they've unlocked the full potential of LinkedIn Recruiter. It's great to
hear so many stories about how Certification has helped teams make

Things Successful Test Takers Do
“Become a Projects and Talent Pipeline expert!
That was my least knowledgeable area before the
certification, and now is the most valuable part of
Recruiter for me.
- Peter Z.
“Take the training seriously and dedicate some
focused time to the curriculum that is outlined.
You'll find it incredibly useful in your
daily recruiting.”
- Melinda D.
“Focus on "Best Practices" of using LinkedIn
Recruiter. There are several ways of performing an
action in LinkedIn Recruiter, but the optimal way is
what you need to learn.”
- Vikas K.
“The exam is based on the entire recruiting
life cycle. Understanding how to effectively
search the network is just as important as
knowing how to post a job.”
- Emily B.
Frequently Asked Questions
​Your certification will be valid for two years after passing.
Even though there will be a change to the Recruiter tool,
the main subjects and objectives of the exam will remain
the same. Most of the existing certification exam
questions will remain relevant in the next generation of
Recruiter.
What happens to my certification with the
rollout of Next-Gen Recruiter?
Yes. While next-gen Recruiter will allow for efficient searching
without knowledge of Boolean modifiers, understanding how to
construct accurate Boolean search strings remains a
fundamental skill for all talent acquisition professionals.
Knowledge of Boolean modifiers may no longer be required to
perform an effective search, but test takers should have that
knowledge. Everyday knowledge of the tool will not be
sufficient to pass the exam. Truly advanced Recruiter users
will understand and leverage Boolean searching.
Next-Gen Recruiter seems to eliminate the need for Boolean
Search, will there still be questions about this?
​LinkedIn recognizes that while you may not currently be using job
postings or job slots, organizations must be able to react quickly
and flexibly to changing business needs. Requiring you to know
how to effectively display jobs to potential candidates ensures that
the LinkedIn Certified Professional—Recruiter certification will be
relevant in the overall recruiting industry as a foundational skill
set, now and in the future.
Not all recruiting organizations use LinkedIn job postings
or Recruiter job slots. Why are questions about these
capabilities included on the exam?
