LinkedIn job posting template

With LinkedIn’s paid job postings, you can advertise your open roles, target your desired candidates and reach out to potential new hires. You could also give candidates the option to apply directly using information from their LinkedIn profiles to speed up the application process.

When you want to share an open position with your network for free, consider posting a status update on your company’s LinkedIn page. Your followers will view your job and may visit your careers page to learn more about it (and potentially apply) or even leave a comment to refer someone. Employees and hiring managers could also inform their network about an open role with a status update and help you reach a broader audience.

Here’s what to include in a LinkedIn job post:
