In this article, we'll walk you through using the resume analyzer and LinkedIn plugin. We'll start by exploring the features of the resume analyzer to evaluate and select the most relevant candidates. Then we'll show you how to integrate the LinkedIn plugin to enrich your sourcing and identify talent directly on the platform.

Sourcing is the process of finding candidates with the ideal profile to fill a specific position.

Here are just a few of the benefits offered by Glow Talents:

  • Save considerable time in your recruitment process
  • Spend more time on research and analysis, not on data integration
  • Have qualified talent in your Glow Talents database

Read the instructions below to transform your recruitment approach.

Please note that the resume analyzer and LinkedIn plugin are premium features.

Adding candidates via CV

By integrating the resumes you receive into the analyzer, you can quickly extract the information you need to create the candidate's file.

Method 1

When you log in to your account, in the main menu, click Recruiting> Adding CV candidate(s).

  1. On the page that opens, you can add a CV by clicking the + icon or by dropping the CV in the gray area.
  2. Once the CV has been added, click Analyze. The CV will appear in the list of pending analyses.
  3. Under the Actions column, click the See resume icon.
  4. In the Create candidate profile window, you'll see the candidate's CV on the left and the candidate file information on the right. Some of this information has already been filled in for you, so all you need to do is complete it.
  5. In the Candidate section, the Targeted positions correspond to the positions for which the applicant is interested. This is the list of positions in the settings dashboard. You also have the option of sending a Request for consent to the candidate. To do this, select a template and specify an expiry date.
  6. Under the Address section, if the information is not filled in, click the Autofill icon.
  7. Under the Contact section, the information will be filled in if it appears on the CV. If necessary, click the purple icon to swap telephone numbers.
  8. Under the Skills section, some skills may have been detected automatically. You can also add skills by selecting them from the drop-down list or the suggestions. By selecting a suggestion, it will appear in the candidate's file and be created in the settings dashboard.
  9. Under the Diplomas section, if you want the detected diplomas to appear in the candidate's file, click the Add icon. You can add additional diplomas by clicking the Add an entry icon.
  10. Under the Experiences section, you can modify the information detected, add it to the candidate's file (Add icon) and add other experiences (Add an entry icon).
  11. Under the Positions section, you can add the candidate to an open position by clicking the + icon under the Add column in the job list.
  12. When you've finished, click on Submit. The candidate's file will be created and the candidate will be added to the position.

Method 2

You can also add a candidate via their CV by selecting them in the Web applications for the position to which they have applied (Recruiting > Requests > Position details > Web Candidates).

In the candidate's online registration form, click on Analyze CV and approve to open the resume analyzer and submit the candidate file for creation. Back in the web registration list, you can click on the + (Attach to application) icon under the Action column.

Adding candidates via LinkedIn

Use your LinkedIn professional social network to import new profiles directly into Glow Talents.

  1. If you haven't already done so, go to the Chrome Web Store to add the plugin to Google Chrome.  Type_light-bulb__Size_small.svg 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 Glow Talents icon in the Chrome toolbar. The plugin will scroll through the candidate's profile and fill in the information automatically.
  3. Clicking the + Add candidate button opens a new Glow Talents tab. Here you'll see the candidate's add form filled in with information from their LinkedIn profile.
  4. Once all the required information has been added, click Save to create the candidate's file in the database.

Search features

Glow Talents will suggest profiles that may match your positions by conducting a search based on the skills and strengths of all candidates in your database.
