If you’re a campus recruiter, you know the drill. You’re sourcing candidates in LinkedIn Recruiter, finding the perfect prospect, and then… you have to jump over to Yello to see if they’re already in your pipeline. Then back to LinkedIn to check your InMail history. Then back to Yello to log your notes. It’s a lot of tab-switching, and frankly, it’s exhausting.
We’ve heard your feedback: you want to spend more time building relationships with candidates and less time playing digital ping-pong between systems. That’s why we’re excited to announce Yello’s new integration with LinkedIn CRM Connect.
What Is LinkedIn CRM Connect?
LinkedIn CRM Connect is a powerful integration that connects LinkedIn Recruiter and Yello. Instead of working in two separate systems, you now have a seamless workflow that lets you access the information you need, right when you need it.
How It Works
The integration works both ways, giving you flexibility in how you want to work:
Working in LinkedIn Recruiter? You can see which candidates are already in your Yello pipeline without leaving LinkedIn. No more accidentally reaching out to a candidate you already contacted three months ago. You’ll also see your complete interaction history with each candidate, so you have full context before you send that InMail.
Working in Yello? You can view all your LinkedIn notes and InMail conversations right alongside other candidate activity. Even better, you can send InMail directly from Yello, keeping all your communications in one place.
When you find a great candidate in LinkedIn Recruiter, their profile can be synced seamlessly into Yello with their current information. No copying and pasting. No manual data entry. Just accurate, up-to-date candidate records that you can trust.
Why This Matters For You
Campus recruiting moves fast. You’re juggling career fairs, info sessions, interviews, and countless candidate conversations. The last thing you need is technology that slows you down.
Here’s what the LinkedIn CRM Connect integration means for your day-to-day work:
Get your time back: Every minute you spend switching between systems is a minute you’re not spending with candidates. By eliminating the constant back-and-forth, you can focus on what you do best: identifying great talent and building meaningful relationships with candidates.
Work with confidence: Ever wonder if the info in a candidate profile is still accurate? Now you can view real-time LinkedIn profiles in Yello and trust that you’re working with the latest information. So when candidates update their LinkedIn profiles with new skills, experiences, or accomplishments, you will be able to see those updates in Yello.
Never lose context: The worst feeling is reaching out to a candidate only to realize you already connected with them at last fall’s career fair. With CRM Connect, you’ll always know where you stand with each candidate. See your complete interaction history, including LinkedIn InMails, Yello campaigns, event attendance, and interview feedback all in one place.
Make smarter decisions: When you have a complete picture of how candidates are engaging with your outreach, you can make better decisions about where to focus your energy. Maybe you notice that a candidate has been actively engaging with your content but hasn’t responded to InMail. That tells you it may be time for a different approach, or maybe they’re just not ready yet. Either way, you have the insights you need to be strategic.
Build better candidate experiences: Candidates can tell when you’re just blasting out generic messages. When you have full visibility into your previous interactions, you can personalize your outreach in ways that actually resonate. Reference that great conversation you had at their career fair. Follow up on the specific role they expressed interest in. Show them you’re paying attention.
