Probably I wouldn't want to hire someone who does 10 interviews per month.
- ryandrake 10y agoGo on...? Not sure I'm making the connection. I've done that many in a week during tough times.
- krzrak 10y agoI assumed someone habitually goes to 10 interviews a month, even if they have a job. I want an employee who works, not is constantly looking for some new gig. Anyway, speaking from my experience in software development, most people I hired (and me, my friends) interviewed with 1-3 companies before choosing a new job. Once or twice I met people who bragged about "having 17 offers on the table, so you need to hurry with yours" - they weren't the people I would like to work with.
- sobani 10y agoHow many applicants do you interview per position? I assume it's more than 3. Why wouldn't it be fair for a job seeker to consider just as many possibilities as you do?
- ryandrake 10y agoNot sure if any of that makes sense. If a candidates wants a job they need to interview. Not all interviews result in offers. My experience has been it's about 10% or so, depending on how good/bad the market is. So to get 1-3 offers you probably need to interview at 10-30 companies. What are you expecting?
- krzrak 10y agoI don't know, it just is like this. I don't make here some general theory, just present my experience.
