Where to Look for Qualified Job Candidates

Job posting sites and job search engines


Large job boards, such as Monster.com and CareerBuilder.com, provide searchable databases to assist candidates in filtering job descriptions and company advertisements. For even more complete results, job search engines combine job board listings with firm website listings. For more targeted results, consider posting your job description on specialist forums and search engines that specialize in your field.


Social media.


LinkedIn is the most popular online business networking platform for networking and searching for quality prospects. Facebook and Twitter may reveal information on a candidate's personal life and cultural preferences.


Referrals from friends and coworkers


A personal reference might help you avoid much of the initial verification and screening required with unknown prospects.


Recruiters and staffing firms


Recruiters, often known as headhunters, may save you time by prescreening prospects and perhaps identifying highly qualified people who are not actively searching for work since they already have one. However, for your first employee, headhunter expenses may not be worth it.
