I thought I would share this article I read on statistics in recruitment.  Very interesting.  The two points that stick out the most to me are:

1. It takes an average of 27 days to make a new hire – and this is an all time high.
2. The best candidates are off the market within 10 days.

What are thoughts?  Is your company seeing similar trends?  Does the market need a wake up call in moving faster in the recruitment process?
