According to a recent report from LinkedIn, for the first time in the past 4 years, the percentage of people open to changing  jobs has skyrocketed. Yet, recruiting quality candidates is still very challenging. What is the number one reason professionals change jobs? They are looking for better career opportunities. People want greater opportunities for advancement that their current company can't provide. Generally, younger generations want advancement and new challenges, while older generations prefer to stay and grow in the same industry. Compensation is the second reason people accept a new job. Although money isn’t the main incentive for changing jobs, almost 75% get a higher salary in their new jobs. When asked how they first heard about their new jobs, the number one answer was through a referral, followed by staffing agencies, online job boards, social professional networks and hiring manager outreach. Despite the large number of people in the job market, recruiting leaders are still having a hard time securing quality candidates. The key is to convince and attract the best candidates by showing how the job connects with their own career aspirations and needs. If you can do that, then you will transform their careers and perhaps your organization as well.
