Startup Founder Highlights Challenges of No-Show Candidates in Hiring Process

Startup founder Pritesh Lakhani highlighted challenges in India's hiring process, citing instances where candidates accepted job offers but either quit shortly after joining or never showed up. To address this, his company began issuing offer letters only after candidates formally joined, aiming to reduce no-shows. Despite these efforts, the problem persists, which Lakhani attributes to a gradual erosion of trust between employers and candidates, leading to stricter recruitment policies.
