Introduction to the Resume Analyser and LinkedIn Plugin

In this article, we'll walk you through using AI resume analysis and the LinkedIn plugin. We'll start by exploring the AI analysis features for evaluating and selecting the most relevant applications. Then, we'll show you how to integrate the LinkedIn plugin to enrich your sourcing and identify talent directly on the platform.

Please note that AI analysis and the LinkedIn plugin are premium features.

Adding candidates via resumes

Integrating received resumes into the analyzer allows you to quickly extract information and thus create your candidates' profiles.

When you log into your account, click Add + in the top right corner, then click AI Insights.

1. In the window that opens, drop the desired resume(s). You can drop up to 20 files at a time. The .pdf, .doc, and .docx formats are supported.
2. Then click Parse with AI. You can perform other tasks while waiting for the analysis.
3. Once the analysis is complete, for each candidate, you'll see that certain information has been filled in for you and a summary has been generated. Click Expand to view the sections. If you'd like the detected information not to appear on the candidate's profile, click the Delete icon. The resume is also available to the right of the candidate's name (View file icon).
4. Under the Jobs section, you can add the candidate to an open position by clicking Assign.
5. Under the Skills section, you can view the detected skills and remove them as needed.
6. Under the Experience section, you can view the detected experience.
7. Under the Education section, you can view the detected diplomas and remove them as needed.
8. Under the Languages section, you can view the detected languages and remove them as needed.
9. When you're done, click Add candidate to the right of their name. The candidate's profile will be created and the candidate will be added to the position(s). You can also delete an analysis by clicking the trash icon. If you have added the candidate, deleting the analysis will also remove the candidate from the database.

Adding candidates via LinkedIn

Use your LinkedIn professional social network to import new profiles directly into Folks ATS. Imports are limited to 100 candidates per day. The Folks ATS LinkedIn plugin uses Unipile to allow recruiters to import candidates directly from LinkedIn with a single click.

1. Go to the Chrome Web Store to add the plugin to Google Chrome. You can also add the plugin on Edge 💡Tip: We recommend you pin it for easier access.
2. In LinkedIn, access the profile of a candidate you're interested in and open the plugin by clicking on the Folks ATS icon in the Chrome toolbar.
3. Once you’re logged in to Folks ATS, link your LinkedIn account if you haven’t already. You’ll need to enter the OTP code that was sent to you via email.
4. Once you’re logged in, the plugin will scroll through the candidate’s profile and fill in the information automatically. The candidate is identified based on LinkedIn URL, email address, first name, and last name. Note that LinkedIn restricts the display of email addresses to first-degree connections.

• If the candidate already exists in Folks, you’ll be able to edit and update their information (Update candidate). You can add or remove skills, view their ongoing processes and job history, assign them to a position, and add a note.
• If the candidate does not exist in Folks, you can add them to create a candidate profile in the database (Add candidate). You can also edit their information, select a consent request, assign the candidate to a job, and add a note.

If necessary, you can capture again by clicking the three-dot icon in case a profile has changed since the initial import (new relationship level, email address now visible, new job title). This will count toward your daily LinkedIn import limit.
