The classical secretary problem involves sequentially interviewing a pool of N applicants with the aim of hiring exactly the best one in the pool-nothing less is good enough. The optimal decision strategy is easy to describe and the probability of success is known. In this paper, we analyze properties of the optimal Markov time related to the variants of the classical secretary problem. Modifications to the problem take into account the behavior that adopts a loss suffered by the recruiter in the absence of a final indication of the candidate or when the chosen candidate is not appropriate. There is no guarantee that the optimal strategy for these problems is unique. This ambiguity in the solution is particularly interesting when we analyze the time spent on recruitment.
