Searching by location in the UK on LinkedIn

Recently I was asked if I knew how to do a UK location-based search on LinkedIn and realised I didn’t because I didn’t know what the full list of UK LinkedIn locations was. This meant that I couldn’t determine if I had all those locations in any defined region and I couldn’t find a list of ALL UK locations anywhere.

Examining LinkedIn, it seems to have major locations like the town of Stevenage and allocates a code to these i.e. in-gb-4630-Stevenage with minor locations within…

How to Find People in an Area - Location Sourcing with Google, Twitter and LinkedIn

My webinar this is all about Location based Candidate Sourcing. Very often my sourcing demonstrations find candidates in big cities with big populations but what happens when you want candidates in a remote area with perhaps only a few thousand people in the population.

The Holy Grail of Internet Sourcing

I’ll start off by saying I need to see a doctor, it is now 04:00 in the UK and I have been awake since 02:30 thinking about sourcing candidates and what methods and tools yield great results.  I know I am addicted to sourcing!

 

I first became addicted to internet sourcing probably in 2007 when I first got sucked into the underworld and began to hear about Shally Steckerl, Job Machine and AIRS Training and certificates. 

 

What I was reading sounded like the…

Twitter Bio Search through Search Engines – What’s the best way?

For long time now – I have been finding new ways to search on twitter. In fact, I also tried contacting Twitter to find one reason why they do not have a Bio Search facility inside. However, their internal search facility is so weak that it is faster to search a twitter page using search engines than internally.

When it comes to searching candidates via Google – LinkedIn tops the chart as it is designed in such a way where you can search public profiles very easily. Other networking…
