LinkedIn Recruiter App Reviews

This is awesome. So happy to have Recruiter in my pocket!

Useless. Constantly crashes upon opening. Need to reinstall every time you want to use it. No ability to search sent inmails either.

I like how you can see who has applied and replied to inmails, but not sure what search algorithm it follows if you want to search for candidates? They dont yield the same results as the desktop. It has a nice and clean user experience, but its not ready for power users.

I love hunting Software Engineers when I am on the go.

Cannot post or change ads. If posted jobs on LinkedIn, it shows random applicants. There is some sort of messaging, but you cant deleted messages or manipulate in any way. Useless.

Used to work great, but unable to send inmails through the app, from saved templates. Please fix!

Never had an instance when it didnt crash. Fastest un install ever!

Continued issues with Inmails for over 30 days. I reported this 4xs directly to LinkedIn and they keep saying they are working on this issue and to use the browser only to send InMails. I used this daily as Fortune 25 company recruiter. Really disappointed. I travel frequently and the convenience of sending InMails from my iPhone at airports, during flights or any other location is much needed. I dont want to bust out the laptop to do this. Come on LinkedIn, as the organization that prides themselves on innovative social media platform, u should be embarrassed about this issue and the app.

It a very great tool. I love it !!!!

I am a linkedin certified power user. As a matter of fact I bought the iPhone 6 plus specifically for this app. Unfortunately the app stops working by the 5th Inmail I send which renders this $500 Goliath of a phone pretty useless. It forces me to use my company brick lap top so on the go recruiting not so much.

Ive purchased several months of rights to send "Inmails" to candidates and 90% of the time their is an "error/could not send". Im not even sure if the Inmails that say "your message was sent" were even sent most of the time, theres no way to cross reference by reading your sent mail like an email. To make matters worse, I was locked out of my recruiter account with 40 Inmails left to send and have heard back from any of my correspondences. I would not recommend this platform. Indeed may be a better platform to find talent.

Poor functionality, but biggest problem is the email functionality works less than half the time.

Im a huge LinkedIn Recruiter user and its simply astonishing how truly awful this app is! For starters when you look at someones profile the app completely messes up the order of their work history. The first experience you see might be from 7 years ago while their current role is buried halfway down. Saving candidates to a project fails more often than it succeeds. Same goes for attempting to send an InMail. The absolute worse part of this is LinkedIn has known about all 3 of these issues for more than a year and failed to address any of them (I know because Ive reported these issues to LinkedIns support team!)

This app keeps getting worse and worse. Messages fail to send. Anything I update fails to update(personal settings). And heres the kicker... I tried to send feedback through the app to help them improve and fix the issues complete with screen shots and documenting the steps - surprise! Failed to send!!! Beyond frustrating- especially considering this is a paid service & I would imagine the app is baked into the hefty cost of a LinkedIn recruiter license!!

Whats the point of the app if I cant send emails from my PAID account? Serious issues. Please fix!

One of the biggest advantages of having a Recruiter level account is the project workflow and the ability to communicate with clients/candidates on the LinkedIn platform. Well, this app does a great job of showing you who responded to your InMails, but it will NOT allow you to respond to them (it says an error occurs). LinkedIn, please address! We all pay very good sums of money and having a properly functioning iPhone app is BARE minimum for todays standards.

If I could give 0 stars I would! Its supposed to make it more convenient for me to reply back vs going on my laptop. But every time I try to reply back to a message it always says "error/could not send"!!!! Someone fix this app!!!

Lots of bugs.

Why would I expect the app to be any better than the actual platform? Horrible interface, inmails work only 50% of the time... No good tracking or reporting functions. Same limitations as the online version, just worse.

Aside from making it nearly impossible to conduct effective searches you cannot even reply to candidates. This app is only useful for seeing incoming messages however if you want to reply you need to go to a computer because every single outgoing message gets an error and unable to send. Has been going on for months. So much potential and this should be a more seamless way to recruit from a mobile device but again nearly inoperable. Not sure why its still an app on my phone. I guess I am just hoping itll be fixed.
