Common Mistakes in the Hiring Process and How Direct Sourcing Solves Them
Human resource recruitment can be described as the lifeblood of any organization, yet most organizations face challenges that affect their functioning, employees’ motivation, and profitability. Employers, while actively trying to secure the best candidates for the jobs in their organizations, come across some basic issues that may actually expand the time, effort, and money spent on the recruitment process and lead to organizational misfit. But as businesses turn to direct sourcing, they have been making the necessary improvements in reaching out to the best solutions to these problems.
Relying Too Much on External Agencies
In the process of selection, one of the biggest mistakes that many managers make is a reliance on third-party recruiters. Despite the usefulness of these agencies in terms of a different focus, over-reliance on them can be costly and decrease an employer’s insight into the hiring process. Outsourcing mostly leads to missing out on building rapport with potential employees by handling all recruitment activities on behalf of the employer.
Direct sourcing enables organizations to regain control of recruitment by engaging with candidates directly. Employer-branded talent pools and other professional networks help companies to cut costs, create strong recruitment relationships, and give candidates complete openness.
Posting Generic Job Descriptions
Having uncertain job descriptions is detrimental since they draw the wrong people. Lack of clarity can result in a mismatch when it comes to interviews or after joining a certain position within an organization.
When it comes to direct sourcing, they found that the companies were able to tailor their communication with the candidates. Specific job descriptions and targeted recruiting help to match a job to a candidate’s qualifications as well as their expectations. This customized approach not only attracts better talent but also improves candidates’ experience.
Overlooking Employer Branding
Most employers merely concentrate on the formalities of staffing without building their employer brand. Inability to attract high-quality candidates results from a poor employer brand, meaning that the prospects are searching for quality corporate culture and career growth.
Recruiting sourcing, in its core concept, is an attempt to promote your employer brand. Recruitment via direct contact also enables organizations to give candidates insights into their corporate and organizational culture, mission, vision, and other incentives to join the organization. By going through LinkedIn, personalized emails, and social networking promotions, valuable impressions can be made on employment seekers.
Neglecting Passive Candidates
It is more common to find that the passive candidates are ignored in conventional hiring processes, given that they are not searching for the job actively but are willing to be considered. This restricts the possibility of recruiting the best candidate, and some people could be very suitable for the job.
Direct sourcing encompasses sourcing of talents and developing a talent database that contains inactive candidates. In the case that such candidates are not currently available, such newsletters, profiles of careers, and invitations to further networking sessions keep such potentials engaged and ready to be drafted in whenever necessary.
Lack of Data-Driven Decisions
Several organizations do not take advantage of the possibility to make use of analytics to improve the solutions used and their recruiting strategies. Managing operations through gut feelings can prove costly since decisions are made based on impulse instead of actual data.
Direct sourcing also makes use of sophisticated tools, including the association of applicant tracking systems and recital of analytics. Measures such as time taken to make a hire, costs incurred per candidate employed, and level of engagement of the candidates enable organizations to improve on their hiring standards.
Failing to Consider Cultural Fit
Many organizations fail to conduct cultural-fit tests in favor of emphasizing the candidate’s relevant technical skills, which leads to employees’ poor performance in the team. All of this can result in lower levels of production and increased levels of employee turnover.
An additional advantage of direct sourcing is that the companies get a chance to engage candidates and determine if they are right for their organization or not through culture and norms. This way there is much better assurance, resulting in better placements.
Overcomplicating the Application Process
Complicated and time-consuming procedures may discourage most people who want to apply from going through with their application. Document types that are too detailed or ask for too much information from persons will lead to many disconnections.
Direct sourcing is therefore easier as the candidates are on boarded through the simpler channels. Easy-to-use portals and functional text used in the applications ensure that the candidates are able to convey their interest in a simple procedure and manner.
The Bottom Line
Some of these mistakes are a waste of time, money, and effort, but they can be prevented with some effective tools. Direct sourcing provides an innovation opportunity for an organization because it shifts the whole recruitment process into an organization’s control. Ranging from enhancing the quality of candidate relationships to technology and data, direct sourcing provides companies with all the necessary instruments to hire more effectively and efficiently.
That way your company will be able to avoid some of the typical hiring mistakes, improve the experience for the candidates, and create the strong workforce needed to propel your business forward. Why wait? The time to begin the change for your recruitment process is now!

yall are about to piss me off by not having any PASSING basic knowledge of the way the u.s. military manipulates its recruits into joining by typing up one of your uninformed, unresearched, unempathetic, individualistic, unbelievably annoying posts about how 100% of the people in the military ended up there because they just Love America So Damn Much! they're extremely mature and informed at time of recruitment, they can totally leave anytime they want, they totally had tons of other avenues in life they could've taken, there was no rush at all to get income as fast as possible, and everyone in the military also totally is part of the combat divisions and personally enjoys being IN the military very much, big believers of violence. everyone in the military is shooting guns all day, that's how that works. they LOVE BLOODSHED. also I love the "amewicans haha" twang to this type of shit because you're actually TOTALLY stealing our Thing, which is turning systemic issues into Individual Issues. Instead of talking about the powers that be, it's so Personal Choice up in here. It's, "well you shouldn't have done it then. I totally wouldn't because I know better." you don't wanna talk about the military industrial complex as a whole, and you don't want to talk about recruiters, you just want to pin the blame on Specific Individual People one-by-one, as if they're responsible for the system that they're being ground up in. someone was in the military? bad person, no matter what. it's easier to believe that, I guess, than to acknowledge that Normal People (with high school educations) are manipulated and incentivized into joining a system that is Bad. at like age 18. but yeah no that 18 year old should have just been smarter lol haha anyway here are some screenshots for no particular reason
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
side note this reply of someone going "umm just get loans and go into a high paying field it's easy XD" as a direct response to someone trying to explain how most americans joining the military are being funneled in that direction out of a need for money.
Tumblr media
and another person who Decided that americans join the military just CLENCHING their teeth thinking of other people, and not thinking completely selfishly about their own selves and their own income/housing/healthcare.

#I had a longer post w more bullshit in it but ukw nobody's even gonna read THIS one. so.#dumb ass cunts seriously LMAO just the individualism of it all....#we're all just selectively forgetting that most people join the military straight out of high school / after failing to kickstart#their lives so they don't know shit yet and they are categorically not educated and don't have money#you NEED money and have been groomed by recruiters ALREADY into believing this is#The Best and Only to make a survivable amount of money without a college education-- bc they can't afford college btw#and they don't want to take on student debt either bc everyone already knows what a big fuckeroo that is#recruiters WILL DO ANYTHING TO GET YOU TO JOIN. they will KEEP CALLING YOU. they'll answer your questions#to make it sound like this is going to be a GREAT life decision. you can get all KINDS of jobs (true)#they love to say the thing about how only about 15% of the military will actually see combat in any way#they love to list all the jobs where you will literally just be working at an office or a pharmacy or in tech etc etc etc#the recruiters are offering housing healthcare steady pay and BONUSES if you sign on for longer.#so you let your guard down because you were so scared of the actual fighting. BECAUSE YOU'RE 18 IN THIS SCENARIO BTW.#you cunts will not meet anyone who hates the military as much as people who are NOW DONE working in the military#you don't know enough when they get you and then either you stay placated by the benefits or you scramble away as fast as possible#the number one military haters are people who know what goes on bc they already did it#source: I LIVE NEXT TO A MILITARY BASE LMAO PEOPLE HATE IT HERE!! they are NORMAL PEOPLE#I need you to get it into your head that the people committing atrocities in war were NORMAL when they joined#and that for every person in the military who's actively shedding blood there's 20 who do PAPERWORK#and they both are being put in the same category by you!! and they are BOTH being controlled by the same system!!#sergle.txt#I hate yall I really do.

You people will write fucking fanfiction about the poor oppressed helpless "kids" and their plight of having to kill people who never did anything to them to get a free college tuition before you will extend an ounce of sympathy to the millions of people killed, charred, maimed, and broken by the US war machine which would not exist if these dumb motherfuckers didn't entirely voluntarily sign up to go kill people for money overseas

thomas is really careful, and tries to be polite and considerate. john doe is wanted for unlicensed wizardry and body snatching. they would not get along <3

hey do you think the Crows control the mage circles in Antiva too, in some way? do you think the heads of Houses get handed the phylacteries of their mage members? do they bring in trainers from the Circles, or send them to classes in the towers, or do they have to wait for a mage to "graduate" before they can recruit them into a House properly? or are mages who are taken by the Crows just quietly ignored until the phylactery needs to be used?
#I saw One source say Antiva has Mage Circles and it's been haunting me ever since#because I just... I don't see that system working as well as it does in Fereldan#I don't see the Crows (who tend to recruit very young) leaving mages as an untapped market for their members#nor do I see them leaving them in a Tower when they could be training to be a Crow at the same time#it feels like maybe the Knife Houses would get stuck trying to snag an older mage and speed running some Crow training#while Talon Houses could just stare down the Tower and make them send tutors#I've been quietly thinking about how Viago might react to Rook de Riva getting stuck in the Fade#and how Antiva having a Circle means they have a phylactery system#and him being like “well okay you're all fucking stupid- we have their blood let's use that to track them??? idiots??”#not taking into account that I have no idea if the tracking magic would even work#or if all the Circles/Towers would use that same system outside Fereldan#and this ignores the funny little Colleges that could be a thing depending on your Inq choices lol#I'm just a Mage Origins girly so I see “circle” and “mage” and go oh!! blood fuckery!!!#the storage of said phylacteries could be either with the Houses (again Talons likely) or in the Tower(s) either works I'm just Thinking#like what if.... black market Mage Circle... just for the Crows.... it could be worse than the usual Circles.... I'm Just Thinking...#sleepy and thinking about this while editing chapter 2 instead of dunking myself into bed#just imagine Viago during the year Rook de Riva is away staring down a little vial of their blood#knowing they're just a little ritual and a few months away from being home again#I like the angst!!! I like how torturous that could be at times!!!#DAV Posting

Why Should Your Business Adopt Direct Sourcing for Talent Acquisition?
Recruiting the right staff in today’s world can be as challenging as trying to find a needle in the haystack. Employers are always under pressure to recruit qualified employees as early as possible and as inexpensively as possible. The regular modes of recruiting may be effective, but they have the drawbacks of being a time-bound, costly process and involving little contact with candidates. Introducing direct sourcing, a strategy that is disrupting the hiring process. So how does your business benefit from direct sourcing? Let’s explore. 
A Proactive Approach to Recruitment
Direct sourcing is an inversion of the ordinary pattern where the employer waits to be supplied with candidates. Recruitment involves proactively searching for candidates rather than waiting for applicants to apply through a job opening advertisement. It’s like having your recruitment factory where talent is nurtured and groomed to meet your needs at the right time. This method not only facilitates the process of selection in a company but also guarantees that one is in a position to work with professional employees who meet the company's requirements.
Cost Efficiency and Flexibility
Recruitment would always be costly, especially when working with third-party agencies or recruiting agents. Direct sourcing reduces these costs since the company uses in-house skills and the right tools to manage the process. Regardless of whether you may have open positions for contract-based, part-time, or full-time staffing solutions, it covers all perspectives. This can culminate in huge savings without compromising the quality of the employees that are being hired.
Building Relationships for the Long Term
This is not just a process of recruiting and sourcing candidates directly to fill the current open positions, but it’s more of a process of relationship building. When interacting with potential candidates for recruitment, you build trust and create a strong bond, which is important in such procedures. If a candidate is not ready to come into your organization at the initial time of application, it is most likely that the candidate will apply for a job in your company the next time. In the long run, the approach strengthens the organization’s talent bench for future recruitment, whenever such a need arises.
Harnessing Technology for Smarter Hiring
It has many benefits; especially in today’s age of advanced technology, it is more efficient than ever. Using AI in talent acquisition enables the identification of potential candidates, the evaluation of their skills, and the estimation of how appropriate they would be for the roles at hand. These tools are beneficial in that they assist in shortening the cycle for recruitment and, at the same time, increase accuracy.
Conclusion
Direct sourcing as an approach to talent acquisition is not just popular, but it’s the right, sustainable practice. It helps organizations perform better in the hiring task and retake control of recruitment while minimizing expenses and time spent on searching for applicants. For those who plan on maintaining their competitive position in the evolving marketplace, it is high time to tap more into direct sourcing.

Can we hear more about this kitchen clown who serves food based on vibes? I maybe sort of remember seeing that was your self insert but i might also be making that up
Oh, Cisine? She isn't a self-insert per se, but in appearance she is based off me in college, when I very first came up with her haha. I had a lot less Gender and a lot more hair going on back then!
Tumblr media
She was always intended to be 1. huge (because I'm huge) and 2. a cook, which is why her name is Ramson Cisine (gordON RAMSey+C(u)isine). Her lusus was called Seahorsemom but instead of being a flying seahorse like Eridan had, she was a huge hippocampus ala Gamzee's goatdad. She's big into aura-reading and Vibes and shit, which are only patchily accepted as a Real Church Thing, but also she's mostly using it to decide what food to give people or to make personal decisions about her interpersonal interactions, so nobody gives her shit about it.
She's in the complicated sociological position of like...she accrues less esteem in the church because she doesn't really do frontline combat missions, and barely counts as a subjugglator at this point, but also she's several age cadres above Gamzee and rules the kitchen of the Dark Carnival with an iron fist. Could you technically throw your weight around and exert social pressure to order her around? Yes. Would you then never eat a good meal again??? Yes.

Seeing how badly sothis/byleth get treated by intsys makes me feel really badly for them and their fans. I thought self inserts were meant to fawn over the player but instead I see the company retcon them, replace, and low but high key shitting on them. I don’t think I would ever see this with characters like Link or Persona or the little pokemon kids so I’m not sure what intsys is trying to tell us about sothis/byleth if this what we see done to them, “they’re just a mindless beast”
As I realised thanks to talking and exchanging with people around and after years of discourse...
Fodlan suffers from "self-insert worship" but in a batman 5D chess gambit, from doylist wise, "player worship". Earl Grey must sell, thus the character who always loves the player and was made, designed, as the player's love-interest (Billy's), Supreme Leader's worship takes the cake.
As already pointed out, Fodlan games try their damnest to erase or not give any figs about Flamey, the "War" is just a background buzz and units are on snow class, and if something is to blamed for the destruction and deaths caused by the war it's deflected on the mole people, "Church/Kingdom BaD because they don't offer their heads on a platter" or the world and its systum - and the worst offender, on "crusts", aka, blood from a genocided race that mingled with "humanity" and is used as the scapegoat for everything wrong in the world. The "alien blood" is to blame and the real responsible for why Miklan tried to seduce people who didn't want to be seduced, or why classicism exist.
I exaggerate a bit, Heroes tried to poke holes at this smokescreen and it ended up with Supreme Leader running away from Lissa (the most persuasive character in the franchise?) because, hey, in her verse, no one told her 1+1 = 2, or no one she couldn't introduce to Aymr I guess.
(of course we have the lol!supports from the besf, but any opposition is resolved with a teaspoon in the following supports, there's no disagreement nothing, it's always "and John realised off-screen Supreme Leader was right and he was wrong", ultimate kuddos to the Ferdie support though, the biggest joke - but again, FE16's supports kind of suck).
With that in mind, Billy was always intended to be the SS Lord, and to opposed Supreme Leader (that's the gravitas and main steak served when you order Fodlan : "u will feel bad bcs u turn against ur precious student sad uwus").
And yet, not to prevent the irl players from, idk, buying Supreme Leader merch or routes or being engaged, even if it's through foolish fan-faction wars, Billy takes a backseat as Nopes fully embrace the core of the Fodlan games : Hresvelg Tea.
Player must feel bad for siding against Supreme Leader - so Supreme Leader must somehow be right, and make people at least some of them surface-level wonder if the ends justify the means, right?
Billy, when they are their character and not a self insert UI, thus must bow down to this rule - everything must be thrown in a blender so Supreme Leader's steak will look appetising, even if you have to destroy the tastiest risotto ever done in the process.
Rhea cannot have spotlight else we will be in a Lissa situation again - so if she has any, it'll play in the red herring already debunked 10 chapters ago "Church BaD Rhea BaD maybe she should have ruled over the world instead of letting HuMaNiTy rule itself". In Nopes? Conveniently, Uncle pops up so Rhea's goal changes, and she will prefer to save the world instead of putting the person who wants her out of Fodlan by tomorrow morning because her ears are pointy to the sword.
Dimitri? "BaD" as long as he wants to kill Supreme Leader, but when he'll become the Saviour King, he'll try to spare her and regret having to kill her - fuck to Baldo, Waldi, and the "creatures masquerading as humans" I guess - in FE16 ; in Nopes, he'll also join the "Church BaD" gang, thus isn't "really" opposing Supreme Leader, right?
Clout became a thing.
And Billy? Well, Barney's existence is their nemesis, so to prop Barney they should shit on Billy, right?
But to shit on them to this point - throwing them with the other Nabateans in Nopes in the "dgaf" trashcan but also, confirming the worst theories from FE16 (Jerry's not the best dad ever) hurts. Billy was, this time, sacrificed to make place for the new self-insert, but also, imho, to showcase how the damn space lizards are evil (and not only because we're playing an agarthan game/route, but also because it checks a certain someone's agenda).
So while I think it's less something of "the devs hate Billy" it's more like "the devs want you to buy Hresvelg Tea".
