Smart Sourcing: A Quick Guide To Recruiting from Desiree DeLattre

1. Smart Sourcing: A Quick Guide To Recruiting 2.22.16 Based on the Jerry Rollins presentation: Building Great Teams
2. Recruiting Rules of Thumb • All senior leadership should be sourcing their own people • Recruiting starts at the top and happens at every level • Recruit even when you feel that you’re fully staffed • Review your recruiting plan monthly
3. Employees – they know what you’re looking for. Reward them for the talent they bring in! • Your competitors – choose the talent you want (not the ones that call you) and offer them a competitive package. • Suppliers and customers – ask who (outside of your company) has been impressing them lately. Where To Source (pt. 1)
4. Where To Source (pt. 2) • Internal candidates – develop a career path • LinkedIn – number 1 technology source for recruiting • Centers of Influence – meetups and clubs, churches, connections, non-profits, friends, etc.
5. Where NOT To Source • Headhunters – there are a few exceptions, such as Doctors and Senior Executive Level positions. • Newspapers – because this is 2016. • People looking for jobs – the success ratio is ten times higher when you hire someone who is currently employed. • Colleges – there are exceptions if you have amazing senior pools as well as a training program
6. What Are You Looking For? • Don’t solely focus on hiring for skill, spend time finding the right personality fit for the position, and the right cultural fit for your company. • Do they fit, or are you making them fit? It is better to take more time to find the right person, than to spend more time fixing a mistake.
