🎯 #SourcingTip – Day 47
Use Podcast Guest Lists to Discover Hidden Talent
Many industry experts and niche professionals appear as guests on podcasts to share their expertise. These guests often have unique skills, strong industry knowledge, and a passion for their field—qualities that recruiters value.

How to do it:

1. Search on Google: “podcast guest list” + your industry/skill (e.g., “podcast guest list” + data science or “interviewed on” + cyber security).


2. Visit podcast websites or platforms like Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or Podchaser, and check their episode descriptions for guest names.


3. Look up those guests on LinkedIn to evaluate their profiles and fit.


4. Engage thoughtfully—mention the episode you heard and highlight what you liked about their insights.



Example:
If you’re sourcing supply chain professionals, search for “supply chain podcast guest list” and find names like senior logistics managers, operations strategists, or procurement leaders who may not actively be on job boards.
