Profile Plugin

The JavaScript profile plugin is a component of Recruiter System Connect that allows a LinkedIn profile to be displayed in your application. Users of your application will be prompted in the plugin to log into LinkedIn if they do not have an active cookie. We will check to see that the user's company has a valid LinkedIn Recruiter license.

The plugin is rendered within an iFrame and is self-contained; the JavaScript code handles the authentication and renders the content.

This feature is dependent on already syncing candidates from your system to LinkedIn. Considering that candidate data in your system might differ from LinkedIn Member data on LinkedIn, there is a possibility that the Profile Plugin will not return a correct match or identify a match at all. In the event that either occur, a user will be able to correct the match manually from within the widget.

Note: Your application will have an API key per customer.
