In this excerpt, the speaker emphasizes that candidate feedback should be viewed as part of a long‑term, non‑transactional relationship rather than a one‑off hiring event.

The speaker highlights the hospitality sector, where candidates frequently move between employers, and argues that maintaining a supportive, accessible connection encourages candidates to return to the original firm for future opportunities.
