Set Up the Apply With LinkedIn Integration

The Apply With LinkedIn integration allows LinkedIn users to apply for your Opportunities easily, using information they have already supplied in their LinkedIn user profile.

UKG Pro Recruiting automatically obtains the necessary credentials from LinkedIn: an API Key and a Secret Key.

Navigation: Settings > Integrations > LinkedIn > Apply With LinkedIn

In order to use the Apply With LinkedIn integration, your LinkedIn account must have a Recruiter license, or be associated with a LinkedIn posting account that has job slots.
  1. If you have not already obtained the API Key and Secret Key, select Obtain LinkedIn Credentials.

    Obtain LinkedIn Credentials button in Settings

    Note:

    If you have already obtained credentials, you will see the API Key and Secret Key values instead of the Obtain LinkedIn Credentials button.

    After you obtain the credentials, a LinkedIn widget appears in the Apply With LinkedIn section of the Settings page.
  2. If you are not already signed in to LinkedIn, sign in using the widget.
