Today’s Reality

• Reality – More Work, Less Staff• Reality – More Sourcing Resources than ever before• Reality – If you don’t consciously use tools to share

information, you’ll be lost in it.

If we spread some of our knowledge to the recruiters, we can free up more time for strategic sourcing activities

Staying on Top of Information

• LinkedIn Answers (and other frequently updated content)

• Sharing RSS Feeds with co-workers

• While it might take us a while to set everything up, once done so properly, the recruiters can stay up-to-speed on searches, articles, and other pieces of relevant content

Let’s Try Another

• Instead of saving a blog/question to an RSS Feed, let’s save a web search that we will frequently use

• The goal here is to create a “base” search that can easily be modified by other team members

Organizing and Sharing Resources

• Build a resource list for each client, vertical, industry, etc.

• Include target companies, organizations, schools, publications, and social media sites

export them to a file that can be sent to team members

Maximum Collaboration with CSE’s

• Custom Search Engines• Make one for each client, vertical, industry, etc.• Will save time by targeting only those websites specific

to your topic• Once we teach recruiters how to add/subtract sites, time

will be freed up as they can run their own searches• Multiple options for CSE’s

Google – We will use today

Final Thoughts

• Recruiters and sourcers will always be working hand-in-hand

• While it is our job to “feed” the recruiters information, we can still share a few tactics without giving away all our secrets

• By utilizing a few tools and setting the team down the correct path, we can begin to free time up for additional sourcing activities
