ERA Webinar with Balazs Paroczay
Tuesday 2nd June 2020 – 1pm-2pm BST
ERA Webinar with Balazs Paroczay – Global Sourcing Strategist
“Your inner sourcing animal – and six other core research methods”
While the sourcing and recruiting industry is loudly screaming hosanna to every bit of new technology – there is too little being said about the science and art of research. It’s certainly great to have access to all these great tools, however, it is still humans that need to craft, initiate and control a search.
The most intelligent piece of technology is still our brain so let’s spend some time to hardwire our very own applications.
In this session Balazs shares those Seven Search Methods that he’s learnt from and sharpened together with various Sourcing Masters over the last 15 years.
He shares how he discovered his inner sourcing animal. He is a wolf. What is YOUR inner sourcing animal?

Bio
I took my first sourcing certification test in the late ’90s. At that time, I attended what was called a “computer school” and took a timed sourcing test on a computer with a dial-up connection to the internet.
I was the first external “Internet Recruiter,” as they were called at the time, hired by Microsoft in 2000. I have had the opportunity to work for Google, Amazon, Apple, Yahoo!, Starbucks, ADP, a few start-ups, and other great companies as a full-time employee and contractor during my career.
I have trained sourcing professionals and recruiters at various companies, and I am known as a sourcing expert, but I have also operated as a full-cycle recruiter. I have spoken at numerous conferences, including the HIREconf, Talent42, and I have been one of the highest-rated presenters at SourceCon. I was an invited speaker at the SourceCon All-Stars conference in March of 2016 in Orlando, FL. I have also led webinars on behalf of the ERE, CareerArc, Zapinfo, Hiretual, and others.
Additionally, I was a board member of the S7+ (Sourcing Seven) organization in Seattle, WA, for several years. I currently lead the Sun City Sourcing Society in the greater Phoenix, AZ area.
Most recently, I have held the role of Senior Sourcer, Talent Attraction, and Leadership at Indeed, and I have recently joined Salesforce as an Executive Sourcer.
