Maybe I'm an old fart, but I've never had a job take over 14 days to get. Stringing people along for 3 months is absolute insanity. This is what happens when people get turned into numbers instead of actual beings with needs and emotions.

You’re not even hearing back from the recruiter for 14 days if the job posting just went up. I mean it takes 1-2 weeks from the day you got told that you’re getting an offer to the day when you sign it.

Same, in the past it was much faster.

IMO the reason it takes longer now is because multiple people are getting interviewed simultaneously.

Considering job postings are getting 10x more resumes than before, I'm not surprised companies are hedging their bets and interviewing way more people for the same position.

3 months? Try 6. 7-9 rounds of interviews over a 6 month period. It's insane.

People need to stop subjecting themselves to that. Eventually companies would get the message.

Tell that to the people sending out hundreds of applications before eventually getting hired.

Starvation's a very powerful motivator for most people.

This only works in economies where there are far more well paying jobs then there are people that want to fill them.
