How to Take This Course Preview 02:12

I highly recommend you take this course in two parts, as this method seems to take into account the learning styles of the vast majority of students.

First, binge watch the course from start to finish. Then, come back and watch each lesson in isolation, implementing actions points as you go.

Files, Folders, Pen and Paper Preview 06:11

Before launching forward into your recruiting activities, make sure you have everything in order. The first thing you need to do is to ensure that all of your data is backed up. You can use a cloud storage service like Dropbox or Google Drive, or use an ATS (Applicant Tracking System) that backs your data up for you.

Educate Yourself on Your Vertical Preview 08:19

When sourcing for a role you have not encountered before, make sure you do a little research before you speak with the Hiring Manager. Look for similar roles on job boards and record common terminology from them. These words will very likely form the basis of your Boolean search later in the course. Make sure to take notes!

Create a Talent Pipeline: Get top candidates to come to you 21 lectures

What is a Talent Pipeline (and why do this now)? Preview 04:44

A talent pipeline is a pool of candidates who are qualified to assume open positions that have been newly created or vacated through retirement or promotion. You should do this now as it generally only needs to be set up once, but continues to send you a flow of candidates into the future.

There are online pipeline methods, such as resume alerts and various groups, and offline methods, such as university engagement and candidate referral programs.

We discuss the importance of responsiveness, and also what to do with your talent pool once you have them to keep them engaged going into the future.

Talent Pipeline Analysis Preview 10:44

In this lesson, we take a deeper dive into creating a talent pool. We show you how to create a plan of action for right now, and also actions you can take over the next 12 months.

We investigate sources such as Meetup.com, Startup weekends, networking events and more.

What's our Unique Selling Point? Preview 04:36

In this lesson, we define what it is about our company's products and/or services that make customers want to buy from us.

This may seem to be unrelated to recruitment on the surface of it, but if we can define what makes our company unique, we can convey this to job candidates in the job ad and also on our LinkedIn Company page.

It shows candidates that our company is viable and growing, and therefore a safe bet to consider when deciding whether or not to spend part of their career with us.

Calls to Action! Preview 02:19

This lesson is straight our of the marketing playbook. Using calls to action drastically increases the application rate of candidates. Simply put, it involves telling candidates to apply, rather than assuming they will do so without prompting. It works.

We'll show you how to word this perfectly to get the best response.

Be Responsive! Preview 03:29

I cannot over emphasize how important it is to be responsive to candidates online. If they comment, you respond. It builds your brand and help earns trust.

LinkedIn: Create an Engaging Profile that will Make Candidates Come to You Preview 09:09

In this lesson, I will show you the recruiter how to build an engaging LinkedIn profile. After all , candidates will look you up, not just the other way around.

First make sure you turn off your network notifications so that your boss doesn't think you are looking for a new job! Then get a a professional picture in there - no one wants to see your pets on LinkedIn. Next, create a good headline with a call-to-action. Also, remember to link to your LinkedIn company page.

LinkedIn: Create an Appealing Company Page (shop front) for your Organization Preview 06:27

Your LinkedIn Company page, like your own website, is your new shop front. Make it visual as appropriate - images, video, logo.

In your company description, use your Company USPs (remember that from above?) to create your main content, and remember your call-to-action. we show you good and bad examples in this lesson.

LinkedIn: Joining Relevant Groups Preview 05:00

Joining relevant LinkedIn groups can give you a really strong pipleine of engaged talent. I show you how to research appropriate groups and what to do once you have joined.

Facebook: Company Page and Groups Preview 07:04

Depending on your industry, Facebook may be more important than LinkedIn. with some minor (and not so minor) differences, we show you how to create your Facebook company page and engage with appropriate groups.
