The LinkedIn Social Profile

The LinkedIn Social Profile allows you (as long as you have a LinkedIn Recruiter License) to automatically search and link the record to your existing LinkedIn Profile. If you do not have a LinkedIn Recruiter License, you may choose to add the LinkedIn URL information for the record within the Social Networking workflow.

By hovering over a flyout window displays your LinkedIn profile. If no link exists, a LinkedIn search is presented instead. If you enter the LinkedIn profile via the LinkedIn search, the link to the LinkedIn profile is captured and linked back into Adapt. If you clear the link from the Social Network workflow, the LinkedIn link will also be cleared.
