Sourcing Tip – Day 69

💻 Use Reddit to Discover Hidden Talent Pools

Reddit is more than memes — it’s full of niche communities where professionals share insights, projects, and expertise.

Subreddits like r/datascience, r/UXDesign, r/devops, or even city-specific career groups often attract skilled contributors.

🔍 How to use it:

✅Search relevant subreddits by profession, skill, or location.

✅Look for users who share case studies, answer technical questions, or post projects — these often indicate real expertise.

✅Respectfully reach out via LinkedIn (not Reddit DMs, which can seem intrusive).

✅Use Reddit discussions to learn trends and jargon to refine your sourcing keywords.

💡 Pro tip: Reddit is a goldmine for passive talent who may not even be on LinkedIn, giving you a competitive sourcing edge.
