[quote=Anonymous]I don't understand the multiple rounds of interviews, etc., for a regular office drone position making $50-$200k a year. For something like CEO, or direct report to CEO, maybe I can see it.

1. HR screen (can/should be done on the phone) to verify the guy's not completely BS'ing and make sure you don't have some guy wanting $100k when you're only paying $70k, that sort of thing. 
2. Subject matter phone screen to weed out the more subtle BS'ers.
3. In-person interview, possibly with 2-4 additional people -- don't waste a candidate's time with more than 2 of these. If someone is in demand and ready to move on, then odds are they will be picked up by someone else while you take

If you make it to a subject matter phone screen then at least follow up.

Rank your finalists 1-N, and then if you run into funding BS or the such, let your finalists know. You may end up having to hire the #2 or #3 on your list so you don't have to sit around for another 3 months of BS. [/quote]
