Hi
Sanjeev said Pretty much similar thoughts were there about Hitler, and other such leaders. History shows that the world took a really long time to stand up to him, simply because they followed the perception story and said "Oh no, He's the leader, he won't do things like that." and the world would write letters to him, and Hitler just laughed at those pieces of paper.
So you really shouldn't expect everyone to follow a particular definition of ethics / ethical behaviour. There are enough and more cultures in our world where the differences and similarities are stark! According to you, it appears that headhunting is ethical because the resumes are not openly available, and I really cannot agree on this reason - correct me if I am wrong. I look at the end result viz. an organization's loss of human capital, future directions and business, and I still can't call it ethical. There is an expression "this is just business, not personal". I wonder who draws the line, and who decides where it is to be drawn.
You're right, one doesn't need to headhunt a fresher - unless you are looking for a technical graduate fresher, thus your search criteria changes, and the method / sources to recruit also changes. All the same, you would use the same bait which you would use to attract some senior person :D only the numbers change :wink: :twisted:
Thanks for the distinction - but to my mind, it is still semantics.
