Updated over a year ago

The HeroHunt Chrome Extension is a powerful tool to turn your regular LinkedIn interface into an interface where you can easily transform profiles into hires.

With the HeroHunt Chrome Extension you can add candidates straight from LinkedIn to automated engage flows in HeroHunt.ai.

Once added to HeroHunt.ai, these potential candidates for your job will go through a set of automated steps like sending an automated personalized initial outreach message, sending follow up messages and adding them to your Applicant Tracking System (ATS) or CRM.

With the HeroHunt Browser Extension users can do the following:

  1. Add individual profiles to Engage (message sequences)

  2. Add multiple profiles at once to Engage (message sequences)

  3. Add an additional analytics layer on top of LinkedIn

1. Add an individual profile to Engage (message sequences)

When you hit ‘Add to Engage’ you can select the Engage flow you can to add the potential candidate to.

Based on their LinkedIn profile they will be added to the Engage flow in HeroHunt.ai, their verified email address will be found and they will receive the sequence of auto generated messages automatically.

2. Add multiple profiles at once to Engage (message sequences)

You can also add multiple candidates at the same time to a message sequence from the LinkedIn search page.

You simply do your search in LinkedIn, select the profiles you would like to add to the sequence and add them to the automated Engage flow in HeroHunt.ai.

3. Add an additional analytics layer on top of LinkedIn

LinkedIn without the HeroHunt Browser Extension is exactly just that, LinkedIn. But with the HeroHunt Browser Extension you can see additional information and analytics that help you understand quicker if a profile is interesting for your job or not.

For example, relevant keywords for the current position you are trying to fill are highlighted when they match on the candidates profile. This way you can quickly see where key skills are mentioned on the profile.
