As the adage goes, "to catch a thief you must think like a thief." The same applies to finding resumes in databases.
While thinking about your needs is definitely the right place to begin a resume sourcing campaign, you should translate those needs into "resume speak" to achieve optimal results. Effective resume research in a database requires you to use your command of the English language, your empathetic abilities, your comprehension of industries and professions, and your understanding of the psychology of your target candidate. In short, you need to use every ounce of your experience as a recruiter.
