I won the SourceCon Challenge #1, 2009

I am happy to have won the title of a Grand Master Sourcer. It’s a nice chance to show practical sourcing skills to people who come to my sourcing webinars. Interestingly, most of it was online (on a variety of Social Media sites) – but I had to use the phone at the end!

The Searchologist

I have been a fan of Jim Stroud’s work for a long time now.

His site http://www.therecruiterslounge.com/ is a rich source of information and advice on sourcing and recruiting, perhaps one of the best out there.

Jim has started a page on Facebook and I encourage you all to become his fans:
