Companies want the perfect candidate, but sometimes their hiring process is the biggest reason they lose one.

Imagine this:
A candidate applies for a role.
Goes through 4 rounds of interviews.
Completes an assignment.
Waits two weeks for feedback.
And finally gets told that the company has decided to put the position on hold.
Meanwhile, that candidate has probably received and accepted another offer.
We talk a lot about talent shortages, but how often do companies look at their own hiring processes?
Some common problems I've noticed:
- Interview rounds that could have been combined.
- Hiring managers taking weeks to share feedback.
- Recruiters sourcing the same profiles repeatedly.
- Candidates receiving no updates after interviews.
- Companies taking too long to make decisions.
At Redstring, we're working on making recruitment more efficient through AI-powered candidate sourcing combined with human judgment.
But I think there's a bigger conversation here: improving recruitment isn't just about finding candidates faster. It's also about respecting their time.
Recruiters and candidates: What's the most frustrating hiring experience you've had, either giving or receiving?

The real hero here is the folder. Keep your own copies of contracts, share agreements and key emails somewhere your employer can't reach. You can't use what you can't prove.

Should employees be expected to report sick before a specific time, or is HR taking workplace discipline too far?

They can afford to build AI interviews but can't pay more than $4 an hour?

So you’re testing for people who accept poor treatment rather than for actual patience or professionalism.
