LinkedIn Further Mobilizes Candidates and Recruiters – Meet Mobile Work With Us and Recruiter Mobile

People are more mobile than ever before. Yet recruiters like you, and the recruiting process, are still chained to the desktop. That has made it painstakingly difficult for candidates to search for, discover and apply for jobs via mobile. It has also limited your productivity because you can’t interact with candidates and hiring managers while on the go.

About 33% of members visit LinkedIn from mobile. Plus, more than 30% of LinkedIn job views come from mobile and half of members who’ve applied via mobile for jobs posted on LinkedIn have never applied from their desktop. That’s why we’ve focused on making it easy for members to discover jobs on mobile via search and Sponsored Jobs in the feed and immediately apply simply using their profiles.

But we’re far from done, and recruiters like you are far from mobile. That’s why I’m excited to share that today at Talent Connect Las Vegas we unveiled two products that make it even easier for candidates to discover your jobs via mobile and increase your productivity while you’re away from your desk: Mobile Work With Us and Recruiter Mobile.

Mobile Work With Us

One of the best ways to reach passive candidates is Work With Us, which lets you showcase your job openings on your employees’ profiles. Since the most popular thing to do on LinkedIn is viewing member profiles and people love working with people they know, Work With Us is a powerful way to turn your employees into brand ambassadors.

Mobile Work With Us simply extends all that goodness to mobile. The ads will appear in a place that’s sure to drive lots of engagement – atop members’ profiles. Now whenever someone looks at the mobile profiles of your employees, they’ll see relevant jobs at your company, which makes it even easier for candidates to discover your jobs and helps extend the mobile footprint of your company’s talent brand. Here what Mobile Work With Us looks like:

And best yet, we’re just getting started!
