There is a math formula: the better the Candidate, the least time they wait for a Client to decide.
Conversely, the longer they wait for a decision, the least qualified they are. These are candidates that do not have a line of Recruiters knocking at their doors to hire them.
Just as there is competition to land the best jobs, there is competition for the best candidates.
Adapting a quote from Groucho Marx, ‘I don’t want to hire any candidate that will accept waiting months for me to hire as a member of my team’. (“I don’t want to belong to any club that will accept people like me as a member”).
