Why post a job on LinkedIn?
Reach the right people
Create a job post in minutes and reach the largest pool of professionals. LinkedIn targets your jobs to relevant members — even if they’re not actively searching.
Find qualified matches
Get matched with the right candidates and prioritize the ones to interview. LinkedIn uses insights from your job post, your company, and our members to find the people you need.
Manage jobs with flexibility
Manage your jobs based on your hiring needs: Promote your priority and hard-to-fill roles to reach even more qualified candidates, faster.
How it works
Stand out to candidates with a strong job description. Use AI-assistance to create high-quality descriptions, more efficiently.
Target the right people. LinkedIn uses location, industry, skills, and years of experience to get your job in front of qualified people.
Attract qualified applicants. Use screening questions in your job posts to vet candidates for the skills you need.
Promote your jobs to target relevant job seekers across LinkedIn via job search results, personalized emails, the LinkedIn newsfeed, and mobile push notifications. Learn more.
Use the #Hiring feature to share that you're hiring on LinkedIn to attract more qualified candidates through your network.
Review the best matches. Filter, sort, and prioritize applicants. Rate applicants as a "good fit" and LinkedIn will recommend your job to similar people or surface recommended matches to you.
Confirm candidates meet your basic requirements at a glance. Easily see the applicants who meet them — and filter out those who don’t.
View job stats (views and applicants) on your job post’s details page. You’ll also get an email summary of your job post performance.
Reach out to applicants directly on LinkedIn: Start a conversation with an auto-filled template or a custom message.
