Overall Satisfaction with Linkedin Recruiter

Being able to identify viable talent is paramount in the recruiting and HR industry. Linked In has been a vital asset to me currently and in several previous positions. At the last 3 organizations with which I worked, the majority of the staff were super users of LinkedIn and Recruiter Lite.
  • LinkedIn has always had a project function, but recently has expanded its functionality to make it more user friendly and comprehensive.
  • Top research tool where you can identify companies, employees and people by function or job title.
  • LinkedIn makes it easy to build search lists by location and industry.
  • Strong profile platform that can be used as a type of resume where an individual can share as much or as little information as appropriate.
  • We have enjoyed its add on functionality with a direct link from our applicant tracking system directly to a particular candidate profile. The issue I have seen is that half of the time it doesn't find the correct profile. It is there but requires digging to find it.
  • It is expensive to have Recruiter for individual operators or small companies.
  • Besides being used as a search tool, it is also a great to strengthen your brand and recognizability. My profile is attached to both my separate company linked in profile and both are linked to my company website. People can see who we are and what services we offer at a click.
  • You have unlimited opportunities to post articles and such to raise your brand.
  • Profiles of both people and companies are easy to update and keep fresh by the administrator or individual.

It is relatively easy to build a search in an particular area as long as you know the titles or keywords specific to your industry. I probably am able to get 85-90% of the people who may be possibilities in a particular location, discipline, and job.
