SESSION DESCRIPTION
The world is shrinking. To stay competitive, recruiters must be able to recruit globally as well as they do domestically, but few "standard" techniques apply successfully overseas. Learn to engage people in Latin American countries where the Internet may not be widely used, and where traditional approaches are not as effective. Explore different approaches used to solve the unique problems presented by Internet recruiting, sourcing, and research for Latin Americans:
- Apply modern sourcing techniques to Latin American recruitment
- Leverage Top Level Domains, ISPs and Country Codes
- Find "curriculum vitaes" only from Latin American countries
- Get only local results from search engines
- Quickly translate pages written in Spanish and Portuguese for free
- Avoid cross-cultural sensitivity issues and learn how local customs and idiosyncrasies greatly impact your strategy
- Assess your current global staffing structure and develop recruiting strategies for each of the Latin American regions
