What is it with people trying to have a huge number of offers in hand.I understand having 2-3 options to choose the best but I don't quite understand the need for having more than that and then reject all except one?
Isn't that unfair to people who are desperately trying to get a much needed switch?

Yes that’s a very sad state, ppl just take offers to increase even 1 lakh , there are better ways to increase salary even with 2-3 offers
Some of my observations:
They analyse about the company after having the offer and not prior attending interviews
They take no interest in work profile prior interviews
Negotiations can be done prior interview as well to get a proper idea on ctc structure and then one should proceed
Poor negotiation tactics, insufficient market analysis

Has anyone ever posted a general marketing position? We have an open position on our marketing team but we are unsure what type of position to offer.

This person doesn’t necessarily need to have both skills but if they did great, but if only one, great too.
