Mission Impossible? Hiring the Most Qualified Talent from the Forgotten Freeway

Would you rather call 5 highly targeted prospects or 50 people to network with? Recruitment’s value proposition is “hire the best talent, not the most available talent.” 34-71% of the qualified talent pool cannot be identified online or through database research. There is no substitute for calling into a company, identifying the individual who heads your business’ competing organization, and identifying that person’s entire team. You’ll hear actual recorded calls demonstrating how quickly, methodically, and easily entire teams of candidates can be identified and mapped, in organization chart form, in a few phone calls. Reduce your phone time while increasing your phone confidence, efficiency, effectiveness—and the quality of your results. This session takes a traditional approach to recruiting and turns it on its head by offering several techniques to make you the “go-to” expert at your company. Minimize information overload and maximize your ROI as you build your personal brand as the Deliverer of Results!

You’ve analyzed your ATS, browsed your Boolean, rifled through the resumes, searched the social sites, tweaked the technology… and what is your Yield for Recruiting Investment? How many on-target candidates do you have and how much time has elapsed? After this can’t-be-missed session, you will know how to control the information overload and produce the most qualified candidates as efficiently as possible. Novice and experienced recruiters and sourcers alike will be astonished by these direct, ethical, proactive telephone sourcing techniques to supplement and complete your internet and database research. Learn critical-sourcing survival skills from The Seven Habits of Successful Sourcers™ and see how one of the world’s leading recruiting experts utilizes methods to rapidly and inexpensively identify key talent online and by phone in all industries, all functions, and all levels, worldwide. Conni will share her passion for the hunt as you discover the lost art of telephone sourcing in a battle to work smarter, not harder.

You will learn how to:

  • Increase candidate quality and hire the most-qualified talent, not the most available talent
  • Identify the on-target, qualified talent you seek from the very companies the hiring manager wants to recruit from
  • Manage priorities and diminish information overload
  • Build the competitive intelligence and make each call count
  • Reel in truly passive talent
  • Add value to your clients beyond presenting candidates, improve your individual ROI in your firm and build your personal brand as the “Deliverer of Results”!
