Hi friends,
I have explored various websites and engaged with numerous individuals on this specific topic: What are the different channels for recruiting or sourcing candidates besides job portals?
I have received a variety of responses on this matter, but now I aim to consolidate all the information. If you have any ideas, suggestions, or links, please feel free to share.
Please suggest.
Thank you.

Hi Vishal,
References can be sourced from various channels such as employees, personal contacts, advertisements in retail shops and media, consultants, college databases, references from candidates who come for interviews, and resume boxes at important locations.

Hi Vishal,
Gone are the days when we post jobs and wait, praying that someone will apply.
If you want to find the right person for your requirement, one has to analyze the availability of the talent pool and channels. For example, if you are looking for a web designer, a job portal will not give you a good idea of their work. Simply looking at resumes is not sufficient to shortlist candidates. In such cases, exploring platforms like Behance or Dribbble, which display a designer's work, is more relevant. I have found that these tools, along with others, are far more helpful than any job portal. For instance, when I needed to build a team for Drupal for one of my clients, I found groups.drupal.org to have a sufficient Drupal pool for my requirements, which no job portal could match at that time.
Similarly, depending on the position, a recruiter needs to identify where such talent exists and actively participates and then proceed with the search. Engaging with your potential talent pool even before the requirement arises can be beneficial.
There are various forums and tools available for developers, designers, product managers, support professionals, and more.
I hope this information is helpful! Please share your findings with everyone.
Thanks,

Hello Dimple,
I understand from your post that you have in-depth knowledge related to HR. I have a plan to start a HR consultancy based in Chennai in a month. I will be focusing on Automobile, Real Estate, and Manufacturing Companies. I need to develop a candidate database before reaching out to clients. As it's a startup, I cannot afford the hefty fees of portals. Can you suggest how I can proceed?
Your help will be greatly appreciated.
Warm Regards,
