Use Engaging Elements to Reach out to Candidates |
|
 |
| |
|
How adept are you at using Web 2.0 technologies to reach or find the best candidates? More than 30 percent of adults, in the U.S., between 25 and 34 years, create online content (blogs, video uploads, etc.) on a monthly basis. If this population's characteristic is a representative of your target, then are your sourcing practices in sync with them? What kind of online content do you produce to attract prospective candidates in this population?
You can use these technologies to be more persuasive, to better assess and engage candidates. One characteristic of this population is that they prefer to watch rather than read. You can create video ads that make a compelling case to a candidate on why they should join your organization or apply to a job ad. Your videos can show the workplace, details about the position, feedback from existing employees in similar roles, etc. |

Exciting Internet Sources for Finding Passive Candidates |

Have you ever tried sourcing from podcasts, videos, etc.? Though you might not find resumes with contact info, you will most likely get to know the prospect's name, area of expertise and where they are working.
The following are some of the sources you can use
| - |
Everyzing (www.everyzing.com) - A search engine for finding podcasts and video |
| 2) |
Blinkx (www.blinkx.tv) |
| 2) |
Best Tech Videos (www.besttechvideos.com) - A good source for sourcing passive leads in the tech space. |
Simply enter your search term, in quotes, in the search bar and run a search. For example, if you are looking for a software engineer, enter "software engineer" and do a search.
Note: Video search engines are not tuned for boolean searches. When running a search, focus just on job titles, technology, skill and company names.
