Build your Candidate Pipeline

Source: eGrabber Newsletters

Finding the right candidate, for the right position, at the right time is the key to making you a successful recruiter. One of the ways to ensure that is by building a strong candidate pipeline. There are two strategies to achieve this - passive and active recruiting.

Most recruiters rely heavily on active strategies for building their candidate pipeline. This is done only when the need for manpower arises - job postings, campus visits, career fairs, etc.

A passive strategy on the other hand, is proactive. You look for prospective candidates even when there is no immediate need. You can passively hunt for candidates through

-	careers section on your company website
-	profile page on social networking sites
-	posting articles / blogs, and more...

By following both these methods to build your candidate pipeline, you can ensure that you get the right hires at the right time.
