YouTube short (Phil Risher) giving recruiting advice focused on explaining compensation and career progression to candidates. The speaker emphasizes that candidates take on full risk when leaving a job, so recruiters must be prepared to explain the compensation delta and a clear path to advancement; timing for compensation conversations should be later in the process once investment is clear.
Or can't explain the compensation. That could be a deal breaker right away because in the candidate's eyes, they are taking 100% of the risk. I am leaving a company right now that I'm getting compensated well and I'm going to Phil's company and Phil can't tell me how to get there. That's going to put the brakes on these conversations real quick. Thinking that out of what the delta is and how do I get someone to this level is a really important part of the recruiting stage. And that doesn't need to be said to conversation number one. But as you get someone and you feel like, okay, this person is worth investing in and have to the conversation, I need to be prepared to have that conversation.
