I have a query though..the clients I work with have about 70+ vendors and we need to submit non-duplicate profiles for any given JD. In this scenario resumes from job boards end up being duplicate 90% of the time and we have no other resort but do cold calling/ reference generation. Would really appreciate if you could advise on effective methods to generate relevant profiles wuickly through sourcing methods other than Job Boards. With Best Regards, Rashmi Hi ,

You don’t need resumes to find people on the Internet? Yes, you certainly don’t need resumes to find great candidates - you can search blogs, user groups, company directories, conference attendee lists, etc., and find lots of people. Unfortunately, in most cases, without a resume we can’t reliably determine exactly where these people live (kinda helpful to know), how much experience they have (or how recent it’s been), or what they have been specifically responsibile for.
