    Chose LinkedIn Recruiter
    To be honest, they are both two different beasts. I think LinkedIn Recruiter is more practical. I think the UI is cleaner and everything is easier to navigate. However, ZoomInfo provides far more information about the company someone works for by giving me insight into their …

    LinkedIn is a better recruitment program overall in my opinion. I like the InMail feature which seems to get far better results than emailing from ZoomInfo Talent.

    LinkedIn Recruiter is better suited in terms of the filters it provides to search for a pool of candidates. Features like past and current companies, past universities, or years of experience, AI Search, and AI message drafting do wonders in terms of recruitment. But some more filters can be added, which will help further in recruitment. For example, Boolean search in job titles, targeting specific keywords in recent experience, etc.

    Honestly, I'm not using ZoomInfo because I have researchers who have their licenses to several platforms. So, I don't think I need it moving forward.

    Pros
    LinkedIn
    • The scheduler is my most favorite part of Recruiter. Super easy and organized to use.
    • It also can integrate with my applicant tracking system when and if I hire from LinkedIn Recruiter.
    • The fact that you can see an applicants full profile gives more information than just a resume when selecting candidates to interview.

    Cons
    LinkedIn
    • For some reason, whenever I click "View in Recruiter" it takes me to the project summary screen instead of that candidate's profile in Recruiter
    • It would be nice if candidates got automatically moved to the appropriate stage when an action is taken (ie "Contacted" after sending them a message)

    ZoomInfo
    • I think the data (emails and phone numbers) is only somewhat accurate.
    • Often there is company data missing that is important.
    • ZoomInfo doesn't provide phone support for free; you have to pay for phone support in addition to the platform.

    Usability
    LinkedIn
    This portals helps to source the profile directly from the LinkedIn where I don't need to check the resume and LinkedIn separately every time. LinkedIn Recruiter is the best platform for posting the job effortlessly. It requires only few details and we can get response quicker.

    It's ok. I don't think it's fabulous. Initially I purchased ZoomInfo Talent to replace LinkedIn Professional Recruiter. I found that I was still finding and connecting with more candidates and ultimately placing them using LinkedIn. I don't think it's an adequate substitute for LinkedIn RPS.

    SeekOut has a diversity filter, which I like. They also list some candidates that are not on LinkedIn, but ultimately SeekOut routes me to LinkedIn. So technically SeekOut allows me to screen for filters that LinkedIn does not, but I actually end up using LinkedIn Recruiter to manage and communicate with the candidates.

    Return on Investment
    LinkedIn
    • It's a must have for reaching passive candidates.
    • Love being able to identify candidates we may need in the future and saving them in a project.
    • It's difficult to cut through the noise using Inmails since everyone is using the tool.

    • Negative ROI for 2024. I found often the phone numbers, emails and current companies were not current.
    • It's a nice product to have as an add on.
    • I don't think training is great; I found it made more sense to hire someone to utilize my sourcing instead.
