LinkedIn launches dedicated search filters for remote job opportunities

LinkedIn has added a new dashboard for service providers to help them keep track of their various queries and requests.

LinkedIn claims that 70 percent of job searches during the beta test of the feature included people looking for remote working options.

Microsoft-owned LinkedIn has introduced dedicated remote, hybrid and on-site search filters on the platform to cater to job seekers looking for remote work opportunities. Search filters will be available when using the job search and open to work features of social network platforms. Selecting the filter will remotely inform recruiters about the preferences of the candidates, the type of job they are looking for. A similar filter has also been introduced for company pages, allowing them to indicate their vaccine and return to office policies, reports TechCrunch.

linkedin It is claimed that 70 percent of job searches during the beta test of the feature included people looking for remote working options. Work from home culture, which came as a necessity during the COVID-19 pandemic, has shifted the priority of employees to remote work. Despite the reduction in the number of cases and a rapid vaccination drive, many employees are not ready to return to the office. These new search filters will target employees who are looking for opportunities to work remotely. In addition, LinkedIn has also introduced a new ‘Service Marketplace’ feature that will allow users to advertise themselves for short-term engagement to employers looking for this type of role engagement.

The Freelancer platform was first introduced in the USA in its beta version in February this year. The platform has expanded its base to 2 million users out of the roughly 800 million user base that LinkedIn has globally. The Service Marketplace will be operational for every LinkedIn user globally.

Additionally, the online social network platform has added a new dashboard for service providers to help them keep track of their various queries and requests. The dashboard has a ‘Review Status’ element that allows users to manage customer reviews on their service page.

LinkedIn, which gained nearly 25 million new users last quarter, is building an “economic graph.” The feature will also map how people engage in their professional relationships to gain a better understanding of the global economy. .
