If you already knew he was difficult during the requirement gathering step, my guess he would be the same, given many candidate choices. I would think maybe if you'd just given him 1 or 2 choices first and let him shoot them down, he may have given you better clues as to what he was really wanting. No right answer here, just a thought. I guess the first thing I thought when I read the case that failed, was did you give the client too many choices?

I want to double my placements, and will take this info to heart. I have faced some very similar challenges with uncooperative managers or searches outside of my expertise. Not a good use of my time. Great lesson here. APeters Awesome article. I want to double my placements, and will take this info to heart.
