Money, Scope or Title?

I normally ask my interviewees to rank these 3 in order of importance. Surprisingly, the answer I get is always the same: (1) Scope (2) Money (3) Title

There's really no right or wrong answer but I get the feeling that was the safe answer?

I asked the big one and of course, his answer was predictably "ALL 3!"

Maybe I should throw in a 4th - "People" and see what comes back.

Or maybe I should gather the satistics from a pool of people and come back with a managers handbook:

How to motivate employees who are "MTS" or "SMT" or "TMS" etc etc

Hmmmm...

Oh, at this stage in my career, I'm a "MST".
