AI-assisted hiring in Recruiter
Meet Sam, a recruiter at a fast-growing healthcare organization. She’s juggling multiple open roles, collaborating with department heads, and under pressure to find top candidates quickly. She’s just been asked to fill a new registered nurse position as soon as possible. To save time and improve her chances of finding the right candidate, Sam turns to LinkedIn Recruiter’s AI features to support each step of her hiring journey.
These AI features help Sam, and recruiters like you, boost productivity and surface qualified candidates faster. Here's how Sam uses AI in Recruiter to find quality candidates.
Step 1: Create a project with AI-Assisted Projects
Sam begins by creating a new project in Recruiter. In the chat box, she types: “Registered nurse in Chicago”. AI-Assisted Projects suggests additional criteria to help strengthen her search. These recommendations are based on similar successful projects and industry trends, helping her build a stronger candidate pool from the start. After completing the required fields, she finalizes and creates her project.
Step 2: Post a job with AI-Assisted Job Posts
Sam navigates to her project to post a job using the AI-Assisted Job Posts tool. By selecting an existing job post or draft, the AI helps her generate a new job post quickly, with suggested edits to improve clarity and alignment with her hiring goals. Sam reformats her job description using the built-in AI feature to improve the formatting to make it easier to read.
Step 3: Search for candidates with AI-Assisted Search
Next, Sam searches for candidates. Instead of manually setting filters on the Talent pool page, she types: “Registered nurse with ICU experience in Chicago” into the chat box. She also pastes a job description to further refine her search results. AI-Assisted Search analyzes and interprets what Sam enters, instantly applying the right search filters based on her context and intent, to match her criteria. Sam reviews profiles and adds qualified candidates to her pipeline.
Step 4: Send InMails with AI-Assisted Messages
Once Sam is ready to start her outreach, she uses AI-Assisted Messages to draft personalized InMail messages to up to 25 candidates at once. AI-Assisted Messages combines each candidate’s profile information with the job requirements to generate personalized messages, helping Sam save time and improve response rates.
Step 5: Review applicants with AI-Assisted Applicant Management
As applications come in, Sam uses AI-Assisted Applicant Management on the Applicants page to quickly identify top applicants and apply starters. She types: “Show me someone with 3 years of ICU experience.” The AI filters top matches based on her prompt, helping her focus on high-potential applicants.
Step 6: Monitor results with the InMail Report
Throughout the hiring process, Sam uses the InMail Report to track message performance. She compares the response rates for AI-generated messages vs. custom-written ones and adjusts her strategy accordingly.
