Waking the Sleeping Giant - Passive Candidates Won't be Passive for Long!

I hear so much about active and passive candidates and it used to be true that the best sales rainmakers never had to "look" for a job. We called them passive because they had people chasing after them, begging them to work for them, without ever looking at job ads online or in a newspaper.

Things are changing now though. Just as it isn't common for employees to retire after 20 years at the same company, the Rainmakers are looking for much more in a career than the highest pay - and they are willing to shop around for it quietly.

This article Waking the Sleeping Giant - Passive Candidates Won't be Passive for Long! by Bryan Johanson goes into great detail on how you can attract these Rainmakers. The recruiter can't do it alone - everyone on your hiring team has to work at wooing the best!
