What strategy would you recommend for a company to use in finding talented SB+/U2 talent?
I have a customer who's been searching for someone who can handle the day-to-day support needs of a growing organization, which means that there's often a lot of multitasking and the need to turn-and-burn through projects with as minimal of an effort as possible. While many of the applicants to date have good skill sets, the company hasn't found that person with the magic combination of abilities and attitude that they desire. And in this market, the number of resumes so far has been dismally small.
Recruiters are largely out of the question because the talent this company has gotten though recruiters has been little more than extra expensive with no commensurate increase in quality of the candidates.
So how would you recommend this company find the person they need?
