For over 20 years, my work centered on recruiting and developing internal recruiters in process-driven manufacturing environments. My partners wanted to hire better and smarter and I earned a reputation for recognizing strong talent and helping others trust their instincts and process. I was doing work I was good at and surrounded by teams that valued my perspective. From the outside, everything looked solid and secure. However, over time, I saw patterns emerge that I couldn’t ignore. I watched agency recruiters present candidates in as little as four days, even when those candidates weren’t stronger than the ones internal teams could source. The real difference wasn’t talent—it was speed, structure, and readiness. Internal recruiters didn’t lack skill; they lacked a clear system to move quickly without sacrificing quality. And I had a proven method that could establish that system. I realized a real training gap existed when agency recruiters were presenting candidates within four days, even though those candidates were often less skilled than the ones we sourced ourselves. The difference wasn’t talent; it was speed and readiness. Their recruiters knew how to package candidates quickly and confidently, while many internal teams struggled to do the same. That contrast made it clear that a structured training program was needed to help recruiters present high-quality, interview-ready candidates with both speed and accuracy. That gap made it clear that internal teams needed a better system — one that could match agency speed without sacrificing quality. That's exactly why I launched Candidate Sourcing & Consulting and created The WIN Recruiting Pathway. This simple, logical, repeatable system works across every position level. It transforms recruiter skill sets, boosts their confidence, and dramatically improves time‑to‑hire. Seeing this impact firsthand made it clear: I needed to share this step‑by‑step approach with recruiters everywhere who are ready to elevate how they source, screen, and present talent. Today, Candidate Sourcing & Consulting is delivering real value for lean recruiting teams that are pushed to meet heavy demands. With a simple plan for every search, recruiters gain the structure they need to move quickly without sacrificing quality. Internal customers get timely support, and companies save money by reducing reliance on agency assistance. It creates a future where recruiters feel empowered, teams perform more efficiently, and hiring becomes a smoother, more strategic process for everyone involved.
