Original Post
I shared a role with a candidate about two months ago β it was a strong fit and he was genuinely #interested π
He mentioned heβd prefer to apply a bit #later because he was not ready π₯΄ I did highlight upfront that the role would likely be #closed by then.
Over the following weeks, I checked in a couple of times to see if he might #reconsider β even suggested doing an #initial interview first and slowing things down later, just to get him into the process, but he decided to hold off.
He reached out again yesterday, but the role had already been #filled. He wasnβt too happy and felt I should have kept him updated... π€―
Reality is β #timing matters and #opportunities donβt wait.
We can try to keep doors open where possible, but we canβt hold a live process indefinitely. If something looks like a strong fit, itβs often worth #engaging early and managing the timing later (this is also where a #recruiter can help navigate and #manage the process more effectively πββοΈ) β rather than waiting and potentially missing the opportunity altogether.
If youβre open and ready to #engage β here are some roles currently live:
π Quant Developer (HK)
- Join a fast-growing global quant trading firm
- Python developer with 1β6 yearsβ experience in front-office development
- Lean team with exposure to quant strategy work
π Quant Analyst (HK)
- Join one of the largest hedge funds globally
- Open to sell-side QR candidates with 2β6 yearsβ experience in quant trading/research
- Opportunity to work in a pod-like structure
π C# Engineer (HK/SG)
- Join a high-performing hedge fund expanding in Asia
- Open to C# engineers with financial services background
- Multiple headcounts across different teams
Cant believe Q1 just flew by β coffee budget still alive though! Feel free to reach out for a casual chat! Drinks are on me! π
