Overall Satisfaction with LinkedIn Jobs

I use LinkedIn Jobs to recruit for my hard to fill positions. The positions I utilize this for are positions with a very specific skillset and qualifications. This particular engine doesn't generate a lot of candidates, but the right candidates. I don't have to worry as much to receive an influx of unqualified candidates.

Pros

  • Sorting out qualified candidates
  • targets appropriate audience
  • asks the right questions when posting job

Cons

  • Allow more applicants for the free posting
  • Allow a better way to promote the job
  • highlight the position on a higher level
  • I have not made a hire from LinkedIn Jobs
  • I HAVE made many connections within the Pharmacy community
Indeed seems to have a farther reach than the other products. With that, I receive ALOT of unqualified applicants. You do have to sort through quite a few applications to get to the right fit. LinkedIn Jobs, on the other hand, does not deliver nearly as many candidates, but the ones it does, they are qualified. I am not a fan of SeekOut at all, and ZipRecruiter delivers the same applicants over and over again.

Do you think LinkedIn Jobs delivers good value for the price?

Yes

Would you buy LinkedIn Jobs again?

I used LinkedIn Jobs recently for a director position. I sent the instructions to another Director to also post on her LinkedIn. While this is not where we found our candidate, it was a great tactic to bring attention to the posted position. The form used allowed us to detail the position to its full extent.
