The future of recruitment is <strong>huge<\/strong>. The future of recruitment is <strong>global<\/strong>\u2026. Are you ready?\n\nAfter two challenging years of employment insecurity, employees are ready to make their move. Although business confidence is improving and money is starting to flow through the economy once again, employees are feeling the strain and burnout of the last few years.\n\nWe\u2019re now seeing a unique storm of motivators causing employee movement. We know that many employees are being forced to return to the office and they\u2019re feeling like their loyalty throughout the pandemic isn\u2019t being recognised.\n\nAs a result, they\u2019re looking for a change of scenery and asking themselves; is there something better for me out there?\n\nIn this article, we\u2019re not talking about the \u2018why\u2019 when it comes to employee movement. Instead, we\u2019re looking at how you can leverage the situation to have your <strong>best recruitment year ever<\/strong>.\n<h2 id=\"what-is-talent-sourcing\">What is talent sourcing?<\/h2>\nTalent sourcing is the process of finding and attracting exceptional and qualified candidates for your open roles. It requires hiring managers and HR to be actively pursuing and seeking candidates rather than just waiting for potential applicants to come to us.\n\nWhen HR uses a strong talent sourcing strategy, they take a more active role in finding the kind of quality candidates that they really want. They don\u2019t just post<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/ideal-job-ad-template\/\"> job ads<\/a> on job boards and hope for the best.\n\nThey work on sourcing candidates for the role and help the potential candidate realise that, even if they weren\u2019t actively searching for a new role, that they should make a move.<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/create-account-hiring-essentials\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"Create a free Hiring Essentials account\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-12938 size-large\" height=\"714\" src=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2022\/06\/Hiring-Essentails-CTA-SEA-1024x714.png\" width=\"1024\" srcset=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/06\/Hiring-Essentails-CTA-SEA-1024x714.png 1024w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/06\/Hiring-Essentails-CTA-SEA-300x209.png 300w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/06\/Hiring-Essentails-CTA-SEA-768x536.png 768w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/06\/Hiring-Essentails-CTA-SEA-440x307.png 440w, https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/4\/2022\/06\/Hiring-Essentails-CTA-SEA.png 1376w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a>\n<h2 id=\"how-can-businesses-create-a-talent-sourcing-strategy\">How can businesses create a talent sourcing strategy?<\/h2>\nA classic talent sourcing process would include things like uploading job ads to different job boards or cold contacting (contacting someone without an introduction) people that you believe would be a good fit for the role.\n\nBut, such a competitive job market demands a little bit more.\n\nHR and <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/hiring-interview-checklists\/\">hiring managers<\/a> need to be more strategic when they are sourcing candidates moving into 2023.\n\nTo capture the attention of the best candidates, you need to think outside the box.\n\n<em><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/should-you-hire-an-hr-manager\/\">When should you hire an HR manager?<\/a><\/strong><\/em>\n<h2 id=\"13-creative-ways-to-source-top-talent-and-broaden-your-talent-pool\">13 creative ways to source top talent and broaden your talent pool<\/h2>\n<h3 id=\"1-network-meaningfully\">1. Network meaningfully<\/h3>\nNetworking can sometimes have a bad reputation, but it doesn\u2019t have to feel forced. When you\u2019re networking for new talent, you\u2019re in a great spot because you\u2019re not pursuing opportunities, you\u2019re sharing opportunities for current and future positions with potential candidates.\n\nAttend local events, meetups, job fairs, and participate in online events. When it comes to having conversations, be authentic. Remember, it may be professional, but it\u2019s important to be friendly and have fun. This will reflect well on yourself and the business.\n\nArm yourself with conversation starters that showcase your personality; light-hearted anecdotes will serve you far better than a rehearsed elevator pitch. Avoid overusing buzzwords and technical jargon, ask meaningful questions and listen.\n\nAfter the event, always remember to follow up and make a note of your interactions with the person. You\u2019ve just made a new contact that could be interested in future positions.\n<h3 id=\"2-leverage-your-employees\">2. Leverage your employees<\/h3>\nWhen it comes to a talent acquisition strategy, an <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/employee-referral-program\/\">employee referral program<\/a> is one of the most powerful tools in your arsenal. Asking your staff to become advocates of your business can help you tap into quality talent within their extensive professional networks, and help you boost your appeal as an employer.\n\nThrough incentivised employee referral programs, businesses can leverage their own teams\u2019 networks and turn team members into advocates for working at the business. It\u2019s a great, personal way to source the best talent that hiring managers otherwise wouldn\u2019t have access to.\n\nAccording to the job site CareerBuilder, 82% of employers rated employee referrals above all other sources for generating the best <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/recruitment-costs\/\">return on investment for recruitment<\/a>. Employees hired through referrals also come into the candidate pipeline 55% faster than those sourced through career sites.\n\nAre you looking to set up an employee referral program for the first time? Our<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/employee-referral-outreach-template\/\"> employee referral outreach template<\/a>\u00a0can help you get started.\n<h3 id=\"3-approach-passive-candidates\">3. Approach passive candidates<\/h3>\nA <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/what-are-passive-candidates\/\">passive candidate<\/a> can be defined as a person who is not actively seeking a new job. However, a hiring or HR manager identifies that this person could be the right fit for an open role at another company.\n\nPassive candidates often have a wealth of experience or knowledge in niche areas or have highly sought-after skills.\n\nHighly qualified talent would have had their inboxes overflowing recently due to the Great Resignation, so cold contact is not always the best way to approach prospective candidates. Try seeking a \u2018warm introduction\u2019 instead.\n\nA \u2018warm introduction\u2019 is where you find someone in your network who knows your ideal candidate. Reach out to this mutual person to see if they could facilitate an introduction.\n\nThis creates a better pathway for the candidate and fosters a sense of trust before you\u2019ve even let them know about the role.\n\nIf you have zero mutual contacts, cold contacting is still worth a try. Use our <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/passive-candidate-email-template\/\">passive candidate outreach template<\/a> for the best chance of candidate engagement.\n<h3 id=\"4-keep-candidates-warm\">4. Keep candidates \u2018warm\u2019<\/h3>\nSpeaking of warm &#8211; have you ever had two fantastic final candidates for a role, but one of them won the role by a small margin? The other candidate could become a \u2018warm\u2019 candidate, and be part of your talent pipeline.\n\nIn order to do this, HR needs to be strategic when they let the candidate know they haven\u2019t been successful in getting the role. When you\u2019re calling the person to let them know they haven\u2019t been successful, you might say;\n\n<em>\u2018While you haven\u2019t been successful for this particular role, the whole hiring team were really impressed with your knowledge of [specific skill] and we believe that you would be a great fit for our team. We have some open positions coming up in the near future, are you happy for me to reach back out soon with the details?\u201d<\/em>\n\nIf the person agrees to keep in touch, you now have a warm candidate in your talent pipeline. Make sure that you contact them as soon as anything relevant comes up.\n\n<em><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/job-description-template\/\">Template for creating job descriptions<\/a><\/strong><\/em>\n<h3 id=\"5-advertise-in-unlikely-places\">5.

Find PR opportunities for your leaders<\/h3>\nPR shouldn\u2019t just apply to promoting your product or service, it can also help you elevate the profile of your company leaders. It\u2019s a key part of recruitment marketing that can often be forgotten about.\n\nThere are lots of leadership and business publications, media platforms and podcasts that are always on the lookout for knowledgeable guests. You might even be able to nab a spot on a\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/events\/\">webinar series<\/a> or panel for a similar business in your industry (if they\u2019re a non-competitor).\n\nGetting your leaders\u2019 faces out there really boosts your business but also your employer profile. Passive and active candidates can begin to put a face and personality to your company, aligning their own values and career goals.\n<h3 id=\"7-create-a-unique-employee-value-proposition-evp\">7. Create a unique employee value proposition (EVP)<\/h3>\nThe talent sourcing game has changed drastically over recent years. Compensation is not the only part of the decision-making for qualified candidates in the market.\n\nThis is where creating an EVP can help with the talent acquisition strategy.\n\nWhat is it that makes working at your business a unique experience for your employees? When you go beyond employment and a salary; what else makes working for your business special?\n\nIts perks, benefits and programs. It\u2019s business values, vibe and structure. All of these things make up your EVP.\n\nYour EVP should be unique to your business. If it isn\u2019t, 2023 is the time to bolster it. What additional rewards, benefits or programs could you introduce that make your business a place that potential candidates just can\u2019t say no to?\n\n91爆料 can help <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/employee-value-proposition-evp\/\">boost your EVP<\/a> and give you solid foundations to build on with your own flair.

Design creative expressions of your EVP<\/h3>\nSometimes when you\u2019re trying to attract new talent, you have to think like a marketer to get in front of the eyeballs of the right talent. Get some ideas from your marketing team about <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/recruitment-marketing-strategies\/\">how to make some creative content<\/a> around your EVP and team culture.\n\nMembers of your team could write a blog or article about what it\u2019s like to work at your business or their employee experience around a certain theme.

Develop employer branding<\/h3>\nIt\u2019s a harsh truth, but if you don\u2019t shout about your EVP, all of your efforts putting it together go to waste when attracting new candidates. This is where <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/employer-branding\/\">employer branding<\/a> comes in.\n\nEmployer branding is the voice and image of your business as a workplace. It captures the vibe of your employee experience and tells the world who you are as an employer and your reputation. It\u2019s everything when it comes to promoting your EVP.\n\nTo develop your employer brand, ask yourself questions like;\n<ul>\n<li>Are our potential candidates active on LinkedIn? Are they looking at what others in their network are sharing?<\/li>\n<li>Do they have Facebook and Instagram accounts? Are they often exposed to advertising on these channels?<\/li>\n<li>Are there any influencers that they follow? Who do they look up to?<\/li>\n<li>Where would they look for job opportunities? Would it be LinkedIn, Seek, Indeed, a company\u2019s own social media channels or a newspaper?<\/li>\n<li>What is most important to our candidates?

Encourage working flexibility (and actually mean it!)<\/h3>\nLet\u2019s face it. No one loves the idea of being chained to their desk in the office. It\u2019s all well and good to say you\u2019re a flexible workplace, but it\u2019s another thing to actually mean it. You need to live and breathe it. This is where it\u2019s important to lead by example.\n\nDescribe how your workplace supports flexible working by providing examples in job descriptions. Whether it\u2019s leaving early for a doctor\u2019s appointment, ducking out for a gym session or taking the kids to a soccer game, empowering your team to choose where and when they work is an attractive thought and can instantly expand your talent pool.\n\nLooking for more information on how to be a flexible workplace?

Use an Applicant Tracking System (ATS)<\/h3>\nThis might not be the most creative suggestion on this list, but it\u2019s absolutely essential to the <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/recruitment-process-guide\/\">recruitment process<\/a> and is often overlooked.\n\nWhat\u2019s your standard recruitment process at the moment from the candidate\u2019s point of view? How long does it take job seekers to get from applying for the role to being offered the position?\n\nIt\u2019s not unusual for a quality candidate to have to go through a screening call, 3-4 rounds of interviews and complete a task as part of their recruitment process.\n\nDuring that time, there\u2019s lots of administration happening on the other side, as internal stakeholders swap feedback and manually move candidates through the funnel.\n\nThere\u2019s a common recruitment statistic to remember here; the best talent is off the market within 10 days. A robust talent pipeline is crucial in capturing target candidates.\n\nFrom your candidate&#8217;s point of view, try to keep the entire talent pipeline to a minimum, don\u2019t make them jump through any hoops.\n\nAn <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/products\/applicant-tracking-system\/\">applicant tracking system<\/a> (ATS) can help dramatically reduce admin on the backend. Easily move your candidates through the pipeline, from application to interviews to onboarding.\n\nOur <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/solutions\/recruitment-software\/\">ATS recruiting software<\/a> provides a singular source of truth for all stakeholder feedback and allows you to easily track candidate progress from your 91爆料 account.\n<h3 id=\"13-allow-employees-to-be-100-remote\">13. Allow employees to be 100% remote<\/h3>\nWhen you think of expanding your talent pool, you know that changes will need to occur to accommodate candidates. Gone are the days of being bound by borders or being chained to your desk.\n\nBy allowing your team to be 100% remote, you&#8217;ll be able to engage with talent all across the globe &#8211; no matter their location.\n\nThis instantly opens up your talent pool and puts you ahead of the competition. If you want to access the best talent the world has to offer, you should consider the remote first approach to work.\n\nWant to learn more? We&#8217;ve created this <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/resources\/the-remote-first-workplace-playbook\/\">comprehensive remote working playbook<\/a> that will take you through everything you need to know.\n<h2 id=\"use-an-employer-of-record-to-expand-your-talent-pool-globally\">Use an Employer of Record to expand your talent pool globally<\/h2>\nWhat if we told you there was an easy way to hire the best talent from anywhere in the world?\n\nThat you don&#8217;t have to deal with setting up a separate entity in a different country to access that talent?\n\nAnd that everything will be set up compliantly in line with local government laws?\n\n*<strong><em>Drumroll<\/em><\/strong>&#8230;* It&#8217;s all possible with a <a href=\"https:\/\/employmenthero.com\/my\/blog\/peo-guide\/\">professional employer organisation<\/a> (PEO).
