Great LinkedIn Feature for Job Seekers
I discovered this while knee-deep in my own search for my “Next Big Thing”™️… seems like something that could benefit a lot of us right now:
LinkedIn has a little known feature that change how you search for new roles. With this feature, we as job seekers can now express interest in working for a company without having to apply for a specific role. This makes it easier for job seekers to connect with a desired company, without having to wait for that perfect role to be posted and hope your triggered alerts show you in time!
This LinkedIn feature is a game-changer for job seekers, and hiring teams alike, as it provides a fast and efficient way for both parties to connect with one another. By using this feature, job seekers can show their interest in a company, without having to go through the arduous process of applying for a specific role. It also makes it easier for hiring teams to find qualified candidates for open positions.
To use this feature:
- Visit the “About” tab on a company’s LinkedIn page
- Click the “I’m interested” button.
- Once you’ve done so, recruiters at the company will be able to view your profile when searching for interested candidates within the LinkedIn Recruiter view.
I think this new feature is a great way for job seekers to get our foot in the door at a company we’re very interested in working for. It also makes it easier for hiring teams to find qualified candidates for open positions.
So if you’re currently on the job hunt like me, be sure to check out this feature on your favourite company’s LinkedIn page and see if they’ve got it enabled!
