Boost Your Recruitment Results with Fast, Advanced Candidate Sourcing

Candidate sourcing is a proactive approach to identifying, attracting, and engaging potential candidates before they apply for a job. This search technique involves various channels such as job boards, social media platforms, and professional networks to find potential talent who may not be actively job-hunting but could be interested to learn about job openings.

Candidate sourcing can be carried out in several ways. Traditional methods include posting on job boards, leveraging employee referral programs, and attending events. Modern techniques involve using social media, applicant tracking systems, and engaging candidate sourcing tools and software to automate the operation. Outsourcing your efforts to an experienced team like Pareto can also be an effective strategy, allowing you to focus on your core business while we handle the rest.

Candidates can be sourced from a variety of platforms. Job boards and career sites are common places where job seekers look for opportunities. Social media platforms like LinkedIn, Facebook, and Twitter are also used for sourcing candidates. Professional networks and events, online communities like GitHub for tech professionals, and even college alum networks can also be effective sourcing channels. With Pareto, we will source candidates across multiple social media platforms and sites based on your specific needs and the role’s requirements.

Pareto makes your recruitment process more efficient by taking care of the repetitive and laborious tasks that are nonetheless critical to success. From researching potential applicants to gathering their contact information, Pareto can help you save time and resources. In addition, Pareto is known for being diligent and responsive, ensuring that your recruitment needs are addressed promptly.

Pareto employs various tools and tactics to provide managers with a comprehensive, easy-to-read list of potential candidates who could be a great fit for their company’s open roles. One key strategy is candidate sourcing, which involves actively identifying individuals who may not be actively seeking new employment opportunities but possess the qualifications and experience needed for your roles. While Pareto doesn’t directly help with employer branding, it recognizes the importance of this aspect in attracting top talent. As such, it’s beneficial for managers to effectively articulate their company’s values, story, and growth opportunities to position their organization as an attractive workplace. Moreover, Pareto underscores the importance of personalization in candidate outreach. By customizing your communication to resonate with each candidate’s specific interests and qualifications, a positive experience is created from the onset, thereby increasing the likelihood of them accepting an offer to join your company. In addition to these services, Pareto can assist in researching and providing information on best practices in recruiting and hiring.

By using Pareto, recruiting managers can get a comprehensive list of qualified people to reach out to active and passive candidates, expanding their talent pool. Our tools and workflows are particularly effective in identifying individuals with specific skills that align with open roles in your company. Furthermore, our research can help recruiters learn more about their candidates, ensuring they are fully qualified for the positions they’re being considered for. This comprehensive data can lead to more effective hiring decisions and a more substantial pool of employees. In short, our candidate sourcing tools and workflows are not only about meeting your immediate hiring needs; they’re about investing in your company's future by ensuring you have access to a diverse, skilled, and highly-qualified pool of talent.

Pareto understands the immense value that passive candidates can bring to an organization. Although not actively looking for a new role, these candidates might be perfect for your pool. Pareto’s candidate sourcing methods make recruiting these passive candidates easier. We provide comprehensive candidate contact information as part of our research, equipping recruiters with the necessary details to initiate meaningful conversations. While the outreach function falls to the recruiters, having the right information at your fingertips can make this approach much more effective. This information allows recruiters to target their approach, ensuring they reach out to the right people with the right roles.

Traditional recruiting methods typically involve attracting potential candidates to apply for publicly open positions, often by posting jobs on job boards, attending job-fair events, or conducting interviews with applicants who have applied through the company’s website. On the other hand, Pareto’s approach emphasizes proactive sourcing, where we actively search for and identify potential candidates for current or future open positions. This strategy enables you to find candidates that fit your requirements, saving you time and resources for recruitment. Unlike the traditional recruitment method, this approach lets you bypass the time-consuming screening of unsuitable applicants and focus only on those who meet your criteria. By proactively sourcing candidates, Pareto gives you control over the skills and experience you’re targeting, thereby helping you build a stellar crew that launches your business forward.

Pareto uses LinkedIn as a key platform to identify top talent and initiate outreach, tailoring its approach based on the information available on a candidate’s LinkedIn profile. This information could include their background, experiences, specific interests, and qualifications, which aids in creating a positive and personalized experience from the outset. While Pareto does not use an applicant tracking system (ATS), the information it gathers can be integrated into an ATS. An ATS automates the hiring procedure, making it an essential component of many companies’ recruitment workflows. It assists in managing and tracking a candidate through the hiring journey. The insights gathered by Pareto can be used to enrich the data within the ATS, making it even more effective for managing recruitment efforts.

Pareto can serve as a valuable partner in the recruitment process, saving recruiters the time and effort of sourcing and searching for potential employees across various platforms. For instance, social media is a rich source of potential candidates, including those who might not be actively seeking new roles but have the qualifications and skills that a business needs. Pareto’s expert team can conduct this search technique on platforms like LinkedIn, identifying potential employees and building a database of top candidates for future positions. While Pareto does not manage outreach to these candidates, it provides recruiters with the necessary information to initiate contact and foster relationships, making it easier for recruiters to engage with potential employees when new roles become available. This proactive approach can give companies a competitive edge in hiring, ensuring they have a pool of qualified candidates ready. In addition, Pareto stays on top of the latest trends and strategies in recruitment, leveraging its knowledge to find and engage with the best candidates.

Pareto researches and sources potential candidates who not only have the required skills and background but also align with your company’s brand and culture. We do this by understanding your employer value proposition (EVP) and using this information to identify individuals who would be a good fit. While Pareto does not directly develop or communicate your employer brand, it plays a crucial role in ensuring that the people you hire are likely to resonate with your brand values and contribute positively to your company culture. This is achieved through our strategic candidate sourcing approach that focuses not only on qualifications but also on cultural fit and alignment with your organization’s brand.
