10 business days is the optimal time to bring an interview process to a successful outcome.
The way to achieve this is to tighten timelines from stage to stage and cut down the number of people involved in the process. Now I know what you are thinking, that more people should be involved. Which is incorrect.
The reason we involve more people in the interview process is because we value their “opinion” or “input” on the individual. But opinion has no value when it comes to making a hiring decision. And opinion is what you get when your interview questions are not tied to gathering evidence.
Opinion breeds assumptions, bias & personal motives. Which do NOT serve the growth of the business.
