Hi Abdullah,

I just wanted to share my two major techniques that I mostly used during 4 years of my recruitment experience and how I tried to be fluent and specialist.

I mostly used -

1. Job Portals and 2. Social Media for all major recruitments as they are the most viable and economic sources.

One major problem that you would always encounter is getting numerous resumes that don't match your requirement,so I would suggest always filter your ad's or application receiving system based on multiple criterias, it would refine a lot of irrelevant resumes.

Secondly social media, Linkedin I would say is the bread and butter for most recruiters today, if you have a talent management account there, sourcing is relatively easy.

Also for any profile that I needed to source, I would list out 8 major skills that I would prefer in an candidate, and when I advertise I would specifically ask the candidates to mention their skills in the cover letter and their strength level for each skill. It did help me to a certain extent.

Hope this helps. But seriosuly once you get to the flow of it, after a few years it becomes intuitive :)

There are many options to recruit skilled candidates like ads in local newspapers, social media like Linkedin where job seekers put their profile on site with their respective skills, from their you can easily get deserving candidates and there will be many other options like posting classified on sites.
