I agree with @102 - this is what I saw as well.

Can only speak for people on my immediate team… it was number of hires this year and they went up the list from the bottom and (possibly arbitrarily) drew a line somewhere. Nothing else seems to have been a factor, I was expecting them to go for people outside of location strategy who are known to be tied to office x but live 200 miles away.

@a5

I just want to say that when sales people manage a TA team it is often because the business feels like they need to (1) improve their candidate selling (or selling to the candidate in this case the job or position) (2) and negotiate (sell a dream at a lower package).

Long terms strategy suffers, risk of mismatches go up, misaligned goals and becoming overly transactional is an often outcome.

Generally speaking...

I’m sure it was a number of factors. Cost, business units, remote etc
