Take the Work out of Recruiting

Recruiting and Sourcing, what's the difference? Large recruiting organizations and the best agencies know.

Recruiting is an art, it's identifying the right prospect, attracting them, and closing them. Not much different from sales, in fact, the best organizations view it as selling your company. Recruiting is the most valuable function of your company. Before you argue that it's sales or senior management, ask yourself how you find and attract your top sales people and managers: you recruit them.

Sourcing is a commodity. Sourcing is not recruiting, sourcing is lead generation and qualification. Sourcing done poorly, takes up time that should be spent with hiring managers and pre-qualified candidates. Sourcing, done properly, gives recruiters time to discuss strategy with hiring managers and feeds a pipeline of qualified candidates for recruiters to attract.

Most companies don't have the access to all the major job boards or the time to screen through all the resumes they may get from them.
