Abstract
A number of indicators suggest that the social norms that once deterred labor market competitors from hiring or
“poaching” each others' employees are breaking down. This study explores the competitive
interaction that results when one firm attempts to hire employees from a competing firm (known as “talent
raiding”). Results suggest that attributes of the raiding firm, the targeted firm, and targeted human
capital will affect how a targeted firm responds to a talent raid. The study suggests a number of tactics raiding
firms can use to avoid retaliation and suggests tactics targeted firms can use to repel would‐be talent
raiders. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
