Why Pin is the
best choice
Colleen Riccinto Cyber Talent Search
"Old-school recruiters will tell you the best sourcing tool is your brain, and I agree. What I love about Pin is that it takes the critical thinking your brain already does and puts it on steroids. I can target specific company types and industries in my search and let the software handle the kind of strategic thinking I’d normally have to do on my own, something I simply can’t do the same way in LinkedIn Recruiter."
