How the total is calculated
This calculator simply adds up the typical length of each stage in a hiring pipeline: application review, initial screening, interview rounds (number of rounds × days between each), offer negotiation, and background checks. The sum gives an estimated end-to-end timeline from application to offer acceptance.
Actual timelines vary widely by company, role seniority, and scheduling availability, so use this as a general planning estimate rather than a guarantee.
