Shownotes

If you’re still relying on job boards to hire your next great employee, this episode is your wake-up call. I break down why “post and pray” is no longer an effective hiring strategy especially if you’re trying to land top-tier talent.

Instead, you’ll learn the three proactive methods recruiting teams use every day to find the right people (and how you can do it yourself as a founder, hiring manager, or business owner). No agency fees required.

What You’ll Learn:

  • Why job boards should be used for validation, not as your primary hiring strategy
  • How to use LinkedIn like a recruiter, even if you’re not one
  • The hidden goldmine in your customer base, superfans, and existing network
  • Smart ways to use Facebook groups, community content, and micro-influencers to identify potential hires
  • What sourcing tools like PIN, Fetcher, and GEM can do and how they can work like a junior recruiter on autopilot
  • Jackie’s real-world examples from med spas, product brands, and tech startups using these tactics successfully
