Totally disagree....I have literally hired dozens of people, been hired myself about 25 times over my career....not one through LinkedIn.
Human Remains at the companies I have worked for over the years **at most** use it for a resume check, but even then, most candidates submit fresh resumes.
Its not reliable as people self-present, any ad you put out there literally gets hundreds of applications almost entirely by people without any relevant qualifications, its more work to wade through the crap on LinkedIn than it is to just post on your company website and, much more successfully, use the internal staff networks to bring forward recommendations.
It had a place at one time, but like everything Microsoft touches, it turns to **** pretty fast.
