Working in the tech sector it is a like a bible of candidates. It is relatively easy to use. > > **Cons**: The customer support is very poor. I recently had a serious data breach where someone accesed my account and sent hundreds of messages out. The Trust and Safety team were a disaster to work with and never removed the messages. ----- ### "Comprehensive but can sometimes feel clunky" — 4.0/5 > **Sam** | *21 August 2025* | Financial Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: - Best access to both active and passive candidates - Organisation through Projects - Integration with ATS for job ads and adding candidates - Market insights > > **Cons**: - It is a big business cost but also holds a monopoly on access - Scheduling can sometimes be difficult - InMail creation can be limited ----- ### "Needed but Tough" — 4.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *4 December 2025* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: This is extremely useful for the high use recruiter. This tool is best spent on someone who is proactively recruiting. If you have a position you have lots of responses for a job posting, maybe think twice. > > **Cons**: COST, and LinkedIn is tough. Once you sign up for all the services you are in it. It was hard to be flexible as we are a small business. > > Great in terms of helping us service our clients. However I think LinkedIn needs to pay attention to the small business owners too and understand there needs to be a break in helping them. ----- ### "Strong candidate engagement, easy to use for recruiters but costly" — 3.0/5 > **Cynthia** | *29 August 2025* | Staffing & Recruiting | Recommendation rating: 6.0/10 > > **Pros**: LinkedIn Recruiter is very easy to use and fits naturally into a recruiter’s workflow. You can manage candidate pipelines, create different projects, and leave notes, which makes collaboration across teams much smoother. Moving candidates between projects is simple, and integrations with other tools plus the ability to connect directly to job postings make the process even more efficient. From a sourcing perspective, the biggest advantage is that candidates tend to reply more on LinkedIn than through cold emails, as communication via InMails feels more legitimate and trustworthy. > > **Cons**: The main drawbacks are the limitations and cost. InMail credits are very restricted and run out quickly, and accessing the full LinkedIn talent pool is prohibitively expensive for smaller companies. For the price, the restrictions on outreach and search capabilities feel too limiting. > > LinkedIn Recruiter is a solid tool for day-to-day recruiting and collaboration, and it definitely helps boost candidate engagement. However, the cost and InMail limits make it difficult to scale effectively, especially for smaller recruiting teams. ----- ### "Amazing recruitment tool, if only a few more people were using it then it'd be perfect." — 4.0/5 > **James** | *31 August 2025* | Information Technology & Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Very good filters for narrowing down candidate searches. Recommendations based on current search are relevant and useful. Integration with our CRM system (Workable) is good, meaning I can see when someone has already applied to a position within our company and what the outcome of that was, for example. Can send mass emails from within the app but with simple ways to 'personalise' them. Simple to get through a lot of people, quickly. Get your search narrowed down and then you can click to the right to just go through each (this cannot be done in Seek, for example). Lots of options of where to shortlist people (pipeline), not just 'shortlist' but different categories of that, for example 'Future Prospect', 'Do not contact' etc. Makes it very easy to organise how you'd like to. Messages sent when a shortlisted person becomes available for work, very handy to catch people quickly when they are actively looking. > > **Cons**: LinkedIn still has less people utilising it than Seek, so narrower range of people you can access. The AI automated email, when contacting candidates, is a little obtrusive. It may be good but I prefer to send my own messages, and you have to be very careful that a) it is YOUR message that you are sending, and b) that it has gone to all the people and not just one. I made errors in both at some stage and although careful now, I can see why those errors occurred. Not super clear and can be an issue for recruiters in a rush. > > Me, and my colleagues, love using LinkedIn Recruiter. It is very easy to use, simply laid out, and convenient. I find a couple of people every month through it, though it does still have less people using it than Seek (AU/NZ recruitment platform), and there are very, very minor niggles here and there, but just love the look of it and the filters are a joy to use. ----- Page: 1 / 7\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.ie/software/1017510/linkedin-recruiter?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.ie/software/1017510/linkedin-recruiter) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | de | | | de-AT | | | de-CH | | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
