However, in practice, there is still some uncertainty about the relationship between recruitment and sourcing in relation to the talent pipeline.
Recruitment Synergy
Sourcing is the proactive search and approach of top candidates for current or future vacancies within companies and organisations. Nowadays, this is an essential complement to the recruitment process. It creates synergy between the two specialists; the Recruiter and the Sourcer. Through this collaboration, a talent pipeline can be build and the best candidate for an open position can be selected in a very brief period of time.
It is insufficient to attract the right talent by only putting the vacancy online. Progressive companies and organisations see the need to take action in order to attract the right talent on the long term. Often with the help of a specialized recruitment agency.
Technological Development
Modern recruiting neither guarantees attracting the right talent. Nowadays, you have to take more action. New opportunities thanks to new technological developments, which should not be ignored, arise within the recruitment process, also in the area of sourcing. The Sourcer can cleverly exploits these technological developments and other online network tools and fully focuses on filling the talent pipeline.
