It is so important to make the RIGHT hire when you go to market to fill a Product Management vacancy. Product Managers come with different backgrounds, specialisms, strengths and weaknesses, etc.; choosing the right one is not easy. Make the wrong hire and the cost to the company can run into millions of $$$. But it doesn't mean that searching for the right person should take months and months either. I've been tracking some companies who have been looking for 4-5 months and still haven't found the right person! This is way too long especially when you factor in the onboarding and the ramp-up time too! At Producto, we move quickly to help our customers fill niche product roles in less than 30 days. We support customers to help them define their hiring needs and present highly qualified candidates that meet their requirements which minimizes the risk of a wrong hire happening. To date, we've never had to make a replacement hire for any of our customers. Whether it's a CPO or Senior Growth PM role, we have a track record in unearthing the RIGHT product talent our customers need to help their businesses thrive. DM me and let's talk about how we can help you make the RIGHT hire. #hiring #recruitment #productmanagement

In this market in this example, you’ll see a role open for 7 months, filled 9 months, new hire in for 3 to 6 months with limited time to make an impact, and then let go due to “restructuring” 🤦♂️ Just like in most things, timing is everything. If you have a need to hire a PM (or most other roles honestly) to take ownership of an opportunity, then delaying pretty much a year, then you’re often too late. For those PMs job searching, beware these roles open for a prolonged period of time…
Last week I spoke with a Hiring Manager who has a Senior Product Manager role that has been open for the last 7 months and they said that they don't need help filling this role. 7 months! While everyone is entitled to their opinion, if you've had a vacancy open for that long, you definitely need help. Even if they hired someone in month 8, by the time someone has been onboarded and is settled into the business (3+ months), it will be nearly a year since they decided that they needed someone. Maybe I have a different view than most, but most recruitment campaigns should be concluded within 30 days or so otherwise you are doing something wrong. Not having the right person in the business will kill momentum, affect morale, and stretch your existing team members. This is a much greater cost to the business than paying a specialist recruiter to hire the right person quickly. Professionals who know the importance of getting key Product hires in place, quickly, don't mess around trying to hire by themselves for 3, 6 or 9 months, they go to a specialist like Producto to help them hire the best of the best. They spend less time trying to hire and more time growing the business and building phenomenal products with the amazing product talent they've onboarded.

⬇ 🤔 Sometimes I feel like James has snuck into my brain and pulled the thoughts right out. It pains me to see the example below of a 7+ month vacancy in a product management role. 😭 The costs of that 7-month gap are massive and far-reaching. 💲 + The opportunity costs of missed work/slower progress + The strain on the existing teams + The inevitable turnover (and then more gaps, hiring needs + costs) + Reduced confidence in leadership and product management + The peripheral effects of whatever issues have caused that vacancy to remain for so long It doesn't have to be this way. There are so many coverage options these days - this situation is one of the main reasons The Product Consult exists. Even if you aren't quite sure what kind of hire is needed, we provide coverage AND help figure that out. Then when you hire, you hire the RIGHT person, with the specific product skills, experience, and style fit for your exact needs. Win-win. #productmanagement #consultants #startups #technology #hiring

If your Product Manager vacancy is still open after a few months, you have a problem. If it's been open for 6 months (I've come across a few of these!), what are you doing about it? At Producto, we complete the majority of our Product searches in less than 30 days for our customers! If you take 6+ months to hire you'll be a year behind schedule when you factor in onboarding and the impact the hire will have on the business. There's a cost to the business in terms of $$$ lost through missed opportunities and a cost to the team with other people picking up the slack, burning out, etc. which increases staff turnover. Too many companies are obsessed with having "applicants" and monitoring the wrong metrics that leads to roles sitting open for months and months. Customers who use a specialist like Producto spend less time trying to hire and more time taking their products to market which drives revenue and growth! Hiring should be completed in weeks, not months. DM me or email j.jordan@productotalent.com to discuss how we can help you hire the right person quickly. #hiring #recruitment #productmanagement

At Producto, we specialize solely in Product Management recruitment. That makes us pretty unique. Finding the right person for any Product Management role is tough and requires a strong understanding of the industry and its nuances to make a successful appointment. Recruiters who split their time between Product and many other roles won't have the breadth of network or depth of understanding to deliver the same results we do at Producto. We make high-quality hires happen quickly because we know the US Product Management market inside and out. If you need the support of a specialist who can help you unearth that Product unicorn to take your business to the next level, DM me. We'll make it happen! #hiring #recruitment #productmanagement

8moI'm interested in hearing your perspective on the trade-off between the opportunity cost of leaving a position unfilled for an extended period versus the potential benefits of hiring a motivated new employee who, although may require some time to ramp up, could start making a significant impact within the first 90 days. What are your thoughts on balancing these considerations?
