It discusses challenges in legal hiring and outlines a pilot program conducted by Fox Rothschild LLP to increase their brand awareness and meet hiring goals on LinkedIn.

The presentation provides examples of effective InMail messaging and concludes that the pilot doubled Fox Rothschild's speed in acquiring new followers and engaging candidates.

Richard Adams, The Access Group (previously ChangeWorkNow) will present ‘Are your recruiters
stuck in reaction mode’ A discussion around how recruiters should be more proactive with the resource
available in 2016 and how to manage applicants / candidates through an ATS and taking a look at specific
areas such as:Previous applicants, CV databases, Work experience and Networking

At the same time, candidates have more career choices, clients have more channels to research potential partners and competition for great talent is stiff.
How can you stay ahead in this new context? The answer lies in leveraging the enormous possibilities of social recruiting. And to do this, you need the right tools at your fingertips.

Sponsored Updates is the latest addition to the suite of Talent Brand Solutions offered at LinkedIn.
Ads help you build awareness of your company and hiring and follow members wherever they go throughout the site.
Sponsored Updates help you engage and build relationships with target passive and active talent.
And with Talent Direct you can connect on a one to one basis with an email directed specifically to this same population.
We recently analyzed the results of 10 customers who ran both Display and Sponsored Updates simultaneously and we found that members who were exposed to both had a 25%+ lift in CTR on their Sponsored Updates and display CTRs remained the same.
Some clients ask why they wouldn’t just run only Sponsored Updates. If you only include Sponsored Updates in your campaign, you will miss about 70% of the traffic to the LinkedIn desktop site on popular pages like Groups, Profiles, and the member’s InBox.
LinkedIn’s solution helps you showcase your brand where professionals already go today.
Developing a strong talent brand on LinkedIn begins with your best branding asset—your employees. Your employees are surrounded by people with similar skillsets, from similar companies, from the same schools. Today, each interaction with one of your employees is a missed opportunity to engage a qualified candidate. The LinkedIn Core solution allows you to participate in every one of these interactions.
As candidates learn more about your company, you can provide rich employer branding experience via a Career Page to provide a better understanding of what makes your company unique.
Finally, your jobs provide relevance to every one of these interactions by serving up best-fit jobs to every candidate that views your employees’ profiles or Career Page. Relevance is the key to engagement on the web, and without posting all of your roles to LinkedIn you’re missing an opportunity to capture candidates’ attention.
Data methodology
Companies that add Work With Us see a 34% (median) to 66% (75th percentile) increase in LinkedIn Career Page traffic.
Your goal should be to grow your Follower's on LinkedIn – by building relevant Followers you will be far more successful both placing candidates and winning new business
LinkedIn has done extensive research to understand which of our members is familiar with you as an employer, and which of our members are interested in you as an employer. We relate these behaviors back to their activities on LinkedIn.
We asked: how familiar are you with xyzCo as a place to work?
We also asked: how interested are you in xyzCo as a place to work?
We then looked at the people who responded “familiar” or “very familiar” and determined which activities they engaged in on LinkedIn. We found that those who are “familiar” or “very familiar” are 2x more likely to have viewed your employee profiles or connected to your employees. 75% of people who are “familiar” or “very familiar” have engaged in these activities.
We then looked at the people who responded “interested” or “very interested” (a subset of those who are familiar) and determined which activities they engaged in on LinkedIn. We found that those who are “interested” or “very interested” are 44% more likely to have researched your company, followed, or viewed your jobs/applied than those who are not interested. 83% of all people who are “interested” or “very interested” have engaged in these activities.
If you build it, they will come. Make it worthwhile and meaningful.
Larger share of voice
Drive traffic back to career page (serve themselves up to folks who match)
Natural course of action is to build and learn more
Once you’ve laid the foundation with your jobs and talent brand, LinkedIn Recruiter allows you to search for and engage with the exact talent that you need

How can we measure your employer brand? We start by looking at the reach and engagement you have with external talent
TALENT BRAND REACH: Includes the people who know what it’s like to work at your company—those that are familiar with your company as an employer
TALENT BRAND ENGAGEMENT: Includes the subset of people within your reach who are interested in you as a potential employer
Research shows that people familiar with what it’s like to work at your company are the same people connected to and engaging with your employees on LinkedIn
Research also shows that people who are interested in working at your company are the same ones who are taking that extra step on LinkedIn to learn more: browsing/applying to jobs on LinkedIn, following your company, and visiting your company and career pages.
We can measure your talent brand index vs your talent peers.
Your competitors to the left of the graph have the easiest time engaging talent– talent shows high interest in them. Your talent peers on the right of this graph have a harder time engaging talent, because of their weaker employer brand.
The stronger your brand, the easier it is for you to attract the right candidates to your roles.
This measures # of engaged members vs peers
However, this measure does not control for company size; the stronger your brand, the easier it will be to attract the right candidates to your roles.
More specifically, our mission is to help you and the rest of our 414M+ members 1) network and stay connected with their colleagues and stay informed through all the professionally relevant content shared on LinkedIn, 2) advance their career by getting hired into their next great career opportunity, or developing and learning new skills to help them move forward and 3) work smarter to attract, recruit and hire talent (LTS), market products & services (LMS), find leads and generate sales (LSS), and get clients.
The opportunity for marketers comes very strongly from the 1st pillar and 3rd pillar: 1st pillar - as our members seek the knowledge that will help them in their jobs and careers, businesses have a critical role to play in providing information that helps our members achieve their objectives. 2nd pillar – market products and services with LMS
