- helps you sound out the candidate on the issue and identify those who aren't that serious about making a move;
- raises the issue at the right time (rather than when the offer is received, which can make you look self-interested).
Be sure to get your candidates to think about why they're leaving. Accepting a counter-offer is almost always a very bad idea - here's why.
