High quality, low-cost talent sourcing is one of the most effective strategies leaders can employ to help their organizations meet business goals. When recruiting talent, investing in new techniques can make the difference between having the high-potential talent you need, when you need them, and just wishing you did. Walk away with new candidates you would never have found before, a clear understanding of how search engines work, methods for developing your own custom searches, and the clarity and wisdom to discover your own sourcing techniques to keep you on the leading edge.
