What do you like best about LinkedIn Recruiter?

LinkedIn's network integration with its native function is so valuable. Rather than relying on users to create an account, I can just go to any company page and look for companies (and vice-versa with going to individual user profiles for potential hires) given its mature network. The tags and job compatibility are perfect fits for our needs. Additionally, the platform is clean and gives us a good glimpse into the candidates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LinkedIn Recruiter?

I wish there was a better screening feature on LinkedIn for companies that aren't necessarily reliable (false advertising in opportunities). I also think that Premium is expensive, despite how useful the features can be. It's costly getting premium for each member of the firm. In terms of direction/development, I feel like it's becoming less professional and more social -- which may lead to a loss of initial purpose. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Recommendations to others considering LinkedIn Recruiter:

It's a good platform with the correct backing that is required for a Talent search function. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It's allowed me to both identify opportunities for my firm and myself. I like how LinkedIn allows for quick application screening and providing of some insights that I normally wouldn't see on a typical resume (e.g. what the person "likes", their recommendations etc). I have been able to also test out both Quick Apply and application apply features, which was a good pilot to do. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LinkedIn Recruiter?

The interface is intuitive. Many times the applicants are selected from the product. The applicants also provided positive feedback. LinkedIn Recruiter Lite is very robust for the cost. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LinkedIn Recruiter?

I do not like much that most of the time they end up recruiting an applicant who are on the premium mode first. I’ve only seen other staff used it. They should also include the student option to fill out a profile as a student. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

From the point of view of the company, it helps to recruit the best qualified staff, it allows to validate its profile, there is a great index of response on the part of the aspirants. It is the most solid work bag we have seen in our company. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you like best about LinkedIn Recruiter?

Lots of available profiles and information on candidates. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LinkedIn Recruiter?

- LinkedIn actually penalizes users for not renewing subscription every month. I spent many hours developing saved searches, but wanted to suspend the subscription for a couple of months until we needed to recruit again. After cancelling and then trying to renew, i Learned that all of the searches would be lost (EVEN BEFORE THE SUBSCRIPTION WAS OVER!). I contacted support and asked for the searches to be saved if i renewed, and they refused.

This is the sort of poor policy/customer service that makes users hate large platforms such as LinkedIn.

- The search results are not reliable and candidate quality/match is not consistent. This causes significant wasted time having to sort through qualified candidates vs. non-qualified.

- Communication tools are clunky and unreliable. Sometimes I can correspond using my email and sometimes cannot. Very frustrating.

Recommendations to others considering LinkedIn Recruiter:

LinkedIn presents their recruiting tools as a major problem solver, but despite all of my time and efforts, i was very disappointed with the tool itself and results.

We've also posted job openings, and rec'd very few qualified candidates, and was actually double charged for duplicate job postings that we never ordered or authorized. Had to waste time requesting refunds, etc. Major waste of money as well. Spent approximately $4k and rec'd maybe 10 qualified candidates over a 5 month period.

Also be aware of the their renewal policies which penalize users for not renewing each month. I wasted significant time and effort on searches and it was all lost due to their policies. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
