AI-Assisted Search and Projects in Recruiter

Last updated: 2 days ago

AI-Assisted Search and Projects in LinkedIn Recruiter is a generative AI (GAI) feature that will save time by enabling you to quickly search for candidates, create projects, 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 in your homepage, project creation, and search experience.

Who can use this feature?

The feature will be available in English for LinkedIn Recruiter and LinkedIn Recruiter Professional Services. We are gradually making this experience available, and you might not have access to it at this time. For more precise timing, contact your LinkedIn account team.

AI-Assisted Search

You can start a search with AI-Assisted Search from the Recruiter homepage or the Talent pool tab of a project. To search for potential job candidates, provide a plain language input, such as “Find me Marketing Managers in Dublin with sales enablement experience” or "Find me someone like [ideal candidate's name]" into the search tool. AI-Assisted Search will analyze what you wrote and instantly populate the right search filters to match your criteria. After your initial search results, AI-Assisted Search will also provide you with additional suggestions.

With AI-Assisted Search, you can:

  • Describe your hiring needs in your own words and the tool will create search filters for you.
  • Add a job description in the search bar to find candidates that meet the role’s requirements.
  • Ask the tool to create a Boolean in your own words.
  • 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.

AI-Assisted Projects

You can create a project with AI-Assisted Projects from the search bar on the Recruiter homepage or from the Projects page. As you create your project, provide a plain language input, such as “Make the project remote and full-time” or “How do I change the visibility of my project?” into the project creation tool. AI-Assisted Projects will provide recommendations to optimize your project.

With AI-Assisted Projects, you can:

  • Use your own words to create your project. The conversational experience will set up the right criteria to match.
  • Use AI-supported suggestions to refine your project and uncover even more qualified talent.
  • Receive actionable insights to refine your project.
  • 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 “How do I change the visibility of my project?” to learn more.

Talent Insights in AI-Assisted Search and Projects

If you have LinkedIn Recruiter and LinkedIn Talent Insights, you can dig further into surfaced insights by clicking on the View Talent Insights button at the top right of the search within an existing project. You can also enter “Show me a report for this Talent Pool” or “Generate a report for this talent for major cities on the West Coast” into the chat box to generate a Talent Insights report.
