Hard to get Candidates to Relocate (relocation)? Due to Low Housing Prices?

In better times, a standard relocation package included a house-hunting trip, moving expenses, and maybe closing costs and realtor fees.  These days of falling housing prices are inspiring more companies to offer home-buying perks to the packages of even lower-level candidates if the candidate’s house doesn’t sell, according to the Wall Street Journal

Relocation has always been a big decision, even if the move is to a very desirable location.  But if a candidate anticipates major problems with selling his or her current house, it could put a damper on his or her enthusiasm over the new job.  There are tips to be found on negotiating a buyout offer with a hiring company, but although some companies are adding buyouts to their packages, some companies are cutting costs instead. 

If your internal talent won’t move, call me. I can find talent who will…
or who lives there already. And then you can use the $$ savings for training or other revenue-generating activities. In fact, using a recruiter and hiring locally could be a profit center for you.
Call me.

There are many great opportunities right now in medical sales, laboratory sales, pharmaceutical sales, clinical diagnostics sales, imaging sales, biotech sales, DNA products sales, cellular/molecular products sales, medical equipment sales, medical device sales, pathology sales, hospital equipment sales, and surgical supplies sales.  Don’t let a relocation issue become a missed opportunity.
