How To Use LinkedIn Groups To Connect with Passive Candidates [Video]

After one episode about LinkedIn recommendations; here’s another epdisode with Jorgen Sundberg of Link Humans together with Recruitment Juice. This time it’s about how recruiters (or anyone in fact) can connect with new people on LinkedIn by using the group feature.

  • Connect with people who are completely outside of your network by joinning the same groups they are in.
  • Send direct messages or direct invitations to connect with those individals.
  • Remember though, that the facility to contact users through groups is switch on by default. However, if an individual has had a lot of spam contact, he can switch this off at any given time.
