Solicit directives from hiring authority
There is enormous pressure to fill the requisitions of your hiring managers not only fast but with the best talent. You can save yourself a tremendous amount of recruiting time with targeting directives from your hiring authorities. All companies have an established reputation, and most hiring managers who've been in their profession for a number of years have opinions about certain companies. If your hiring manager doesn't respect a company, chances are they won't interview or hire someone who's been working there.
Knowing that before you begin to recruit can save you a tremendous amount of time. On the other side of the equation, are the companies that are the most respected by your hiring manager. These companies are often found on the lists of best companies to work for, and when you recruit candidates from one of these companies, your hiring manager's interest will definitely be piqued. I've actually had hiring managers provide me with specific directives about competitors they wanted me to target.Source: https://www.linkedin.com/learning/align-recruiting-with-job-requirements/solicit-directives-from-hiring-authority
