Comment on: Topic 'Digging Into RecruitingBlogs.com v2.08: The Death of Sourcing': l be elaborating on this in future comments.... ............................... Maureen: Responding to Maureen (at the risk of being accused of being even more self-promotional than usual): Maureen, you have a very successful and sophisticated sourcing business, and I have much to learn from you. Right now, I am in an early, unsophisticated stage of operations, so I operate much more simply: If a prospective client is interested in some of my services, I ask them what they need as specifically as possible. I then go back to the appropriate group (internet sourcing, phone sourcing, board searches, scheduling/coordinating, etc.) and see what they think about the possible assignment. At this point, three things can happen: 1) “It’s easy, no problem Keith!” I tell the client “let’s do it!” 2) “We can do it, Keith but there may be problems”. I tell the client this, explain the possible problems, and see if the client wants us to go ahead, anyway. 3) “We can’t/don’t do this, Keith.” I tell the client this and we turn down the search- I want to make sure that if we do something, we do it well or not at all. I believe in small, conservative pilot projects, so when we work with a new client, we try to perform a little bit of work, submit it, and tweak the results based on feedback. If we can’t get it to the customers’ satisfaction at this point, we stop and charge the customer nothing. If it’s working, we proceed to conclusion with periodic feedback. As far as specifics (numbers, processes, etc), it comes to what satisfies the customer within our capabilities to do well. Excellent satisfaction of realistic expectations is our goal. By using the pilot project approach and submitting work in small batches, the customer should have very little dissatisfaction, and if we can’t resolve it, they won’t pay for it. At worst; they are out some small amount of time at their end and labor at ours. Except for the individuals I contract directly (usually on an hourly basis), most of the groups are paid in whatever manner their employers decide. Hope this helps. .................................................................... Everyone: Though this has probably already been said, I believe that the number of people who are hard to find (BY ANY MEANS) will be decreasing, so the paradigm will switch (or has already switched) from "hard to find" to "hard to get". This could open many opportunities for people who are able to get others to listen to what they have to say ("That must be nice...." -kh); I guess you could say they have good "opening" skills.
