Active vs Passive Candidates Explained in Executive Search

  What are Active & Passive Candidates?

 

Active & Passive Candidates


 

 

All possible candidates for a position can be placed in the Candidate Universe Triangle as below and divided into categories according to how actively they are seeking employment.  

Candidate Universe in Executive Search

 


PASSIVE Candidates


Passive Candidates in Executive Search
60% - 70% of Candidate Universe

 

 

Who are they?
Passive Candidates are people who are cfurrently employed and not seeking new employment.  They typically have a history of career stability and effectiveness.  They are mainly satisfied with their current employers and challenged in their roles.  Passive Candidates are more often mature people in the middle or late part of their careers.  Their loyalty to employers and success on the job makes them the most valuable as regular employees.  Virtually all successful senior managers are Passive Candidates.
 

How many are there? 
The majority of the working population (about 2/3's of it) can be considered Passive Candidates.  This is consistent whether the general economic situation is positive or negative.  

 
How to find them? 
Passive Candidates do not attend career fairs or send resumes to job postings.  They also do not have much contact with general employment agencies because they are satisfied with their jobs and stable in their careers. Passive Candidates are also concerned about confidentiality and often resist sending their private information to unknown sources. Such people can only be found through time-consuming direct sourcing techniques by people who are knowledgeable and trusted in the industry. Passive Candidates are generally found through personal relationships of hiring managers or through retained executive search practitioners. See Retained vs. Contingency for explanation of differences. 
 

 
MANAGEMENT RULE 

Passive candidates are usually stable and professionally mature.  Most successful management level candidates are Passive Candidates. 

  

  

 
SEMI-ACTIVE Candidates


Semi-Active Candidates in Executive Search

20% - 30% of 

Candidate Universe

 

  

Who are they?
Semi-Active Candidates are usually employed but not satisfied with their employer or unsuccessful in their position.  Some are unstable job-hoppers who change employers frequently. Others are concerned about the stability of their position due to company or personal reasons.  Semi-Active Candidates are often in the early part of their careers -- young people are naturally more transient as they build their skills and experience.  Semi-Active Candidates who are in the middle part of their careers are less valuable due to concerns over stability and perception of negative career abilities.

  

How many are there?
Between 20% - 30% of all the working population are Semi-Active Candidates, depending on the industry and state of the economy. 

 
How to find them?
These candidates are readily available through job postings, career fairs, resume databases, social networks and contingency staffing agencies. Comprehensive services like retained executive search are not required to source these candidates.  See Retained vs. Contingency for explanation of differences.  
 
 

MANAGEMENT RULE 

Semi-Active Job-Seekers are either unhappy or unstable in their current roles.  Care must be taken when recruiting them for management roles because of the risk of bringing negative influences into an organization.  
 
 

  

ACTIVE Candidates 


Active Candidates in Executive Search

5% - 10% of 

Candidate Universe

 

 

  

Who are they?
Active Candidates are generally people who are unemployed or soon will lose their jobs. They might be young people looking for their first job or displaced employees whose position was terminated. They may also be people who are extremely unhappy with their current employer and desire immediate change. 
 

How many are there?
Between 5% - 10% of all possible candidates for typical positions are of this type, depending on the industry and state of the economy. 
 
How to find them?
These candidates are readily available through job postings, career fairs, resume databases, social networks and contingency employment agencies. Comprehensive services like retained executive search are not required to locate these candidates. See Retained vs. Contingency for explanation of differences. 
 
 

MANAGEMENT RULE 

Active Job-Seekers are generally desperate for work.  Great caution must be taken in considering them for management roles.
