Manpower sourcing is the first step in overseas recruitment: identifying and assembling the right pool of candidates to match the employer’s job order. At Iqbal Manpower Consultants (BEOE License No. 0658/RWP), we provide skilled, semi-skilled and unskilled Pakistani workers based on your verified demand letter upon which every successful placement is made.
What is manpower sourcing?
Manpower sourcing is the process of finding and gathering qualified candidates for an employer’s vacancies before screening and selection begins. For overseas hiring, this means mapping the needs of the foreign employer in Pakistan’s labor pool and shortlisting the right number, right trades, as targeted, ready for the next stage.
Sourcing is where recruitment campaigns are won or lost. Right sourcing means fewer candidates rejected at interview, faster placement, and workers who stay on the job. That’s why we see it as a disciplined process, not a rush to churn out CVs.
