I have been using LinkMe now for a few months. It is very simple to use and saves a lot of time as I can search for and find specific candidates with specific experience, at times without even having to write a job ad. I made my first placement within 2 weeks of using the site and as a result the investment paid for itself immediately. Also, using LinkMe I can access quality candidates to float to clients providing us with invaluable new business. All in all very satisfied.

I really don't know how I used to get by with out Linkme! Over the past year, it has become my first point of call for looking for great candidates and it has brought me countless amounts of success. From top executives to support staff, Linkme has help me and our team locate them, and locate them quickly!

Great news in that we have this week confirmed our maiden placement of a candidate sourced from LinkMe. The candidate was sourced from
South Australia and has won a senior role within an established Tasmanian financial services firm. Suffice to say our annual investment in Linkme has paid for itself + a profit in one hit!

We had an urgent need come in for a permanent Cognos person (that is a little scarce skill in the market of late) so after placing an ad on the job boards I logged on to LinkMe. Literally within 2 minutes I had come across a fantastic candidate that had put her resume on LinkMe the day before and I was the first to call her and within 5 days she had started. Short and sweet but I guess that summed up the process of finding the ideal candidate.

I had a graduate position to fill and was having trouble finding locally based candidates with good grades and technical skills. I located the perfect person on LinkMe after 6 weeks we placed her and she started this week. Both my client and candidate are very happy.

We typically use LinkMe to help find candidates for our clients but as an added bonus, we just secured a great Software Services Manager for ourselves. The LinkMe database has improved massively in the last 8 months and there are heaps of really good candidates.

Our recruiters focus efforts on online sources. [We have] had great success with LinkMe for higher-end roles. People post their CVs against their profile and prospective employers can perform keyword searches to locate appropriate talent.

I wanted to write to let you know how "LinkMe" has turned out to be a tremendous search tool for me as a Recruitment Manager. We purchased the licence only 3 months ago when I joined the newly created recruitment agency - 21st Century Recruitment Pty Ltd. In such a tight employment market I knew before I started that in order to be successful I needed to expand my recruitment search by using other channels. I discussed LinkMe as a channel I wanted to work with my Managing Director.
As most recruiters are so busy, needing to fill roles yesterday... LinkMe gives me immediate access to candidates resumes as well as their mobile numbers where I can ring and phone screen instantly. Many times candidates are in disbelief at how many calls they receive from recruiters who found them on LinkMe and they love it!
After 3 months we had sourced 2 amazing candidates who were somewhat passive, but when I placed the advert on LinkMe as well they responded. I am referring to a Business Analyst as well as Executive PA of which both have been with us now for over 2 weeks and are doing so well already.
With LinkMe, I search and filter to check whether any candidates should be short listed and only if not successful, will I resort to placing an advert. This has proven to be very cost and time effective for me.

Key Recruitment have been a client of Link Me for around 9 months now, and have found it a great help to our business. We made our first placement reasonably quickly after joining, so it quickly paid for itself. Link Me was the first candidate based site that we were made aware of; it is a refreshing new angle from the standard job boards.

I find LinkMe really useful and have made a number of placements using the database primarily in the area of Sales and Customer Service. In a candidate short market this is a great way to access passive talent pools and networks usually reserved by expensive recruitment agencies. Even if the candidates I call already have jobs they are usually more than happy to recommend a few candidates they personally know who maybe suitable. This form of networking for talent gives me a competitive edge over rival companies.
The automatic emails I receive based on saved job criteria means I always know when new talent joins the LinkMe network which is invaluable. Coupled with this and the fantastic after sales support, Link Me provides high return on investment when you consider the enormous costs associated with sourcing candidates in the current climate. I recommend it to all my HR friends as LinkMe is user friendly and overall my experience has been extremely positive.

All recruiters know there is an evident shortage of good quality candidates. We exhaust all avenues in finding top quality, experienced staff. LinkMe provided an array of quality candidates to source; and within one week we managed to search, select, interview and hire a high caliber candidate for our company.

Without any training the first time I went into LinkMe I made a placement. All I needed to type in to my search criteria was the job title and the first candidate that came up I called and placed within two days. Although there are probably a lot more features available in the search criteria that I don't know about I cannot fault the system. In the first two weeks of use I made two placements and obtained three or four other quality candidates off the system.

Within a month of using LinkMe I placed a Senior Account Manager into a role with one of my clients. I had contacted this person directly from the LinkMe database and after an interview with me and two with my client the candidate was offered a role which was accepted. This role had a salary package of over $100K so we were very happy to have proof that the product works.

Also it is worthy to note that we have experienced a 400% ROI of LinkMe within the first 3 months. The candidates are motivated and it means we don't spend as much on seek etc... so thanks.
