Via LinkedIn Recruiter System Connect (RSC)
Workable's integration with LinkedIn Recruiter System Connect (RSC) enables you to export candidates directly from LinkedIn to Workable, so you can spend less time on data entry and more time sourcing.
Before anything else, you will need to:
- Have a full LinkedIn Recruiter account (Lite accounts are not supported).
- Connect your LinkedIn Recruiter account with Workable.
- Enable LinkedIn Recruiter System Connect, ensuring that 1-click export is enabled under the Recruiter System Connect Settings.
- Confirm that the job has the Published status in Workable and you are a member of its hiring team; you can't export candidates from LinkedIn to the Talent pool.
There are two ways to export candidates from LinkedIn to Workable:
1. From the candidate profile on LinkedIn
- Click Export to ATS.
- Search for the published job to which you’d like to add the candidate.
- Click Export to add the candidate to the job’s Sourced stage automatically.
2. From the search view
LinkedIn does not support bulk exporting candidates to Workable, so you will have to export one candidate at a time.
Exported information:
- First Name
- Last Name
- Headline
- Education
- Experience (last two roles only)
- Top 3 skills (including the two most recent “highlighted” skills)
- Years of experience
- Email (❗if manually entered into the candidate email field in the 'Export to your ATS' window)
- Source (marked as “via LinkedIn RSC”)
- Notes (under candidate's Comments, if manually entered into the Notes field in the 'Export to your ATS' window)
When you initiate the export, we will run an extra enrichment through Search with AI to supplement the candidate profile. Once we confirm a match, one or more email addresses may be added to the candidate's profile. If you've already included an email during export, any additional emails found will be added under alternate emails. Some tips:
-
Edit the candidate and add contact information or other profile details
-
When you’re viewing a candidate’s profile in Workable, you’ll see a link to open their full LinkedIn profile
Via the Workable Extension
Workable's Chrome extension enables you to source candidates from LinkedIn instantly with just one click without the need for a LinkedIn Recruiter license. Sourcing candidates from LinkedIn will consume your LinkedIn views.
