Dear All,

Apart from the traditional ways of talent sourcing like newspaper advertisements, consultants, and even internet postings, what could be the innovative ways of talent sourcing? How can we reach the candidate that we want but are not reaching through any of the traditional methods?

Thanks,

Hi Neeti,

Recently, I saw ads appearing in movie theaters, shopping malls, etc. It's a good and innovative way to attract candidates who are not actively looking for jobs. Other methods could include posting ads in specific discussion forums or networking sites like Orkut, LinkedIn, and the recently added Brijj. The turnaround time (TAT) is higher in these cases, but they do sometimes serve as valuable sources.

Hello, You can even try Head Hunting... I have done that personally and got very good response. Regards Karuna

Hi,

Headhunting, though a very traditional form of sourcing, has become unethical. It is better to have headhunting done through consultants rather than doing it within the company itself, as it puts the company's brand name at stake.

Looking at what most people like to listen to, watch, wear, use, and what attracts common people, such as sending job vacancies through mobile and advertisements through FM radio, I believe these are the ways we can attract a large number of applicants.

Hey, this may sound bizarre, but I have known recruiters who recruit from chat rooms and have recruited people as far as Africa while sitting right here in India at their notebooks, just by chatting.

Hi all,

I advertised for the HR Head position and requested CVs from interested candidates on citeHR. However, only one CV has been received, even though one full week has passed.

Hi Manish,

You can try some training institutes because you can poach as per your requirements. Try for NGOs; it helps you a lot. Posting pamphlets inside the office, sending emails to your employees, SMS, etc., are some ways to reach out.

Hi Manish,

We can post the vacancies on the company's website and also include them in presentation slides for seminars/workshops conducted with professional business bodies like CII. These are innovative talent sourcing techniques.

Thanks,
