A Guide to LinkedIn Recruiter Lite

Many people log on to LinkedIn for varying reasons, such as joining LinkedIn groups, but one of the most effective ways to use the platform is for recruitment. With a single click, hiring managers are able to view a person’s work experience, and determine whether he’s a right fit before getting in touch to pursue further.

LinkedIn has long since leveraged this platform for recruitment, and even offers a Premium subscription feature for it: Recruiter Lite.

What is Recruiter Lite on LinkedIn?

Users can reach out a connection request to 30 candidates monthly. Recruiter offers 5x that number, with 150 InMails per month and personalized templates.

To make search easier, Recruiter Lite gives access to 20+ features with full profile view capabilities to x-degree LinkedIn connections. On Recruiter, there are 40+ available filters with full profile view capabilities to 550M+ LinkedIn members.

Reports

Recruiter Light has reporting insights for InMail and Jobs post performance. Recruiter also gives the same access to insights, in addition to Recruiter usage, pipeline, and summary data, relating to all and every connection request.

Those interested in paying for a LinkedIn Recruiter account subscription may request for a free demo from LinkedIn through their Candidate Search Tool page.
