Candidate Sourcing

Not able to find a great hire for your business? Failing to identify skilled candidates? To achieve it, start looking for talent where no one else is looking. Recruiters who dig deeper at the time of sourcing can help your business find a great hire.

Here are some tips to help identify the hidden talent:
  • Start looking beyond famous institutes: Many recruiters have the point of view that students from well-known institutes have more knowledge. But if you follow this approach, you will miss the great talent. Different sourcing websites or social media can be used to source candidates.
  • Prefer transferable skills: These are the skills that are not limited to the specific industry such as communication, management, problem-solving etc. Transferable skills can be identified by giving real client scenarios during the interview.
  • Be creative with search terms: More common method is to use the job title as a keyword. But if you only use the job title as the keyword, then you will get limited candidates. Try other keywords which are related to the industry as well. There could be typing errors in skills. So always try different combinations of spellings.
To find great hires, the same old techniques won’t work. Try changing it and starting using new, smart techniques.
