Webinar: How to Find and Attract Technical Talent

The market for tech candidates is only getting more competitive as time goes on.

Join Master Sourcer Irina Shamaeva on Thursday, March 5th, for a freshly updated look at the top tools and techniques for finding hard-to-identify IT professionals.

Seating is limited; register today at http://sourcingcertification.com/findtechtalent/

Who should attend: Technical Recruiters of all levels and everyone interested in recruiting technical talent.

Why you should attend: If you are searching for technical talent in 2015, you are aware how challenging it is. Technical skills are in demand. Top talented Engineers are not likely to return your calls or respond to InMails on LinkedIn.

Want to take your sourcing skills in IT Recruiting to the next level? Join Irina for a new webinar, covering every major tool and every way to locate technical talent online (including finding potential candidates that others won’t) and ways to attract attention of potential candidates.

Terminology and Roles. To help to navigate through searches and to be prepared to write attractive messages, we’ll discuss how to make sense of the terminology, such as programming languages, “front-end”, “back-end”, “full stack”, “open source”, Hadoop, etc. We’ll go over the specifics of different roles such as Developer, Data Scientist, QA Engineer, Build Engineer, DBA, Network Admin, etc. We’ll cover useful points for communicating with hiring managers regarding informative and appealing job descriptions.

Sourcing Methods. We’ll go over searching and sourcing methods and tips on LinkedIn, Github, Stackoverflow, Google-Plus, angel.co, and combining various sources; building custom search engines and alerts, using possible terminology variations and synonyms. We’ll also briefly go over several people aggregators such as Hiringsolved, Dice Open Web, TalentBin, and Entelo.

Effective Messages. Finally, Irina will provide insights on contacting “techies” and getting their attention and positive response, based on her own communication with Recruiters being a Software Engineer, then Manager, placed by Recruiters in her “previous” life (some years ago).

Included: The slides from the webinar, a complete recording of the webinar, and one month of unlimited support,
