# Save candidates from LinkedIn to your ATS with a click

Found a promising candidate? Open the Hice extension, review the profile and save the record. Add a CV and link the person to a search without making a PDF an obligatory first step.

## A practical request for your assistant

Example request: the response depends on the available records and the operations accessible to your user.

## Save a LinkedIn candidate, step by step

Open the LinkedIn profile you want to keep. Open the Hice extension and sign in, then choose to save a candidate. Review the preview: name, role, experience and other available information must belong to the right person. Complete required fields and confirm the save.

The operation concerns one profile at a time and starts with your choice. Browsing LinkedIn does not automatically collect lists. Once saved, the record is in your Hice database: add notes, a CV or a search link without retyping the profile from scratch.

## Link the candidate to the right search

Saving a person and submitting them to a search are different decisions. The database preserves the profile even when the current assignment ends. A search link adds context: which client request you are evaluating them for and what happens next.

Choose the search in the extension when the available context allows it, or complete the link in Hice. Always check the client and assignment. A general note should not replace the relationship: a structured link makes candidates, status and recruitment activities easier to retrieve.

## Attach a CV without losing the profile

A LinkedIn profile can create an initial record; a CV may add different details. If you already have the file, upload it through the extension's supported flow and associate it with the candidate. Check that it is the right document and that the profile preview describes the same person.

An attachment does not replace verification. After import, compare differences between the CV role and profile role. Preserve the document's source and complete only fields supported by it. For subsequent work, use the candidate record and its relationships.
