The fact that they have to actually hire people for the position, and therefore need a decent value proposition?

When the costs of hiring for the position are much higher, "need to hire" can start to look fuzzy. Just like the "need to buy a soda" is different at $2 and $20. Demand for labor is at least somewhat elastic.
