Apply with LinkedIn - Overview & Setup Guide

For clients who are LinkedIn Recruiter customers (have a LinkedIn Recruiter license/contract), you can enable the Apply with LinkedIn integration on your ClearCompany account. Apply with LinkedIn allows your candidates to quickly and easily use their LinkedIn profile information to apply to jobs located on your public career site. In this article, you will learn more about how the feature works and how to set up this integration.

How Candidates use Apply with LinkedIn

Once this feature is enabled for your organization, candidates who are completing a ClearCompany application through your career site will have the option to use their LinkedIn profile information to auto-fill parts of the application.

1. After inputting their name and email address at the beginning of the application process, the candidate will be able to select the option "Sign In with LinkedIn."

2. If the candidate is signed in to LinkedIn on their browser, they will be able to confirm that they want to use their profile to apply.
3. When they click Continue at the bottom of this screen, information about their career and education history pulled from LinkedIn will populate on the relevant fields of their application form, speeding up their application process.
