"Headhunters" are firms that, for a fee, undertake to recruit for their clients personnel who are greatly needed yet hard to find. The clients, in turn, require that they be offlimits to headhunters whose services they buy; i.e., headhunters cannot raid one client's staff on behalf of other clients.

Of the followings, which would, if feasible, be the best strategy for a company to pursue if that company wanted both to use headhunters to fill a vacancy and, if successful in filling the vacancy, to reduce the risk of losing the newly hired employee to a competitor?

A. Find out which headhunters recruit workers of the sort being sought and employ all those headhunters.
B. Find out which headhunter has the highest success rate in recruiting for its clients and hire that firm.
C. Find out how much the company's competitors currently pay staff of the sort being sought and offer to pay prospective employees higher salaries.
D. Find out whether any of the company's competitors are seeking to recruit workers of the sort being sought and, if so, make sure not to hire the same headhunters that they hire.
E. Find out which of the company's competitors are on the client lists of the headhunters who are being considered for the job.

Answer is (A)...but why? thank you for your help!

题目说，猎头公司可以帮你挖人。而且当其他客户找这家猎头公司挖人的时候，如果你是这家猎头公司的客户，能保证不挖你公司的人。

怎么能够挖到人的同时，保证自己的人不被挖？成为所有挖这类人才的猎头公司的客户。

D is wrong because your men will be lost if you do not choose the headhunters that your competitors are using. so you cannot avoid losing the newly-hired employees to your competitors.
