Why High-Level Achievers Are Rarely Actively Job Hunting
By: Richard Butz
Recruiting high-level achievers is difficult, mainly because those individuals are not actively looking for a job, but they are always open to the right opportunity if it represents a true career enhancement.
Fact: There are very few unemployed high-level achievers.
That reality creates a major challenge for organizations trying to hire exceptional talent using traditional recruiting methods. The strongest candidates are rarely scrolling job boards or submitting applications – they’re already employed, performing at a high level, and selective about what comes next.
