Sourcing Channel Plan
A sourcing channel plan maps which recruitment channels to use for each role and why, so you target candidates where they actually are.
"I keep posting jobs and getting the wrong applicants — there must be a smarter way to choose where I look."
A sourcing channel plan assigns the best channels (referrals, job boards, agencies, outreach, events, social media) to each open role based on role characteristics, candidate behavior, sourcing cost, and time-to-fill goals. It explains the rationale so stakeholders agree and resources are used efficiently.
