The project aims to bridge the gap between early-career HR professionals and real-world recruiting experience by creating a pilot program for Source Nerds. The primary goal is to identify and engage with potential business partners, such as startups and small agencies, who are in need of recruitment support. By doing so, the project will provide a platform for HR professionals to apply their classroom knowledge in a practical setting. The project involves researching and reaching out to potential partners, understanding their recruitment needs, and designing a pilot program that aligns with these needs. This initiative not only supports Source Nerds’ mission but also creates a valuable learning experience for HR professionals, enhancing their skills and employability.

The project will deliver a comprehensive pilot program framework that includes a list of engaged business partners, a detailed plan for matching HR professionals with these opportunities, and guidelines for program implementation. Additionally, a report summarizing the engagement process and feedback from potential partners will be provided. This ensures a structured pathway for HR professionals to gain hands-on recruiting experience.
