Lesson 3 of 6

Save candidates from LinkedIn and Naukri

The free browser extension adds a profile to your Olibr database in one click — no copy-pasting.

5 minbeginner

Recruiters spend hours copying profiles from LinkedIn and Naukri into spreadsheets. The Olibr – Candidate Capture extension does it in one click. Saving is free, and it works on Chrome, Edge and Brave.

Browser Extension in the sidebar has the install button and a step-by-step guide.

  1. 1
    Install it

    In Olibr, open Browser Extension and click Install from Chrome Web Store. Then click Add to Chrome → Add extension.

  2. 2
    Pin it

    Click the puzzle-piece icon in your browser's toolbar and click the pin next to Olibr – Candidate Capture, so it's always one click away.

  3. 3
    Connect it to Olibr

    Click the Olibr icon, then Connect to Olibr. A tab opens and closes on its own. You stay connected for 30 days.

  4. 4
    Save a candidate

    Open a LinkedIn profile or a Naukri Resdex candidate, click the Olibr icon, check the details and click Save as Candidate. They're now in your Candidates list.

Good to know

  • Open a person's profile first — search results pages can't be saved.
  • On Naukri you can switch on Auto-save Naukri profiles I open. It only saves profiles you open yourself; opening a profile still uses your own Naukri credits.
  • Fetch Email / Fetch Phone looks up contact details: ₹5 per email and ₹10 per phone found, and nothing if nothing is found.
  • If a candidate with the same email is already in your database, Olibr tells you instead of creating a duplicate.
Tip

Saved candidates count toward your monthly contribution when automatic contribution is on. A few minutes a day on LinkedIn covers it.
