Search Results - specific effort

Comment on: Topic 'Digging Into RecruitingBlogs.com v2.08: The Death of Sourcing': he less effective result when there are so many more effective sourcing techniques. And therein lies the rub - who wants to invest the time, effort and/or money to learn them? NOT MANY. And that's another fact, Jack. REMINDER -If you're considering using the services of a "sourcer" ask that sourcer SPECIFICALLY what their process(es) entail. Ask them about their experience/ask them about their training. If they tell you they "telephone source" ask them what do they mean by that? Are they calling on the telephone and "checking" info they've "found" online? Are they calling candidates they've "scraped" off the boards to see if they still have a pulse? Guess what? THIS IS NOT TELEPHONE SOURCING! This is a variant of Internet sourcing (a very weak variant) that "checks" Internet sourcing results. Don't be fooled. Telephone sourcing is when you call into a company, with or without starter information, and find out the names of people inside that company who hold specific titles doing specific jobs.

Comment on: Topic 'Open Letter to Bountyjobs: Please address this question regarding your service': of sense. What i found though after discussions with a few clients on the site who would talk to me, many or using bounty along with multiple other recruiting efforts to find candidates. It seems in many instances, it is a last ditch effort so they are offering up the positions that are extremely difficult to close. Of the numbers that i have heard, they are closing tons of deals and there are thousands of recruiters using the site with more joining daily. not exactly the best odds you want to deal with. i think you can build some relationships depending on the types of positions you are dealing with and the specific clients. But patience is definitely necessary and it is not the type of environment where you can focus all your time if you want to really be succesful in this business.…; Added by Greg at 9:42am on January 14, 2009
