LinkedIn Recruiter System Connect (RSC) functionality

What

LinkedIn Recruiter System Connect (RSC) integrates LinkedIn Recruiter with your Mercury CRM to make your hiring process even simpler.

How

By turning on RSC, you’re authorising the sharing of some candidate, job and application data across Recruiter and Mercury. It enables you to get up-to-date candidate information, boost collaboration, and access more applicant data in Recruiter. Please speak to your Customer Success Manager for assistance in having this integration enabled.

Cost

The integration is available to customers as part of their Mercury CRM - please see details below regarding LinkedIn licensing requirements.

Licensing

In order to utilise LinkedIn RSC, you need to hold a minimum of one or more Recruiter Corporate or Recruiter Professional Service (RPS) seats.

NOTE: RSC is not available for Recruiter Lite customers.
 

Features

Feature	Description
In-ATS Indicator	Recruiters can see more candidate data within Recruiter to help quickly prioritise new leads and avoid contacting the wrong candidates or those whose application is already in the system. When working in LinkedIn, the recruiter will be able to see an indicator showing if the candidate is already in the Mercury CRM and a link to open the record directly in Mercury.
In-ATS Profile Widget	Recruiters will have a LinkedIn tab on the contact record displaying the LinkedIn widget which displays the LinkedIn member profile when the Mercury contact profile matches a LinkedIn member. InMails can then be sent from Mercury via the LinkedIn widget.
Click Export	Recruiters can quickly export a LinkedIn member profile from Recruiter to a Mercury vacancy shortlist
InMail History	InMail messages sent and received within Recruiter will be synchronised onto the timeline of the contact record in Mercury for all Mercury users to view
Notes History	Profile notes created within Recruiter will be synchronised into the Mercury contact record timeline for all Mercury users to view.
InMail Stub Profile	When a LinkedIn candidate responds to a recruiter's InMail and agrees to share contact details, these will be used to create a new record or update an existing record.
Applicant History	While working in LinkedIn, a recruiter can see the history of an applicant who is in their Mercury CRM

A: They are able to see details of InMails and Notes from their colleagues who do have the above licence on the Mercury contact record timeline.

Q: Can I export candidates CVs from LinkedIn?
A: No, the export to ATS function will create the LinkedIn candidate in Mercury and shortlist them against your vacancy. You can then send the person an InMail. If they agree to share further details such as email and phone number, these will be updated onto their Mercury record.
