This presentation explains how Comet, an AI assistant, automates and accelerates the entire sourcing process in LinkedIn Recruiter — from searching to screening and reaching out to candidates.
Purpose and overview of Comet
The slides introduce Comet as a thought partner that works inside your browser, automates repetitive tasks, and understands natural language commands. Comet can independently search, analyze, and approach candidates, saving hours of manual sourcing work every day.
Use in candidate sourcing
Examples show how Comet can find candidates in LinkedIn Recruiter — such as SEA specialists, customer service professionals, or senior software engineers with specific skills and locations. Comet opens LinkedIn Recruiter, applies the right filters, scrolls through results, collects candidate data, and saves relevant profiles into a project.
Profile analysis
Comet reads full profiles (experience, skills, education), evaluates the fit with the vacancy, identifies strengths and weaknesses, and generates short summaries. It can compare multiple candidates and deliver, for example, a shortlist of the top three matches for a specific role — including reasoning behind each choice.
Automated outreach
The presentation demonstrates how Comet creates personalized InMails, adjusts tone (formal, friendly, or casual), highlights relevant experience, and adds the job link. Comet can send these messages and follow-ups directly through LinkedIn — for instance, crafting and sending a unique, friendly message to the top 20 candidates, signed with “Kind regards, Gordon.”
Time savings and best practices
Clear time gains are presented: searching drops from hours to minutes, screening from tens of minutes to just a few, and outreach from one-by-one messages to dozens within 15 minutes — reducing a full day of sourcing to about 30 minutes. The closing slides share best practices: be specific, provide context and criteria, let Comet handle multiple steps at once, always review messages, and combine AI efficiency with human expertise. The final slide includes your contact details for recruitment support.
