This book illustrates the foundations of status research from the
perspective of recruiting. The ever-increasing competitive pressure
on both sides of the market has led to the growing significance of
prestige in employment as an efficient yardstick of performance. At
the same time, mounting student loans make the need for a
prestigious education palpable. While prestige has always been
important in the job market, continuously increasing competitive
pressure is driving the role of prestige to new heights. This book
shows how insights from consumer research on prestige-driven
behavior can be helpful in gaining a better understanding of
applicants' motives. Furthermore, it investigates the effect of
prestige preference versus value-based, person-organization fit.
Lastly, the book reports on experimental evidence that prestigious
employer preference can provide a basis for risky decision-making
behavior. Prestige is an increasingly powerful motivator in today's
job market - one that requires a closer look.
