Impeccable integrity is paramount in my relationships with individuals/companies. Sourcer for Fortune 500 Companies. Served as Senior Management Recruiter with world's largest retailer and Fortune 1 company. Graduate of top 20 business school and 16 years of sourcing and recruiting experience. Deep internet, networking, & phone sourcing. Strong network amongst sourcers/recruiters. I’m ethical, honest, and authentic. My sourcing techniques identify top talent by encompassing both internet sourcing and telephone cold-calling. I've spent years in full life cycle developing candidate pipelines asserting creative candidate sourcing, & dealing directly with intense hiring managers. So, my sourcing initiatives vary from life cycle recruiting, corporate recruiting, and for the most recent 8 years, direct sourcing. Sourced candidates are difficult to bring to the table despite deep internet research but it's my passion; Cost per hire are cheaper when I'm on the prowl seeking using long-honed recruiting techniques, talent sourcing, technical recruiting, to fill positions/job postings. Sure, sourcing plans can be easy, utilizing easy methods like employee referrals for requisitions but having been in full life-cycle recruiting, it necessitates strong eyes and tenured intuition to deep-dive source & get them on the cold phone full of intrigue.
