Magpie Mentality in recruitment refers to the behaviour of serial appliers—candidates who apply indiscriminately to every job they see, driven by a compulsive attraction to new or “shiny” opportunities, regardless of their relevance or suitability. This scattergun approach often signals poor career focus, a lack of commitment, and raises red flags for recruiters and hiring managers who view such behaviour as inconsistent, unreliable, and ultimately unhirable.
