One of them is Stelian Marian (32), who has just left his position as head of human resources and organisational management with OTP Bank, in order to focus on his own business - consultancy firm Synergon Consulting. In the two years he spent with OTP Bank, the former manager turned down nine job offers, some of them including salaries of 7,000 to 9,000 euros.
Cristian Popescu, the new HR vice-president of outsourcing company Genpact, a spin-off of General Electric, had to choose from four very good offers when he left his human resources manager position with Interbrew. A year before, he says he had received seven or eight offers he describes as "big". "The choice was very difficult to make," Popescu recalls. "It feels good to get offers but not all of them at the same time and very attractive."
