LinkedIn Talent is a versatile platform that caters to a wide range of recruiting needs.

With job postings on LinkedIn, they are able to attract both active and passive candidates who may not come across job postings on other platforms. The platform's easy-to-use search filters enable users to find candidates based on criteria such as current company, education, job tenure, and openness to new opportunities.

We use LinkedIn talent primarily to resource potential hires. It's been great because we can have folks who are usually doing non-value add activities fill their excess time with sourcing. It's very easy to use and even more simple to fit into your operation. Our response rate is generally about 20% and we're looking to hire many of our folks who we sourced through LinkedIn Talent.
  • Small funnel - you can get very targeted
  • Separates your professional network from your prospecting network
  • Ability to add many people to projects and automate messages
  • I would love to see the ability to differentiate whether you are looking for undergrad or graduate students
It's great for sourcing candidates. Especially when you have a specific focus on hard facts you want. (School, Time in career, location etc.)

It can improve by creating profiles about people and seeing who fits the profiles for jobs. It would be great to see a way to get suggestions for jobs you are trying to fill.

  • Reduced the number of candidates we have to source
  • Higher quality of candidates
N/A - we previously source from indeed and other job boards. We have begun piloting WayuUp and RippleMatch. They are good passive systems, but we also like having an active system.
No
We are a large scale user, so work as more of a partnership to help develop product and feature requests
The support is great, and it gives access to the largest most complete job site out there.
No
We were having trouble creating funnels at the beginning of implementation. They sent an expert out to our site! Great support!

We are a nationwide staffing and recruiting firm that uses LinkedIn Talent daily. We especially use it to find top talent in areas where we specialize in recruiting. Everyone in our organization utilizes this. Only problem is sometimes we find people who haven't been on in ages that are a great fit and its hard to contact them.
  • Search strings work great. Boolean searching is easy and a good fit for LinkedIn to utilize.
  • Gives a nice summary at the top of their current and past employment. Helpful in case what they are currently doing doesn't match our needs.
  • Being able to upload resumes directly to the main page or send via message is also something that is really appreciated in my line of work.
  • I would really like to know when someone logged in last. I understand that usually in a search they are at the end of the search but dates would help.
  • Would like to have an option that shows if someone is actively seeking employment, just browsing opportunities, or not in the market.
Appropriate Scenario: I'm looking for a Psychiatric Nurse Practitioner in Montana. I use my Boolean string to narrow down a location and exact job titles. This is extremely helpful.
Less Appropriate: People who connect with everyone and then [send] out blasts to a bunch of people for something no one really cares about. For Instance, some of these "pyramid schemes".

  • Positive: I personally have found many individuals who I wouldn't have found elsewhere for positions that are rather difficult to fill. More qualified individuals as well.
Honestly, so far, LinkedIn is the best. BeyondCore just isn't known enough by job seekers and almost every time I do a search, I find very few candidates. Only thing I do like about BeyondCore is they show the last date of activity for that job seeker.
Yes
As a company we do pay for premium support and have multiple reps come out to do demos on new and upgraded items.
I'm giving this a 6 only because in my 1 year at my current position we have had 3 different reps. The first was unresponsive and passive when attempting to help us. When she came out to do a demo on a new feature launch it was scattered and all over the place. The person we have now is great and is super helpful when ever we need him.
Yes
Once in a blue moon, items get stuck or search strings stop working and we always report it and it's usually fixed by end of business day.
One time we were all shut out of our Linkedin accounts due to messaging activity. It was showing way more than was actually sent and was just a software glitch. We sent a report in and called our rep immediately. He fixed the issue and gained us all access to our Recruiter or Talent accounts.
