3 Quick Tips to Leveraging LinkedIn Groups Want to streamline both the time and effort it takes to find targeted talent? I use LindedIn every day as one of my resources to identify top talent. My research and sourcing processes are made more efficient and simple by leveraging LinkedIn Groups. It takes a little time to set up but greatly enhances my search results. Here are 3 quick tips I use to fast track my efforts:
Results? The critical advantage to analyzing, targeting and joining groups is that my search results now include the talent I need to quickly fill my positions. I am able to use the advanced search in both my personal account and my LinkedIn Recruiter account to constrain my search results by a group in which I am a member. This fast-tracks my process so that I am on the phone more quickly or sending out InMails as soon as possible. Additionally, if I do not see strong search results in a targeted function, containing 1st and 2nd degree contacts, I know I need to put more effort into building stronger contacts. |
