Intuition Is Her Secret Weapon

She got da mojo

Sharib_she_got_the_magicUnleashed Sourcer, Maureen Sharib, has something interesting to say about skill and intuition.

From minimal contact with a company via the phone, web or a directory, a researcher can pick up bits of useful information that will aid her work.

The things she notices are often so subtle (small, sketchy, incomplete information) that she is not fully aware of them herself and she cannot readily describe her ideas in detail but only has a feeling about them.

Sharib quotes a friend:

I find that when someone else does the web research for me, I potentially miss many subtle clues before I make the call.

I don't think I could even classify all the different types of information that come from a web hit on a name or a company. It's intuitive.

This feeling of knowing, according to Maureen, is a sign that you are doing your job well.
