This course contains the use of artificial intelligence.
2,826 recruiting tools in one course: 2,240 ready-to-use files, search strings, prompts, templates and scorecards, 160 services and apps shown on screen, plus 426 models and methods.
Open a lecture, take the tool, use it in today's LinkedIn search, message or screening call.
Why LinkedIn searches return the same people to everyone
Every recruiter uses the same filters, sees the same first pages and writes to the same candidates. Those candidates stop answering. The people who would fit are on LinkedIn too, but they are not marked as open to work, their titles are unusual, and the standard search never reaches them. More InMails do not fix that. A different search does.
What changes after this course
You search differently and write better. Boolean and X-ray queries that find profiles the filters miss. Queries built around current company, tenure, title and language. Messages and sequences that get answers. Procedures for finding a contact when LinkedIn gives none. Prompts that draft the routine work. Then scorecards and question lists for screening the people you find, and metrics that show which searches pay off.
What is inside: 2,826 tools, counted file by file
You do not have to take this number on trust. Open any lecture and read its description: every tool inside is listed there by name.
Where the tools are
Who is teaching
I am Mike, the #1 HR instructor on Udemy, with 1,800,000+ course enrollments from 170,000 students, and the author of about 200 books on Amazon. I built the people system at Preply as it became a unicorn and worked at Wargaming, iDeals and Alfa-Bank across 20 years in HR. I hold PHRi, SHRM-CP and HCI sHRBP certifications and represent HRCI in Eastern Europe.
I have experienced LinkedIn as a channel for recruitment and for my own career. Wargaming found me there, wrote to me, and offered me a vacancy. iDeals also found me through LinkedIn and approached me about doing the same kind of work I was doing at Preply. These were opportunities that came to me through the network. This experience informs the profile and sourcing tools in this course.
How to use the course
Start with the first three sections on LinkedIn itself. Then treat the rest as a reference library. Section and lecture titles show how many tools are inside, and each lecture description lists them by name, so you can find the right tool for the role you are filling.
What is included
Where to start
Take one open role. Open the X-ray lecture, run two queries your filters would never produce, and write to five people with the message structure from the next lecture. Recruiters who find candidates others do not see fill roles faster, and every week on the same first page of results is a week of the same unanswered messages. Enrol now and start your first lesson today.
