What is Copilot, and when should recruiters use it?

Copilot helps recruiters start a new role with a prioritized shortlist instead of building a search from scratch. It pulls from the channels you already use, then surfaces candidates with the most relevant fit and context so teams can move to outreach sooner.

Where do Copilot recommendations come from?

Copilot can pull from inbound applicants, your ATS, your CRM, referrals and employee connections, alumni, and external sourcing sources. Results are shown in one view so recruiters can compare channels without switching tools.

How does Copilot prioritize candidates?

Copilot considers role match and channel context. That includes factors like prior applications, existing engagement, CRM history, and shared connections. Recruiters can review and adjust search criteria at any time to shift what Copilot looks for.

Can recruiters edit the search criteria or use Boolean?

Yes. Copilot generates initial criteria from the job description, but recruiters can refine titles, skills, keywords, and experience requirements. If your team uses Boolean, you can review or edit strings as needed.

What does “Verified” mean on a candidate profile?

“Verified” indicates the profile has been checked for current, reliable contact information and refreshed data. It is meant to reduce time spent chasing stale details and help recruiters reach candidates with more confidence.

Findem Extension: For recruiters and sourcers

When you visit a LinkedIn profile, the Findem Extension surfaces that candidate's enriched Findem profile alongside it: contact information, full career history, Success Signals, and which active search they belong to. Shortlist them, start outreach, or build a lookalike search — without leaving LinkedIn.

Getro Contact Sync: For fund and network teams

The Getro Contact Sync extension adds every LinkedIn profile you visit to your fund's centralized contact database — tagged, noted, and immediately searchable by every partner on your team. When a founder needs an intro, you see which team member has the real connection and can route it in one step rather than posting in Slack and waiting for replies.

Frequently asked questions.

If you're a recruiter or sourcer using Findem to find and engage candidates, install the Findem Extension. If you're a platform or value creation team at a fund using Getro to manage your network and route introductions, install the Getro Contact Sync extension. Some teams use both.

LinkedIn is the primary surface, but the extension also works on GitHub, Wellfound, Stack Overflow, Crunchbase, Dribbble, Behance, Google Scholar, Kaggle, LeetCode, Quora, X, Xing, and several others. Wherever a candidate profile exists, the extension surfaces what Findem knows about them.

Yes. Every LinkedIn profile you visit while the Findem Extension is active triggers a profile data refresh in Findem. That keeps the candidate's contact information, career history, and signals current without any manual update step.

LinkedIn may temporarily restrict accounts that open a high volume of profiles in a short window — the extension can contribute to that pattern. Opening candidates one at a time using the Next button inside the extension, rather than rapidly opening many tabs, reduces that risk. If LinkedIn does restrict your account, stop the activity, follow LinkedIn's on-screen instructions, and contact Findem Support if LinkedIn asks for information about tools in use.

Yes. The extension works across both LinkedIn free accounts and LinkedIn Recruiter accounts.

Getro acts as the sole data processor for contact information synced through the extension. You control what gets shared outside your fund, email data can stay private when sharing lists externally, and all personally identifiable information is handled in compliance with GDPR and CCPA.

Only if your role touches both workflows. A platform team member at a VC fund who also runs sourcing searches for portfolio companies might use both. Most users need one or the other based on their primary job.
