"We are hiring but the candidates keep dropping out of our process. What do we do?" Over recent weeks, Kathryn Pride has been asked this very question by hiring managers and talent acquisition specialists in her network, highlighting a trend for high-quality candidates unexpectedly turning down competitive offers. But why, and what can be done? Using real-life examples, Kathryn has written about the most common themes for this behaviour amongst candidates and how employers can prepare for and mitigate against the likelihood of this happening. Some examples explored include: 1. Staying put - not being satisifed with their current working environment, but choosing to remain 'just in case' 2. Misaligned motivations - opting for a higher immediate salary with limited growth opportunity, over a role with guaranteed greater long-term career and earning potential 3. Pausing the search - unsure of what they want, candidates are considering new qualfications and a career pivot https://lnkd.in/e8ZwGSmF Read Kathryn's article for deeper insights, and let us know if you have experienced any of these behaviours in your hiring processes in the comments below. #candidatebehaviour #hiringprocess

Our latest Investment Banking Compensation report has been covered by The Guardian. https://bit.ly/3zsESNl Dartmouth's Founder, Logan Naidu, spoke with The Guardian last week to discuss the outlook for the City - and industry in general - following a period of surging interest rates, a slump in deals, and caps on banker bonuses. Our latest compensation report analyses the trends in bonuses and salaries at the Bulge Bracket firms over the last few years, forecasting where we will see strong shoots of growth later in the year and what this means for the hiring patterns and opportunities.

Happy 25th birthday to our sister company Pure Search! What a milestone to achieve, and you're looking great for it!

Last week our CEO Terri Loska joined Interactive Workshops at their Gala Dinner at Fortnum & Mason, and there was an unexpected highlight on the night! The guests were a vibrant group of HR, L&D and senior professionals, invited to enjoy an evening of networking and discussion on the theme ‘Consumers vs Contributors’. Over dinner there were a number of great contributors sharing their stories, poems and speeches on developing future leaders and creating inclusive workplaces. And there was an after-dessert 'treat' for Terri, along with Darren Cross FCIPD and Ella Vize...Keynote Karaoke! Each were surprised with having to give an off-the-cuff two-minute motivational speech to the room. Great fun!
