Script

In recruitment, sourcing is the process of identifying possible sources to satisfy recruitment needs. In plain English, a source of recruitment is any place that generates qualified job applicants.
If an employer hires college graduates for entry-level jobs, for instance, a university sounds like a probable source.
A job-market resource is any external resource, usually, but not necessarily, web-based, that allows for matching employers and employment candidates. Job-search websites and freelance marketplaces are examples of these resources.
While expecting known or unknown employment vacancies, employers may build their candidate pipelines. The pipeline is a pool of qualified workers interested in learning about job opportunities as they become available at the employing organization.
The pipeline candidacies typically (a) meet or exceed the requirements identified in the estimated job description, (b) have communicated with the employer's recruiters, (c) have expressed favorable views of the employing organization and agreed to receive notifications when relevant job opportunities open up, (d) have screened at some level, (e) stay in contact through personalized emails, newsletters, and/or other forms of communication.
