Define Data Set to Synchronize

You can configure the data you want to synchronize with LinkedIn. You can synchronize a universal data set, or you can limit the data to specific populations.

Synchronize a Universal Data Set

The Synchronize a universal data set option is selected by default and it's the recommended option. The service will synchronize all the candidates, job applications, and requisitions in your zone.

When you activate Recruiter System Connect with a universal dataset, you maximize:

  • Candidates for whom you have access to the LinkedIn Profile Widget inside Oracle Taleo Enterprise Edition.

  • Candidates for whom you can review the InMails and Notes from inside Oracle Taleo Enterprise Edition.

  • LinkedIn members for whom you can identify whether they are in Oracle Taleo Enterprise Edition, and view their job applications.

  • The requisitions for which you can create job submissions from inside LinkedIn Recruiter.

  • The requisitions automatically posted to the LinkedIn jobs site as a Limited Listing.

You can choose whether requisitions posted to external and public career sections are posted to the LinkedIn job board as a Limited Listing using the Synchronize requisitions as Public (posted to LinkedIn jobs site) setting.

When the setting is enabled, all requisitions posted to a career section that is both externaland public are posted to LinkedIn as a limited listing. The job synchronization with LinkedIn sends this value of public which drives this posting behavior.

When the setting is disabled, all requisitions are sent and synchronized as private.

Synchronize a Limited Data Set

The LinkedIn Recruiter System Connect service allows you to limit the dataset which will be synchronized with LinkedIn. There may be cases where you want to exclude certain datasets from synchronizing with LinkedIn, perhaps for regulatory, privacy, or other considerations. If that's the case, select the Synchronize a limited data set option. Then select desired filters.

If you choose to synchronize a limited dataset, the Candidate Locations, Requisition Locations, User Groups, and Requisition Types filters must have a value populated to activate the LinkedIn Recruiter System Connect service.
