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.

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.
