        Correct. Much smaller country with a much more limited employee pool, means the companies will have to show a bit of respect to the job seekers. Don’t wanna piss someone off they may need later, or worse, piss someone off who tells everyone the company is shit and to be avoided. It does depend a lot on the field and region though.

      Or just a small industry where everyone knows everyone else. I personally know probably 3/4 of all the hiring managers in my area for my field. Hell, two of them are in my weekly board game group. I could literally text someone for work right now and be hired before my DoorDash driver arrives with my dinner.

      But during COVID, the entire industry was dry as a bone, and we lost a lot of good workers to other industries. As with everything, it entirely depends on the nature of the work.
