⏳ The Hidden Costs of Slow Hiring (And How AI Speeds It Up)

**You might think slow hiring means careful hiring. More steps = better choices, right?** Not exactly. In reality, slow hiring costs you: - Your best candidates - Your team's morale - Your business goals - And eventually, your brand reputation When great candidates get stuck in endless interview rounds, they move on. When roles stay open too long, your team burns out. When hiring drags, your company drags. --- ## 📉 Here's What It Actually Costs You: According to SHRM, every open role costs a company **$4,129 per month** on average. Now multiply that across every vacancy. --- ## 🚨 The Best Candidates Move Fast Top talent is decisive. They want clarity, not confusion. They want momentum, not mystery. If your hiring process takes 4-8 weeks (or longer), you're not "being thorough"—you're bleeding candidates. Speed isn't about being reckless. Speed is about **respecting time—yours and theirs.** --- ## ⚡ How Vetta Cuts Time-to-Hire Without Cutting Quality At Vetta, we built the entire platform around **speed + fit**: - Employers post the *problem* they're hiring to solve - AI matches candidates who've solved similar problems - Blinded profiles prevent bias and save screening time - Built-in messaging + scheduling moves interviews forward instantly - Analytics track match quality and time-to-offer in real time When you remove friction, you don't just move faster—you move **smarter.** --- ## 🧠 Final Thought: Hiring Isn't a Waiting Game The longer you wait, the worse your options get. The longer you stall, the harder the role is to fill. And the longer your process drags, the more you signal uncertainty—to your candidates and your own team. If you're ready to stop losing time (and talent), it's time to rethink how you hire. > Ready to speed up your hiring without sacrificing quality? > See how Vetta unshitifies hiring →
