What is the most frustrating part of the hiring process for you? For me, it's how long the entire process can take from start to finish. I wish we could expedite the process sometimes :)

I think the biggest challenge for me is meeting some really great candidates but ultimately having to turn them down for one reason or another. A lot of times I wish I could hire multiple people because they're all very likeable and seem like good fits for the roles, even though I know that's not possible.

What's the biggest reason for you to turn down someone?

Same. I know that our standard is 4+ interviews, but at a certain point, it feels gratuitous. Especially when there's a candidate that everyone can see is perfect for the role.

i agree- 4 + can seem very drawn out

Been in consumer insights all my work life (10 years) and considering pivoting to product or product marketing manager roles. Yet I have had some interesting convos for people manager roles in insights recently and wondering if I should maybe refocus my efforts there. I’m looking for a broader mandate than just my immediate pipeline. I have been enjoying insights but grow frustrated by the lack of decision-making power. I rather would want to take a path with high long term career potential.
