Assign Hiring Assistant licenses

As a Product Settings and Account Center Admin in LinkedIn Recruiter, you can assign a Hiring Assistant license to multiple existing users with an active Recruiter license in LinkedIn Admin Center.

Who can use this feature?

Hiring Assistant is available as an add-on for LinkedIn Recruiter and LinkedIn Recruiter Professional Services Plus (RPS+) customers with their language preference set to English. Only users with the Product Settings and Account Center Admin permission type can manage licenses, roles, and permissions in LinkedIn Recruiter. We’re gradually making this experience available, and you might not have access to it at this time.

A Hiring Assistant license in LinkedIn Recruiter enables recruiters to use Hiring Assistant to create projects, source and message candidates, and manage hiring tasks more efficiently.

You can assign a Hiring Assistant license to an existing user with one of the following roles:

Recruiter User
Recruiter Admin
Custom Role (with a Hiring Project Creator license and the Recruiter Searcher permission)

When you assign a license to multiple users at a time, all users will receive the same license type. To efficiently assign Hiring Assistant licenses to multiple users, group the users based on their required license type. Assign the licenses to one group at a time, ensuring that each user receives the appropriate license suited to their role. Once you complete the assignment for one group, proceed with the next group. For example:

Start by assigning Hiring Assistant licenses to all users with the Recruiter User role.
After completing this group, assign the licenses to users with the Recruiter Admin role.
Next, move on to users with Custom Roles.

To assign a Hiring Assistant license to multiple existing users:

Move your cursor over your profile picture at the top of your Recruiter homepage and select Manage users in Admin Center from the dropdown.
On the Users tab, select the checkbox next to the users whose licenses you want to manage.
- Use filters or the search box to locate users by license type, status, group, name, or email.
Select Manage licenses at the bottom of the page.
Under Select a role, choose one of the following:
- Recruiter User
- Recruiter Admin
- Custom Role with the Hiring Project Creator license and the Recruiter Searcher permission
Select the checkbox next to Assign Hiring Assistant Tier [number].
Click Save.

The existing users will automatically gain access to Hiring Assistant. It may take a few minutes for the Hiring Assistant licenses to appear in Recruiter.
