Predicting the Likelihood of Change

Over the last five years, how many jobs have you had? According to a global recruitment study, 90% of the working population had three or fewer jobs during the last 5 years. More specifically: 47% of individuals have stayed in the same job43% of individuals had 2 – 3 jobs10% of individuals had more than 3 jobs When evaluating an experienced agent recruiting prospect, always ask yourself: When was the last time this person changed companies? This is important information because a prospect’s chances of making a change are much higher if they have:1. Demonstrated a willingness to change positions (had at least 1 job change        in their recent work history).2. Been in their current role for more than 2 years. If both of these conditions are met, your probability of making a hire is much better. As a bonus, you’ll also increase your chances of retaining the newly hired agent for the next few years because additional position changes become less probable.
