    User Type PermissionDescription
    Connect LinkedIn account to user

    With this permission, users who were granted a LinkedIn Recruiter seat can connect their LinkedIn account to their Oracle Taleo Enterprise Edition user account. For details of what recruiters can do once this permission is granted, see Key Capabilities in Fluid Recruiting and Key Capabilities in LinkedIn Recruiter.

    When this permission isn't granted, users won't see the user interface component which allows the Connect function.

    It's recommended to only grant this permission to your audience of recruiters who are granted a LinkedIn Recruiter seat. This mitigates confusion for users who don’t have a seat, as they will not see the ability to make the connection.

    Access the LinkedIn Profile Widget

    With this permission, users can see the LinkedIn icon to link to the profile widget. Depending on your arrangements with LinkedIn, access to the Profile Widget may be available to all Oracle Taleo Enterprise Edition users, or only to those with a connected seat. Inquire with LinkedIn to understand what is available to your users.
