Learning the Art and Science of Sourcing Candidates
A short while ago, I wrote an article on CruiterTalk explaining how I believe anyone can learn the “Art” of sourcing candidates.
In my recruiting career, I’ve come across many people who believe that sourcing candidates from databases, ATS’s, and the Internet is difficult to learn.
I think that there are a number of contributing factors to this belief, including the idea that sourcing is more art than science, exposure to poor and/or ineffective training, the lack of access to a sourcing mentor, and in some cases – the absence of a true desire to master the craft.
My opinion is that sourcing is actually more science than art and can be relatively easy to learn, provided you actually WANT to learn and have access to the proper training and resources.
