Interfirm Competition for Human Resources: Evidence From the Software Industry
研究企业如何应对员工被单一竞争对手挖走，发现招聘方和员工的特征会影响目标企业是否防御或报复，对理解企业间人力资源竞争有启示。
To test a model of interfirm competition for human resources, firms' responses to the loss of employees to single rivals were examined. Results suggest that attributes of hiring firms and of hired employees are associated with target firms' decisions to defend and retaliate against labor market rivals. The findings have implications for the validation of intrafirm differences in human resource systems. This study opens the door for further theorizing and modeling of interfirm competition for intangible resources.
