Summary
Step 1: Get JD.
Step 2: Intake Call.
Step 3: Plug buzzwords into sourcing platform.
Step 4: Look at every profile and decide who to message.
Step 5: Reach out and mention how they have a great profile and you saw your buzzwords on it, so you know they’re a fit for the job.
Step 6: Zofran for the nausea, cat videos for the boredom, and therapy to discuss why you keep doing this job the same boring way every time.
Step 7: This Matchr webinar!
Let’s talk about search strategy. Here’s what we’ll talk about:
- Start Narrow, then expand (and why this is the right way to source*)
- How to go beyond the buzzwords
- Some light web scraping & Boolean building
- Reduce your Zofran intake, time on TikTok, and spend on therapy**
* yes, you can build a talent map by starting with a wider net, and I’m happy to have an open discussion about why I think this is the wrong way to do this
** still important – all recruiters need a good therapist IMO.
