My immersion into the world of recruiting and HR started in sourcing, and the ability to find people and information on the internet has continued to be one of the most valuable professional skills I possess, even if I’m years removed from actually filling reqs. The thing about it is, it’s never been actually all that hard – even before the profusion of social and online profiles in that transition period between the first and second incarnations of the Internet (back when Google still wasn’t evil and you could Ask Jeeves anything).
