It is the recruiter’s job to make sure that the candidate is screened thoroughly to understand their true motivations when they’re seeking employment.
Is the candidate just using you to angle for a raise or promotion and strategically seeking out a job offer so they can announce to their boss they’ve been offered another opportunity hoping for that counteroffer?
Nothing is worse for a recruiter than losing an ideal candidate to a counteroffer made by the candidate’s current employer because the recruiter has invested so much time, effort, energy and resources.
