Four kinds of recruiting messages that the best people respond to: • "Go with a Winner." It's for people who want a high-performing company, a company where they're going to get lots of advancement opportunities. • "Big Risk, Big Reward." The people who respond to it want an environment where they're challenged either to do exceptionally well or to leave - where there's considerable risk but good compensation, and where they can advance their career rapidly. • "Save the World." It attracts people who want a company with an inspiring mission and an exciting challenge - a pharmaceuticals, high-tech, or green energy company for instance. • "Lifestyles" message. These people seek companies that offer them more flexibility and better lifestyle benefits - such as a good location or exciting product.
