Sourcing

Hands-on workshop — two half-days

Upcoming dates:

  • May 5 & 12, 2026
  • September 8 & 15, 2026

Designed for recruiters who want to sharpen their search and sourcing strategies and improve how they engage passive candidates.

Objectives:

  • Search faster and more effectively (method + structure + automation)
  • Expand and prioritize talent pools
  • Increase response rates with better-targeted messages (multichannel outreach + follow-ups)
  • Use AI in a practical, responsible way at every step: intake, search, analysis, messaging, follow-up

Throughout the workshop, AI runs through every step:

  • Clarifying the intake (questions, criteria, signals to verify)
  • Generating and optimizing search queries (keywords, Boolean strings, synonyms, alternative job titles)
  • Speeding up exploration (AI agents, AI browsers, summaries, extracting insights)
  • Structuring follow-up (tags, simple scoring, reminders, personalization)
  • Staying in control: verification, bias, confidentiality, decision traceability
