How to Use Recruiting Copilot
1️⃣ In Chrome, navigate to a candidate's LinkedIn page
2️⃣ Click on the Dover logo which should surface on the right side of the page
Note: if you haven't used Recruiting Copilot since its most recent update (March 2023), you may need to allow the extension to access your downloads. Simply open the extension from the top toolbar in Chrome and follow the instructions to enable these permissions. Once you complete this please hard refresh the page (Ctrl/Cmd + shift + R).
It's also recommended to toggle "Auto Open" on in the extension's settings. This will ensure you don’t have to keep clicking to keep the extension open.

Can you share more about the extension's security settings? Is the extension able to read data other than LinkedIn profiles?
Can you share more about the extension's security settings? Is the extension able to read data other than LinkedIn profiles?
The Dover Extension is only active on LinkedIn pages. It does not have the ability to read data on other websites, nor can it see any other websites you're visiting. The data read by the extension is the LinkedIn profile page URL. We use that for email finding and for sourcing the candidate if you choose to reach out to them. If you're using the Extension to generate outreach content, the extension only reads the downloaded resume and not any of your other downloaded files.
Our philosophy is to use and collect the minimum amount of information to enhance your recruiting experience. We never share this data or use it outside the context of supporting you in making a hire!
