My overall experience as a Recruiter has been amazing, this tools allow me to fullfill my hiring goals and look for difficult roles in the market.

The possibility to search for any role/profile in the world and contact them. Also the way to use filters and booleans to narrow the search.

Sometimes the SW crashes if you have too many open windows at the same time.

I work using LI Recruiter everyday and is a tool that makes my life very easy as a Talent Acquisition Manager

The features like saving templates, search by Ideal Candidates are by far the most handy functions on LI recruiter. I use them extensively and creating projects and saving them is a great way to build a pipeline of potential candidates

There are too many steps sometimes and the automated recommendations for a project often return not so accurately matching profiles.

If you are able to invest the money for and time to use the full Recruiter license, it does enable you to connect with passive candidates that you would otherwise not be likely to reach. The analytics are also good.

You need to purchase a full Recruiter license in order to contact passive candidates outside of your 3rd degree connections and the high cost of that license may make it prohibitive for many organizations. The Recruiter Lite option only enables contacting candidates who are at least a 3rd degree connection, which the recruiter is unlikely to have in many cases. With either Recruiter option, the recruiter must be able and willing to invest considerable time searching for candidates.

Many people do not respond and the job ads get many replied but never get appropriate replies.

LinkedIn Recruiter is very effective for finding people and contacting them. Its a great way to understand the people in a company and who to contact for various reasons. LinkedIn was very easy to set up and also integrated well with other software. The mobile app has greatly improved as well.

I think that they should offer more Inmails as a reasonable rate. Each seat gets 100 inmails per month shared across the whole team, but we would like to easily increase this or even purchase more that if necessary.

linkedin recruiter allows me to do any kind of search no matter the role, location or even the grade of connection. I'm able to contact people who is not in my network and consider them for any of the vacancies that I'm managing.

LinkedIn recruiter is easy to use, very intuitive and let you do different things in terms of candidate management. You can source people, save their profiles in different projects, make templates and contact them and also set up appointments thanks to the integration you can do with your calendar!

It's really expensive (it worth it) if you don't belong to a company that could pay for it.
