Idiom – You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.

You can present someone with an opportunity, but you cannot force him or her to take advantage of it.

Example:
Jane: I told Katy about all the jobs that are available at our company, but she hasn’t applied for any of them.
Mary: You can lead a horse to water, but you can’t make it drink.
