How Do Recruiters Reduce Sourcing Time and Spend?

Blog Content

We know through our research and working with recruiters for 20+ years that too much time is spent sourcing. Almost a 3rd of the average recruiter’s time is spent sourcing, and profits are often unnecessarily spent on salaries and systems – but they are not necessarily being 3rd more competitive.

This recruitment podcast will give you some key takeaways to help improve focus, function, and ROI from sourcing.

Effective Sourcing Strategies for Busy Recruiters

This Sourcing Strategies podcast is a “must-listen” for:

Recruiters who want to spend less time sourcing so that they get as much phone, face, and screening / selling time as possible.
Recruitment Leaders who want to make their recruitment businesses more competitive and profitable.
Marketing / Operations teams who want to help their recruiters focus their time and attention on candidate and client management, and thus improve sales.
Oh! And if you need to cut spend and improve speed.

In this episode of the Recruitment Leaders’ Podcast, I’m joined by Alex from Broadbean, who knows all about sourcing and recruitment technology.
