Frequently asked questions

All the questions, detailed answers.

01. What does a LinkedIn Recruiter training with PAT cost?

The training is sold in combos, not as standalone modules. Three combos available. Inter-company (per person): 850 CHF for Modules 1 + 2, 950 CHF for Modules 2 + 3, 1,350 CHF for the full trilogy. In-house (per session, up to 12 people): 6,500 CHF for Modules 1 + 2, 7,500 CHF for Modules 2 + 3, 10,500 CHF for the trilogy. Module 1 is also available alone in VOD at 400 CHF, immediate access.

02. Can PAT be funded by OPCO or CPF?

PAT is delivered by Gates Solutions Sàrl, a Swiss company. CPF isn't possible — it's a French scheme. For OPCO, some companies manage to get the training covered, but the training department builds the file, not me. I provide every necessary supporting document (detailed program, attestations, quotes).

03. How long until you're actually good at LinkedIn sourcing?

The training itself runs 7 to 10 hours depending on the combo. Real mastery comes after, by systematically applying the method on daily searches for 4 to 8 weeks. The 2-month replay lets you come back to concepts on real searches.

04. What's the difference between the three modules?

Module 1 · Strategic Design (3h30). Everything upstream of sourcing: pedestrian street theory, attraction channels, intake meeting, outreach messages, AI in TA. No Recruiter needed. Module 2 · Tactical Search (3h30). The search technique inside Recruiter: foundational fields, internal AI, operators, keywords, market mapping. Module 3 · Legendary Mode (3h). Expert level: hidden fields, undocumented operators, exhaustiveness, profiles outside Open to Work. For intensive sourcers.

05. Does the training work with a Recruiter Lite license?

Yes. Recruiter Corporate, RPS and Lite are all eligible. A few specific features (full Talent Insights, certain reports) are missing in Lite, but the search technique, hidden operators and methodology work identically.

06. How does the two-month replay work?

The remote session is recorded, edited and indexed by chapter. You receive platform access within 48 hours after the session. You come back to it as much as you want for two months. The replay is the central argument for the remote format: the material is dense, you don't absorb it all in one pass, and everyone moves at their own pace on their own real searches.

07. What's the maximum group size for in-house?

12 people max per in-house session to preserve interaction quality and the ability to work on real cases from everyone's searches. Beyond that, we split into 2 sessions. The in-house price is a flat fee — up to 12 people, it's the same price.

08. French or English training?

Both. The three modules are delivered in FR or EN depending on your team. Several international bootcamps have already run in English for TA teams in Europe and the United States. For a mixed FR/EN team, we pick the language the team absorbs best in, and written material exists in both languages.

09. Is there a badge or certificate at the end?

Yes, both. A named completion certificate, and a LinkedIn badge to display on your profile. The badge is public, verifiable, and connects you to other trained people (the community stays small and identifiable).

10. How do I check the quality before committing my team?

Three ways: Take Module 1 in VOD (400 CHF) to judge the method from the inside. Ask trained recruiters around you: the LinkedIn badge is public. Book a 20-min scoping call with me, where we look at your team and your typical searches. I'd rather we talk before you commit an in-house budget. Not to sell, but so we can validate together that it's the right format.

11. Is the training officially state-recognized?

No state certification at the moment. The platform is international, getting state recognitions in each country is complex and changes nothing about the content quality. The LinkedIn badge and completion certificate are the proofs usable in practice, and reputation is verified directly with the people who have been trained.

12. What concrete return can be expected?

Hard to promise in numbers because it depends on the team and the quality of application. Concretely, what we observe: More exhaustive searches, talent pools 3 to 10× deeper on existing searches. Onboardings going from several months to a few weeks for newcomers. A shared method that survives turnover: practices keep improving after the training.
