Candidates and Counteroffers

In today’s candidate driven culture (more jobs than qualified candidates), companies are seeing more turned down offers.  Some of this may be the result of counteroffers.  What can companies do to reduce this problem?  One thing is to really know what is motivating your candidate to consider change.  A reputable recruiter will have this information in spades so that you can personalize your approach to great candidates.  Change in culture, clear leadership, more collaborative group, more vacation time, any and all of these can help you seal the deal long before the offer gets inked.  Recruiters are there to help you keep the candidate focused on what is most important to them.  More money won’t fix the overall problems and studies show over and over again that accepting a counter will still result in your employee leaving within one year.  We can help you decrease counter offers and fill positions faster.  Give us a call!
