Recruiter ADS
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.
PROSThe 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.
CONSSometimes the SW crashes if you have too many open windows at the same time.
Reasons for switching to LinkedIn Recruiter
Because this other platforms did not have a database as deep as LinkedIn. There were a lot of no updated profiles.

I work using LI Recruiter everyday and is a tool that makes my life very easy as a Talent Acquisition Manager
PROSThe 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
CONSThere are too many steps sometimes and the automated recommendations for a project often return not so accurately matching profiles.

Must be able and willing to invest time to search for passive candidates
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.
CONSYou 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.

Essential for Recruitment and Business Development
Many people do not respond and the job ads get many replied but never get appropriate replies.
PROSLinkedIn 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.
CONSI 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.
Reason for choosing LinkedIn Recruiter
It has the best network.

Definitely a must for HR and BD people
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.
PROSLinkedIn 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!
CONSIt's really expensive (it worth it) if you don't belong to a company that could pay for it.

Essential Recruitment Consulting Tool
It's my #1 resourcing tool, I used to to build both personal branding as well as meaningful connections from the perspective of candidates, clients and others industry wide. It's just fantastic.
PROSIt's both building a social presence and connection with candidates whilst also covering off business objectives and hiring. For me this is THE essential tool to have as a recruiter.
CONSAdditional Services are very expensive.

Excellent Platform To Find Genuine Profiles
Similar to a job fair, it enables us to hire from a large linked pool. Its job posting is really helpful and helps to find active candidates.
PROSIt allows me to find and connect with passive candidates that help me close open positions. Its search algorithm and project are excellent. We can integrate it with other tools and publish free or paid requisitions.
CONSThe price is a bit high, and we cannot even view out-of-network profiles. Except this, there is nothing to dislike. It works well.

LinkedIn Recruiter is the best sourcing tool
The amount of candidates you can reach out is tremendous vs the standard job boards. There are a huge pool of quality candidates that can you can't even find elsewhere.
CONSNavigating LinkedIn Recruiter, searching for candidates and creating projects may find it a bit difficult for first time users. Also, there's no way for you to filter candidates based on work permits.

Much better than free job posts
Generally positive. Far more effective than a free LinkedIn job post (unfortunately, I’m sure that’s intentional by LinkedIn)
PROSLinkedIn Recruiter helped us source high-quality applicants for our open role that a free LinkedIn job post absolutely flopped with.
CONSIt’s fairly expensive unless you’re using it very often. Also blocks some candidate info based on +3rd degree connection status, which feels a bit counterintuitive for a recruiting tool.

Worth the price tag
My team and I use LI Recruiter every day- and some days it feels like we'd be lost without it. It makes it easy to do both broad and highly detailed candidate searches, and stay organized with different job orders and messaging.
CONSThere honestly is much I can say in terms of negatives.

Your best option to hire quality talent for your company
We needed to fill 3 senior and 5 junior positions. We had been looking for candidates for at least 3 months. I gave Linkedin recruiter a try and in less than 1 week we had more than 150 applications from professionals matching our ideal candidate. Easy to set up and to modify according to our needs.
PROSLinkedin Recruiter lets you unleash the power of the vast user base of Linkedin. You list your job opening and then wait and see your candidates start to appear. It's easy to set up and tweak the different options, it even gives you the option to create assessment questions to increase the quality of your candidates.
CONSIt's a bit pricier. In the current environment it's understandable since hiring a good fit for your firm is quite difficult, but maybe they can offer a cheaper tier.

Generally, I noticed increases in my performance throughout the period I had it, and it also made it possible for me to expand my network more quickly than I would have otherwise been able to.
PROSThe finest resource for finding the most qualified candidates is LinkedIn Recruiter. Finding qualified applicants is made easier by its job advertisements.
CONSSubscriptions are highly expensive. The value, however, significantly transcends the price.
