    • Identify alternative platforms and communities where tech talent gathers, such as GitHub, and Stack Overflow to name a few.
  • Mastering Platform-Specific Sourcing
    • Learn how to tailor your search strategies on each platform to maximize your reach and find more specialized tech candidates.
    • Explore advanced search tactics specific to each site, such as leveraging developer activity and project contributions to qualify potential candidates.
  • Navigating Through Niche Tech Spaces
    • Learn to approach and interpret tech-specific online forums, coding challenge sites, and project repositories to locate highly qualified, passive candidates.
    • Gain insights into tech-focused subreddits, communities, and discussion boards to track trends and source active, community-engaged talent.

    • Create an ongoing engagement strategy with tech professionals to build a pipeline, from initial outreach through to future roles that may arise.
