💡 Sourcing Tip #75:

👉 Don’t underestimate the power of local business directories such as Justdial, Sulekha, Kompass, and Yellow Pages.

These platforms list companies across industries, often with key details like contact information, industry classification, and even employee references.

By researching companies within your target sector, you can build a fresh pool of talent that may not be visible on LinkedIn or job portals.

➡️For example, if you’re hiring for a supply chain analyst, you can look at logistics or warehousing firms in these directories, identify relevant organizations, and then map employees from those firms through LinkedIn or social platforms.

✅This method is particularly effective in tier-2 and tier-3 cities where talent is active but less visible online.

✅It also helps you uncover hidden gems who may not be applying for jobs but are open to the right opportunities when approached directly.
