The war for talent roars on. According to Glassdoor, recruiting one specialist translates to 250 applicants, 5 interviews and 1 candidate. The entire recruitment process can be very expensive, because according to the National Association of Colleges and Employers, the average cost in a company of up to 500 people is $7,645. Resignation from a job not only entails recruitment costs, but also the problem of work continuity, overtime, lowering moods due to the greater workload of employees from the same process, and many other consequences.
This is another reason why taking care to be (in a broad sense) an empathetic employer is crucial to the success of a company.
