Q: Where can I use the SeekOut Chrome Extension?
The SeekOut Chrome Extension currently works with profiles from LinkedIn, LinkedIn Recruiter, and Github.
Q: When I click the extension icon I don't see enriched profile information.
Sometimes instead of seeing enriched profile information, you'll see the default message when you open the extension.
If this happens:
Make sure you're on a LinkedIn profile page, LI Recruiter profile, or GitHub profile page when you open the extension.
Ensure your browser and the extension are both up to date.
Sign out of your SeekOut account, then sign back in.
Relaunch Chrome.
If you continue to have issues with the extension after following these steps, contact us via live chat or email us at support@seekout.com for further assistance.
Q: I am not seeing enhanced Google search results. What's going on?
Ensure your browser and the extension are both up to date. Try beginning your Google search with this:
site:linkedin.com/in
Enter your search terms after this line. Your results should look similar to the screenshot below.
Q: What else can I do with a SeekOut subscription?
With a paid subscription to SeekOut, you can use our powerful search features and filters to source across hundreds of millions of candidates. See everything SeekOut has to offer here.
Q: Am I going to get blocked by using the SeekOut Chrome Extension?
No.
Your use of the SeekOut Chrome Extension is private. Websites you visit are not able to detect that you have the extension installed. This is important because some sites put you "in jail" if they see you are using other extensions on their site.
Your browsing history is private. The SeekOut Chrome Extension does not inspect any page or save anything about your browsing history that doesn't have to do with candidate profiles. If you visit a page other than a LinkedIn profile or Google Search, the extension doesn't look at that page or store the web address.
