There is no golden egg or “best place” to find good candidates. In order to find the best candidates, you have to diversify your recruiting presence. Many good candidates are on job boards, many are referrals, many are at career fairs and many are at local events, but no one place has them all. Some sources may work for one organization but not for another. In today’s market, you have to be willing to take a risk on something new because your competition may take that risk and you must figure out how to be more competitive than your competition.
