If you’re applying for a job today, one thing is essential: patience. First interview. Second round. Third meeting. Case study. Feedback. Silence. And maybe—just maybe—a decision. Here’s the hard truth: If someone is the right fit, you know it right away. Not after the third conversation. Not after endless interviews or casual coffee chats with the team. But instantly—in the first meeting, with the first impression.

Back in the day, you had 2–3 candidates and just knew who it was. Today, we search so long for the “perfect match” that we overlook the best one—and then wonder why we’re re-posting the same job two months later.

Less circus. More clarity. You don’t recognize talent on the third look. You feel it from the start.
