LinkedIn is introducing two features that will help both job seekers and hirers fully engage with the power of their platform.
- The #social hiring feature will notify members when a first- or second-degree connection is hiring for a relevant job. When a network connection posts a relevant job on LinkedIn or adds a #hiring frame to their profile picture, LinkedIn will notify the job seeker. From there, job seekers will be able to view open jobs that people in their network are hiring for.
- When a member clicks on the job’s details page, they will see the “Meet the Hiring Team” feature. Members will be able to connect and message the entire team listed in this section, including the job poster.
