The Hiring Speed Dilemma: Too Fast Loses Quality, Too Slow Loses Talent
Hiring strong employees in the fashion, beauty, and consumer lifestyle industries is a delicate balance—move too slowly, and top talent slips through your fingers; move too quickly, and you risk making the wrong hire. Missed opportunities, lost momentum, and a talent pool that’s shrinking by the minute.
At PRTNR Recruiting, we see it time and time again: companies that are too slow lose their best candidates to competitors, while those that rush the process end up with costly hiring mistakes. The key is finding the right hiring speed—one that allows you to move fast enough to secure great talent without compromising on quality.
Want to refine your hiring process and avoid losing top candidates? Read on to learn how to strike the perfect balance.
Team PRTNR: What We’re Focusing on in Q3
In Q3, we’d love to expand our network to brands in the fashion, health, and beauty spaces founded by LGBTQ+ people. Understanding the brand's values, missions, and any specific initiatives related to diversity and inclusion is important not only to us but also to top-tier candidates in the field. We aim to create an environment where everyone can thrive and contribute to our collective success.
Cheers to a happy and healthy Q3!
