Message: <blockquote data-quote="Chris Brown" data-source="post: 212592" data-attributes="member: 35674">Some firms receive close to 5,000 applications each recruitment cycle. They have to draw the line somewhere to get the numbers down and make TC offers. It’s impossible for a firm to do this without ‘discriminating’ against someone. I think firms try to mitigate this with contextual recruitment and offering reasonable adjustments to candidates at each stage. 🙂 Firms generally interview the top 5-10% of the applicant pool each cycle. People who make it to interview have demonstrated potential, but it is up to the partners who assess them whether to offer a VS or TC. That assessment isn’t just based on vibes, but objective criteria. To some extent, there is subjectivity, but that does not amount to people being entirely overlooked. 🤷🏾‍♂️ The only way a firm could offer all interviewees a TC is by alienating and excluding thousands of candidates at the first stage, inviting the top 1% to interview (50/5,000). The other 4,950 candidates who got rejected could then all argue they were discriminated against or overlooked due to unfair processes. Ultimately, it’s a very difficult and competitive process for everyone. 🥲</blockquote>
