Why Hiring Employees Has Become a Challenge for Recruiters with Amber Smith of InsideView

Hiring new people has become one of the most challenging tasks for a company. Given how incredibly competitive compensation plans have become, it's hard to chase talent as they’re ready to turn down any offer that doesn't meet their needs.

However, should compensation be the determining factor for a candidate? Even if compensation plans aren't as convenient as expected, candidates should look at the opportunities available at the company and how they can use them to gain valuable experience in the field, whether it's sales or something else.

In this episode of Taking the Lead, Christina Brady welcomes Amber Smith, the VP of Small Business & Mid-Market Sales at InsideView (a Demandbase company). They get into the challenges of hiring talent, how compensation plans impact the candidate's decision while choosing a company, the importance of chasing opportunities, and other ideas concerning hiring and paying employees today.
