How to Source & Build Talent Communities

Overview:

One of the biggest challenges we see recruiters face is effective candidate sourcing and engagement. It doesn’t matter if you’re in a cyclical market, a candidate rich, or candidate short market – the fact remains it is one the biggest inhibitors to success if not done effectively.

The great news is there is a huge amount of technology available to support sourcing and candidate engagement. There's a multitude or apps, social channels, Automation tools, Geofarming, Bots, and Predictive analytic tools to name a few. But let’s not forget that in house teams and clients could have access to this very same technology too.

Sourcing and candidate engagement need to be about more than just technology alone because this will be the clear differentiator between the value we add as an industry and how you differentiate yourself from the competition. The highest performing recruiters we know, all have this in common: firstly, they know where to find them, how to engage with them authentically and most importantly maintain meaningful relationships with top talent.
