In this latest addition to the Fast Forward MBA series, Max Messmer, head of Robert Half International––the world′s largest specialized staffing firm––explains why the difference between hiring a merely adequate employee and a "star" has less to do with how much money you spend on recruitment and everything to do with your hiring strategy.
