Overall Satisfaction with LinkedIn Talent

LinkedIn Talent allows you purchase into the Basic, Finder, or Pro packages to obtain additional access to talent and the tools to manage recruiting through leveraging LinkedIn's network. The layout and functionality of the service allows for each searching functions and filters to generate the best candidates for your open positions.
  • Filters for search results.
  • Functionality for managing recruiting.
  • Layout for a site that's easy to read and interact with.
  • LinkedIn could improve its ability to aggregate from student groups.
  • Creating business relationships.
  • LinkedIn Talent provides value in linking talent with specific criteria allowing us to match to open positions.
  • LinkedIn Talent filters allow for drilling down into specific qualifications to match qualifications with granularity.
LinkedIn Talent has good filtering similar to SimplyHired and Indeed. I would say the benefit of LinkedIn Talent is having direct aggregate access to LinkedIn profiles, which Indeed and SimplyHired do not cater to as much. If your goal is to scrape LinkedIn profiles, this is the best tool out there to do that.
LinkedIn Talent is well suited for organizations looking for candidates to fill open positions. If the user wants to filter based on location, demographics, skill sets, and past roles this tool is well suited for your needs. It is less appropriate for networking or building business relationships simply because it is designed to provide results with specific talent profiles.
