I used to think that a great product or a well-known brand was enough to close top tier talent.
I was wrong.
And if your senior leadership thinks that your brand recognition or sexy product is all your recruiting team needs, they’re wrong too.
Reality check: The best engineers and sales reps don’t need your job. They have too many options.
