Here's the thing: Money is a big thing, but it isn't the only deciding factor for candidates. In this Tactical Tuesday episode, Sam and Vivien discuss allllll the many factors that can influence a candidate's decision when considering job opportunities. 

Throughout the conversation, they reference the CLAMPS framework — which includes Challenges, Location, Advancement Opportunities, Money, People, and Security — as a tool to understand candidate motivations. Vivien suggests recruiters use this framework in interviews, asking open-ended questions to uncover powerful insights that can shape job postings, salary expectations, role structure, and beyond.
