What do you like best about LinkedIn Recruiter?

This platform gives complete package for sourcing/recruiting right talent for open roles in the company. It boosts engagement with prospective talent. It lets you create/share Projects with internal hiring team for better alignment, allows job posting & create Reports that can be utilized for analytical purposes to streamline hiring process. Also its Talent Insights feature is a great way to research for talent, geography, market trends etc. for a targeted approach. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LinkedIn Recruiter?

I have been utilizing the platform heavily for active/passive Recruiting purposes & there isn't much that I dislike about it. However, it limits the number of reach outs via Inmail to people if overall response rate is little lower. In that case, a Recruiter has to wait for a while to improve upon the response rate before they can further send Inmails. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

It is helping find right talent, streamlining hiring workflows so it has been automating the Recruiting process.

It is beneficial to connect & network with active & passive talent in the market utilizing targeted & various sourcing actions in the platform. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

(Original )Information
What do you like best about LinkedIn Recruiter?

The best thing about this tool is the reach that you have available to you as a recruiter. Everyone under the sun uses LinkedIn and with the Recruiter software, you can reach up to third degree connections that you wouldn't have the chance to message if you weren't using this tool. It was a tool that I used every single day as a recruiter. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about LinkedIn Recruiter?

The only trouble that I had with Recruiter was that it had a tendency to get overwhelemed and bug out. Frequently, I would have to shut down my browser and restart it in the middle of a search if I had a lot of strings/filters applied. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

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

I genuinely can not think of another way to do recruiting after using this program. It makes the process insanely simple by allowing you to add relevant profiles quickly to projects and bulk message qualified candidates with personalized automations all in a seperate program than your personal LinkedIn, allowing you to keep everything recruitment-related organized in one centralized location.

I like that anyone can navigate LinkedIn Recruiter easily - you can categorize and easily find the right good fit candidate for your search.

Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
