The asterik is a “wildcard” on Google that matches one or more words in a phrase.

Google fills in the blank.

Look what I found when I searched the phrase "in loss prevention."
Find candidates. Find sources of referral.

This sourcing strategy is cool because I can find people under the radar who might not have a big online presence. Plus, it can be automated.

Try a search like this to uncover emails of passive candidates in the news.
I highly suggest connecting with them via LinkedIn. Its like “caller ID” and helps people decide if they want to talk to you.

I suspect that there is a periodical for
every industry.
If you can find a periodical that interests you, mine it for leads. (Most magazines have a website these days.)

Site searching magazine sites for pronouns will (typically) uncover interviews, news and citations of people in the industry.

Example result > The Journal of Applied Instructional Design
Example results > Project Management Magazine | Projects At Work
Example results > Workers’ Comp Executive | Workers’ Comp Advisor Magazine
Although “magazine” worked best for most of my searches, I suggest trying additional
keywords as well. For example…
• Quarterly • Journal • Report • Blog
Even if you do not find a magazine devoted to your topic, you will find resources that have featured your topic at one time or another.

Don’t forget about the invisible web! That’s the info not indexed by general search engines.

Kate Winslet was vacationing in Sir Richard Branson’s luxury caribbean home when it was struck by lightning. The home caught on fire and Winslet carried Branson’s 90 year old mother to safety. As news of her heroism swept the news, the London Fire Brigade offered Kate Winslet professional firefighter training. The offer made the news, appearing on channels such as the BBC and Vogue.

One of highlights of the 2014 Grammy’s was Pharrell William’s unconventionally sartorial hat. As the world tweeted about Pharrell’s off taste in headgear, Arby’s dropped the one tweet to rule them all (check out the retweets on this thing!). Pharrell put the hat up on eBay to raise funds for charity, Arby’s purchased the hat for a heart warming $44,100.”
