Job-hopping increases, in possible boon to wage growth and productivity
We often have positions open and our office is close to &lt;redacted fortune 100 company&gt;.<p>So, every so often, we get a few applicants from there.<p>Some of them are good, and we offer them a job; only to find out that they&#x27;re not interested anymore. Usually something along the lines of &quot;thanks for the offer, but I&#x27;ve been given bigger and better responsibilities and I&#x27;m not looking at leaving anymore&quot;, or &quot;I&#x27;ve been assigned to a more exciting project, I will see how it goes&quot;, or &quot;I&#x27;ve had a new position offered within the company so I will follow this lead for now&quot;.<p>So, yeah... We&#x27;re happy to help the other guys move up the ladder, really, been there myself; but it&#x27;s a bit sad, that&#x27;s what it takes to get promoted: another job offer and a resignation letter in hand.
