What do you like best about LinkedIn Recruiter?

It allows us to find suitable candidates from anywhere in the world, plus we can choose from a series of filters, to connect with people with the characteristics we need, such as years of experience, training, etc. It is a very intuitive platform with a large database, besides being reliable, so all candidates selected so far meet the profile and our expectations. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LinkedIn Recruiter?

Its cost could be higher than its competitors, but I particularly think it is worth it, since the candidates are reliable and suitable for the jobs we have needed. I would also like the program to inform me when there are available candidates with the profiles we are looking for, so we would save a lot of time in the search. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LinkedIn Recruiter solving and how is that benefiting you?

We find this tool very useful for what we are needing, which is to get skilled employees for some areas of our company. What I like about this platform is that we can find the ideal candidate, in the ideal place, because it allows us to segment and filter the search according to the candidate's location.

What do you like best about LinkedIn Recruiter?

LinkedIn is where the fish are, so that's where it makes sense to fish. LinkedIn is the platform that most professionals use. There's nothing revolutionary about their interface or filters. The value is the access to candidates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LinkedIn Recruiter?

As the only professional social network in town, LinkedIn knows it has you over a barrel and takes full advantage.

The "business" side of the site is very difficult to navigate and everything seems to be designed to force you into a conversation with your account manager who will try to upsell you on Inmails, posted jobs, or some other add-on service. You can't even access invoices or review billing without talking to a sales rep. It is as though they have deliberately made it difficult to do business with them without sitting through a time-share style sales pitch.

For what you pay, Recruiter Lite (month-to-month) is not particularly useful. This is designed to drive you to their more expensive products and solutions that contain the filters you actually need but at six times the prices. And the more expensive solutions are only available on yearlong contracts that auto-renew without giving you any warning so watch your contract dates VERY CAREFULLY.

If you are a small agency, a solo recruiter, or someone for whom cash management is important, you should give a lot of thought to whether or not cheaper tools might be a better solution. LinkedIn Recruiter is my business' single largest expense. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LinkedIn Recruiter:

Be VERY CAREFUL before committing to a LinkedIn Recruiter contract. It is VERY expensive and LinkedIn is very inflexible about the terms of their contracts, autorenewals, etc. Test and exhaust as many other options as possible before getting a LinkedIn Recruiter account. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is LinkedIn Recruiter solving and how is that benefiting you?

LinkedIn is where the candidates are and LinkedIn Recruiter is the only way to reach them. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
