LEAD-NURTURING FOR MAXIMIZING SOURCING PRODUCTIVITY & ROI

SHALLY STECKERL // SOURCING INSTITUTE
Don’t throw out your funnel shaped screen savers yet, but forget about this awful funnel analogy for a few minutes and learn something new. And better. You don’t need a funnel – you need a lead nurturing system that leverages every step of the process and actually works. Reach candidates individually, but at scale, in a way they want to engage with you, using options that work FOR THEM. What we’ll cover:

What is The Hopper, and how to automate so it’s less work and well received by candidates. * Lead Nurturing on the Front End. * Identifying various mechanisms to engage your audience and keep them listening. * Not saying “NO” to the talent network, but understanding that the talent network and lead funnel are different. * Why Funnels = Bad. What to do instead, and the tools you need to achieve this.

Erfolgreiches Recruiting? Nur machbar MIT deinen Hiring Managern! Tipps & Tricks für die Zusammenarbeit.

HENRIK ZABOROWSKI //COACH
Jede/r Sourcer/in kennt das: Du hast tagelang (wenn nicht Wochen!) gesucht, passende Spezialisten angesprochen und etliche Absagen kassiert, um jetzt endlich Deinem Fachbereich stolz und voller Freude 1-2 „Kandidaten“ präsentieren zu können. Und was passiert dann? Der Fachbereich braucht 3 Wochen für das Feedback, hat keinen zeitnahen Interviewtermin frei, geht unvorbereitet ins Interview oder klickt mit einem kurzen „ich glaube, der kann das nicht“ auf den Absageknopf. Deine Arbeit von Wochen ist zerstört – und am Ende bekommst Du noch die Schuld, weil Du die Stelle nicht besetzt bekommst. Kennst Du das auch? Dann ist dieser Vortrag für Dich. Ich gebe Dir Tipps, wie Du die Fachbereiche auf Deine Seite bekommst. DennRecruiting ist in Zukunft nicht das Managen von Bewerbern – sondern von Fachbereichen!

We all have our beliefs in what works best. Even in sourcing. Which is quite normal. But these beliefs have considerable impact into our sourcing success, often without us noticing it. In my presentation I want to raise your awareness for this topic, to stimulate an exchange of ideas and to uncover strong, but wrong beliefs and present better ways.
