LinkedIn Recruiter Lite is a subscription-based service offered by LinkedIn that provides enhanced features and tools for recruiters to find, connect with, and recruit talent on the LinkedIn platform. It is designed to assist recruiters in identifying and engaging with potential candidates more effectively.
LinkedIn Recruiter Lite offers several key features, including:
1. Advanced search capabilities: Recruiters can use advanced filters to search for candidates based on various criteria such as job title, location, industry, skills, and more. This helps them narrow down their search and find candidates who match their specific requirements.
2. InMail messages: InMail is a messaging feature that allows recruiters to directly reach out to LinkedIn members who are not in their network. With Recruiter Lite, recruiters get a certain number of InMail credits each month to send personalized messages to potential candidates.
3. Profile organization and collaboration: The service provides recruiters with the ability to save and organize candidate profiles into folders, making it easier to manage and keep track of potential candidates. Recruiters can also collaborate with their team members by sharing notes and feedback on candidate profiles.
4. Viewing full profiles: LinkedIn Recruiter Lite allows recruiters to view complete profiles of all LinkedIn members, even those outside their network. This includes access to detailed information such as work history, education, skills, recommendations, and connections.
5. Candidate recommendations: The platform provides recruiters with intelligent candidate recommendations based on their search criteria and past interactions. This feature helps recruiters discover potential candidates they may have missed and expand their talent pool.
It’s important to note that LinkedIn Recruiter Lite is a scaled-down version of LinkedIn Recruiter, which is a more comprehensive and advanced recruiting tool. While Recruiter Lite offers valuable features for many recruiters, larger organizations or those with more extensive hiring needs may opt for the full LinkedIn Recruiter subscription.
With Recruiter Lite, you can:
- Search the LinkedIn network, up to your 3rd-degree connections, with more than 20 filters like Skills and Years of Experience, and refine your search with smart suggestions.
- Contact candidates directly with 30 InMail messages per month.
- Discover great, new candidates with daily recommendations and search alerts based on your open roles.
- Post one free job at a time (any additional job needs to be promoted or the first free job closed to post another one for free). Recruiter Lite subscribers can post as many promoted jobs as they wish.
- Keep your messages, searches and job postings organized and separate from your personal LinkedIn.com account.
