Unwritten rules of undercutting competitors

Thread Content

A friend who works as a market director recently hired a new client manager, a relatively junior position. The recruitment method was extremely mediocre: simply placing an ad on job websites for three to five hundred yuan, receiving a pile of resumes, and then choosing this girl. She won because she had previously worked at a client’s company of a friend and was very familiar with this industry. The type of person who can get started right away once they start working. Who would have thought that when the person in charge of the marketing department, namely the company’s general manager, found out about this, he became furious and shouted at his friend, \"Have you lost your mind?\" With so many people looking for jobs everywhere, why do they choose to poach employees from clients’ companies? Is it worth offending customers over such a person? Yes, it’s not allowed to poach employees from clients’ companies; this should be an established unspoken rule. The account director can only blame himself for being too simple-minded to consider such an obvious truth.

“Are there unspoken rules behind \"poaching\"? It seems these unspoken rules are everywhere. It seems that one really needs to think carefully before taking action, otherwise one might inadvertently fall victim to unspoken rules.
