We’re seeing more candidates walk away from roles – even strong opportunities.
Not because they’re being unrealistic… but because the hiring process isn’t working for them.
In today’s market, candidates are rejecting roles mainly because of:
Counteroffers
Culture misalignment
Slow hiring processes
Lack of transparency
At March Recruitment, we’ve noticed that speed, clarity and honesty are no longer “nice to haves” – they’re deal-breakers.
The strongest clients right now are the ones who:
Move decisively
Communicate clearly
Are upfront from the start
If you want to win top talent in 2026, this is non-negotiable.
