Headhunting!

The term itself implies that headhunting involves targeting individuals specifically for top-level or mid-level positions.

Headhunting is the process of identifying and attracting highly qualified individuals with the necessary skills. It entails persuading these individuals to join your organization, often in opposition to their current employer.

The headhunting process typically includes the following steps:

1. Identifying potential candidates
2. Holding discussions with candidates
3. Assessing candidate interest and exploring other options if needed
4. Arranging a formal discussion
5. Extending a job offer or continuing the search for other candidates
6. Requesting the individual to join and providing necessary documentation.

This process is essential for securing suitable candidates for top or middle-level management positions.

For example, when some individuals shop, they may visit multiple stores before making a purchase. They look for something that catches their eye and fits their needs before spending their money in a thoughtful manner.
