LinkedIn Announces new Recruiter platform, it's first ATS and new diversity insights at Talent Connect Conference

Today at our ninth annual Talent Connect conference, we announced several new products and features to help talent leaders navigate today's digital transformation, against a backdrop of the growing skills shortage and fierce competition for talent and getting hired.

Providing a foundation for the announcements is the evolution of our Talent Solutions portfolio, to focus on helping companies through the entire talent ecosystem, including how they source and hire diverse candidates, how they help develop talent and, overall, how they build winning teams.

Today’s news includes:

LinkedIn's new Recruiter platform and new Recruiter System Connect integrations

We have rebuilt our entire suite of recruiting products on a common platform, providing a seamless and streamlined experience that will interlock the features of Recruiter, Jobs and Media products in a simple-to-use design, powered by the latest AI and machine learning technology. With this new platform our products will work together better than ever before. Also because we know there are other pieces of a recruiter's work, we've announced we’ve been deploying our most robust integration with applicant tracking systems ever, Recruiter System Connect (RSC). Today we announced RSC integrations with Oracle HCM Cloud and Taleo Enterprise Edition.

New ATS: Talent Hub

Our new ATS for small-to-mid-sized companies, called TalentHub, will give talent professionals the tools they need to be even more effective in the entire hiring process -- from first sourced through onboarding. LinkedIn's newly built applicant tracking system is built on our new platform and puts the entire candidate journey, from to hiring, in talent professionals’ hands with a beautiful design and seamless experience.

Diversity Insights

Diversity hiring is a top priority for our customers, so we have infused gender diversity insights across our talent portfolio, arming organizations with actionable insights to build diverse teams. We've also released new courses on LinkedIn Learning to help hiring managers build more inclusive workplaces, which will be available to access for free to a limited time.

Skills Insights in LinkedIn Learning

We're adding Skills Insights within LinkedIn Learning Pro to help inform L+D administrators how to develop their current workforce by showing them the skills of their employees, identifying skills gaps, and giving them the ability to compare their workforce skills with competitors. This also gives learners insight into the top skills for their job, and trending skills to make sure they stay ahead in their career.
