Hello Talent. Sourcing Tool - LinkedIn Recruiter Search / Cross-Reference. Google Chrome Extension – LinkedIn Recruiter Chrome Extension One of the most redundant tasks sourcers and recruiters experience each day is cross-referencing candidates in LinkedIn Recruiter that they’ve found from another source or via an X-Ray search of LinkedIn.
The problem is that once we’ve identify a potential candidate, we have to open a new tab, copy the name and paste OR type it into LinkedIn Recruiter and execute another search. This is not time well spent. So, to improve the speed and efficiency of our sourcing efforts, I created a Search/Cross-Reference Tool that I wanted to share with those who have LinkedIn Recruiter.Installation and usage instructions: With your mouse/trackpad, drag the links below to your favorite browsers Bookmarks/Favorites toolbar.
To use, highlight the potential candidates first and last name listed on the web page where you identified them. Creating a Custom Search Engine with Google. Do you X-ray the same sites over and over?

What is a Custom Search Engine (CSE)? How To: Identify Passive Candidates on Meetup.com. With approximately 11 million members and more than 105k local groups, Meetup.com can be an incredibly valuable source for identifying talent and, like Github, offers numerous ways to access site content.
Unfortunately, Meetup’s site search function is very limited where sourcers and recruiters are concerned. From X-Raying using zip code radius to searching groups and group members hosted on custom domains, the following will help you find everything you need or want on Meetup. Meetup Groups (Meetup.com) Groups: [ site:meetup.com <keyterms> “meetups are scheduled” ] Groups + Location (State): [ site:meetup.com <keyterms> intitle:CA “meetups are scheduled” ] Groups + Location (City): [ site:meetup.com <keyterms> intitle:”san francisco” “meetups are scheduled” ]
14 Tips on How to Use Twitter for Social Recruiting. Twitter’s been around for nearly 8 years and has always been popular in recruiting circles, but there are still plenty of recruiters who don’t use Twitter to its full potential or are simply new to using Twitter for recruiting.
For example, just the other day I noticed in one of my Hootsuite streams a recruiter with 3 followers tweet about a job. I found this interesting so I decided to tell the world what I had seen via Twitter and LinkedIn to see what kind of a response it would generate. I got a surprising number of responses in defense of the unnamed recruiter, even though there was no attack to defend against, which I found very interesting. Many of the responses were “Hey, you gotta start somewhere,” which of course is true. However, I would argue posting jobs without a decent number of followers from your target talent pool is like buying a lottery ticket – it is a hope based action/strategy. #1 Why Twitter Can be an Effective Recruiting Channel Lots of people?

Fast forward 5 years, and that little legion has ballooned into an army of over 300 million active monthly users (12 million more than Twitter and about 230 million more than fellow image sharing app, Pinterest!)
