Sourcing is not Recruiting

Sourcing Strategies for 2024 and beyond 

WHAT is Sourcing?

•   Sourcing is a proven practice to help organizations expand their talent pools

WHY do Sourcing?

• Fosters a positive customer experience for applicants

• Expands talent pools by accessing passive candidates that are not actively looking for another job.

• Connecting with passive candidates in a timely, consistent way builds an engaged talent pool

• This is challenging as today’s Talent Acquisition/HR professional is stretched thin as it is.  

WHO can source?

• Current Talent Acquisition/HR Professionals

• Designated Sourcing Professional on the team

• Hire a 3rd party sourcer or head hunting company 

HOW to start a sourcing process?

• Creating an SOP.  Standard Operating Procedure

• Identifying the stakeholders who need to be involved 

• What training is needed. 

• Layout timelines and expectations

• Do you need to hire a consultant to help you start?
