  "account": "Headhunters in Spain are finding it difficult to fill vacancies due to a shortage of skilled professionals and changing priorities among candidates. The most sought-after profiles are technical, such as engineers, IT, and electromechanical professionals, but these individuals are scarce and often prioritize flexibility, remote work, and work-life balance over salary increases. Companies are struggling to adapt to these new demands, with many still expecting the same level of commitment and dedication as previous generations. As a result, headhunters are having trouble closing deals, even with significant salary increases, and companies are being forced to rethink their approach to attracting and retaining talent.",
  "summary": "The salary is no longer enough to cover vacancies that require presence and worsens the quality of life. Avoiding the flight of necessary talent requires an adaptation of the offer that the main headhunting firms are already working on.",
