AI-Assisted Search in LinkedIn Recruiter is a generative AI (GAI) feature that will save time by enabling you to quickly search for candidates and get recommendations just by stating what you need in your own words into a prompt box and chat experience. You’ll find this feature on your homepage, in the global search bar, or in the Talent pool located on the left pane of a project.
With AI-Assisted Search, you can:
- Describe your hiring needs in your own words and the tool will create search filters for you.
- Start a Boolean search in the search bar.
- Click the icon on the right side of the search bar and select from one of the prompt template options:
- Generate or refine a boolean search: Create a new Boolean search or paste an existing one and ask for Al-powered suggestions to improve it.
- Ask for Al insights about your talent pool: Ask for insights about your talent pool like top skills, companies with layoffs, or common job titles.
- Create a search from a job description: Generate a search using an existing job description.
- Create a search from a profile: Use a member's profile to generate a search for similar candidates with @.
- Receive actionable insights to help you think outside the box and expand your search.
- Click Show filters and manually adjust the search filters or try different inputs to reach the desired outcomes.
- Use AI-supported suggestions to refine your search and uncover even more qualified talent.
- Provide in-product feedback by clicking the thumbs up or thumbs down icon if the results do not meet your expectations so the product can learn from this and improve over time.
- Ask a question related to your Recruiter contract or experience. For example, you can ask “What are automated pipeline stages?” to learn more about a feature.
- Add a job description or job link in the search bar to find candidates that meet the role’s requirements.
- Access Advanced AI Search to add, edit, or delete qualifications in the filter pane on the left, and view an AI summary on the candidate profile card detailing why they’re a good fit.
