LinkedIn Recruiter has a suite of Skills features to enable recruiters to quickly and confidently identify qualified candidates in everyday recruiting workflows. These features will help improve hiring efficiency, increase confidence in candidate outreach, and expand talent pools.
Contextual Skills
Job seekers can add information on how they’ve demonstrated skills to provide a broad measure of the candidate's qualifications. The Contextual Skills feature helps you identify “hidden gem" candidates based on how they’ve demonstrated skills instead of exclusively relying on traditional qualifications like education and direct work experience.
Skills Match
The Skills filter leverages the Skill Match functionality to provide insights on candidates who best match your job posting’s skill requirements. You’ll receive automated notifications and can filter candidates who best match the skills requirements in your job posting.
Similar Skills
Similar Skills spotlights candidates who have similar skills to those you have saved to help you discover “hidden gem" candidates. This feature allows you to gain insight into a candidate's full skill sets rather than focus exclusively on traditional qualifications like education and direct work experience.
