Why “Perfect Candidates” Are Costing Firms Great Hires

One of the most common hiring mistakes I see nationwide: waiting for the “perfect” candidate.

The reality?
Top attorneys are off the market in days, not months.

Firms that move decisively — even if a candidate checks 80–90% of the boxes — consistently outperform those waiting for perfection.

The trend is clear:
• Faster interview processes
• Fewer decision-makers
• Stronger close strategies

Hiring is no longer about eliminating risk — it’s about managing opportunity.
