401 LinkedIn Talent Solutions Testimonials

“Learning and development is especially important for the new generation of job candidates, even more than salary in some cases. We want to show employees, ‘We invest in you.’ It’s something we take very seriously.”

"LinkedIn is the best tool we have. We have to be faster than in-house recruiters – we now have the edge."

“In a req-driven culture, the window in which candidates are considered can be very narrow. The best talent does not always present during that window, so you have to be opportunistic and always engage in the talent community. This is especially true when diversity hiring is a priority for your business. Sometimes the perfect person presents themselves before you have a need, and if you can seize that opportunity, the entire business will be better for it.”

“LinkedIn has been an important part of our social media strategy to engage our people, our clients and prospective employees, and demonstrate through our engagement strategies how Aurecon is a leading, vibrant and global professional services company.”

“LinkedIn has been a key element in our strategy to be able to find the people, target them and hire them.”

“I had very little knowledge of employment opportunities in other countries and certainly no contacts or means to know what was on offer. But I did know that I wanted to leave the United States and go to Germany. I first updated my LinkedIn profile with my recent skills, and discovered that you could specifically tailor your notification settings based on company locations. Once I’d done this, I’d see around five surprisingly good matches in my inbox every couple of days. Having this small number of good matches suited me well, as I could realistically research them to see if they were a good fit. And these matches are how I first heard about Careem, the interesting work they were doing, their fast pace of operation, and their various offices around the world. From there, I heard back from their chief recruiter and the rest was history!”

“When I was looking for new opportunities, I didn't expect that I’d be headhunted from Dubai! It all started with an InMail that I received from Careem’s VP of Engineering, Imran Sayed, which turned into a conversation and ended with me receiving an offer from Careem.”

"If I had to describe LinkedIn in one word, it would be: Essential.”

“By using LinkedIn, we are not only reaching potential new colleagues but also new clients. Via targeted searches, we have found more than 80 new colleagues and via the excellent segmentation options and projects, we are building talent pools for the future.”

“We are visionaries. We imagine the future with our clients and support them with their dreams."

“We have been imagining what tomorrow will look for our clients since 1871. We want our clients to feel at ease about their financial future. That could be a family business owner that wants to acquire a new company, an investor who wants to invest in sustainable funds or a grandmother who wants to support their grandchild in their own venture. Whatever it is, we help them to realise their ambitions. But to do that, you must put people first.”

“Degroof Petercam’s hybrid client approach – where people and expertise are central yet supported by technology – is the best way forward. The best solutions coupled with the best expertise – and delivered in a client-centric in addition to user-friendly manner – are the key to success.”

“We’re big enough and small enough to matter. We put people first and that’s why the human touch is so important.”

"For every £1 spent on acquiring new hires, Transport for London (TfL) saved £3 on other sourcing costs, and TfL now mainly uses LinkedIn for recruiting - less than 5% of our hiring is through traditional methods."

“Our role at UCB is to close the gap between current and future capabilities as soon as efficiently possible. We do it in three steps: Describe the gap and timing (with the HRBPs and the business leaders), put in place Build/Buy/Borrow plans (via the Talent Acquisition and Learning teams) and then measure the impact of our actions. Together with a growth culture, a data-driven mentality and having the person at the centre, we are very excited to contribute to UCB´s mission.”
