Poaching is IN

Poacher Poacher everywhere , not a time to think........

Poaching have been one of the oldest and the most extensive HR function (excuse me! For saying so).
This is a function on which nothing have been documented, but one can often overhear long stories almost everywhere.
Earlier this was a trend popular only among the top honchos of the corporate world, however as time progressed the so called Placement/Poaching agencies have taken this practice to the middle and lower management levels as well.

This poaching practice plagues several industries in phases earlier its used to be popular in manufacturing and sales companies, then later with the upcoming of IT companies , IT professionals used to be the prime poaching targets, then came the BPO phase, now is the turn of the our civil aviation industry. The pilots are being poached across several new airlines.

Besides, causing a significant economic loss to the losing firm, poaching also causes a loss of motivation in the company staff.

However, time and again certain steps have been jointly taken up to curb such practices, but I believe none of such steps can be effective in curbing poaching.
