It’s Monday Morning - Do You Still Have That Vacancy

How Long Has That Role Been Open?

If you’re staring at the same unfilled vacancy this Monday as you were last Monday… and the Monday before that… it’s time to act.

Vacancies that linger aren’t just an HR problem — they become a business issue.

The True Cost of Inaction

Leaving a role unfilled costs your team more than just time. You risk:

  • Burning out current staff picking up the slack

  • Delaying critical projects or service levels

  • Creating uncertainty within your team

  • Losing candidates to faster-moving competitors

Why You Might Be Stuck

  • Your job ad is attracting the wrong people

  • Your salary benchmarking is outdated

  • You’re not reaching passive, high-quality candidates

  • Your process is too slow — or too complex
