have job processes that are several weeks at a minimum? I can understand/reason with a month plus long process for a B5 or something else that is worth having. But for the fund of funds, LMM, stepping-stone type firms, why do they need to have a screener, then a resume walkthrough/behaviorals, a first case, another interview with seniors, a second case, then finally a superday to round things off? 7 fucking weeks for a junior seat is insane. Not sure where they get the nerve. Entrepreneurship might be the way.
I have no idea but I'm curious as well. Seems like intentional bureaucracy
Far be it from me to side with HR in any instance (to be clear, I'm not really), but do you see no irony in how you're characterizing these roles vs. your gripes about process?
Can you understand that these firms probably aren't interested in hiring people that view them as "non sought-after" or "not worth having" or "stepping-stone firms"? Extrapolating that in many instances these are leaner firms means that hiring decisions are more critical and it is expensive and disruptive to deal with turnover/re-hiring, etc.
I actually don't disagree with your general sentiment, just your dogshit attitude.
I remember while recruiting FT i got through 4 rounds at a fund of funds while having NO clue what a fund of funds was. Still don’t
