Overall Satisfaction with LinkedIn Talent
Mainly recruiters use this platform to increase the options of candidates. We are typically using multiple platforms to source candidates from, and LinkedIn Talent is more used for the higher level positions we staff for and more direct placement positions. It is being used throughout the entire organization, but recruiters are the main users of it -- across all states. It allows us access to those higher level candidates with strong backgrounds and more education and experience.
- High-level candidates matched to my criteria.
- Shows a great profile of the candidate - on other sites you have a general resume. No picture, no other information about them that you can really tell about the candidate.
- Using Inmail to get a hold of candidates.
- I think the matching feature could use a little more work. I typically find candidates who aren't qualified, or who are overqualified.
- Personally, when I see "Inmail," I don't always think its very personal. I think a feature where it feels more personal and not that you're getting spammed by companies looking for candidates would be nice.
- Sometimes, there is a lot of clicking around to get appts, tasks made. I would like it more streamlined, one click, easier to track.
- It has helped us get more permanent placings, which increases our branches' revenue, and my paycheck.
- Our clients are happier with our candidates and the talent they provide to their company.
- We are able to build our pipeline of candidates.
We use Bullhorn, Indeed, ZipRecruiter, and Career Builder. I like Linked In for my higher level candidates and I like being able to see the person's picture, seeing how involved they are in their current position. I use LinkedIn for staffing for direct placement positions and permanent positions. I usually utilize others when I'm looking for lower, entry-level candidates because those are the platforms they use.
