### "Give some to get some"

November 17, 2025

5.0

Overall 4.5/5 There are way worse and you have the brand recognition going for you so offer more services for less... it's about giving back. Giving starts the process of receiving .

Pros

Value for Money - free would be better, don't like how you advertise free for a month - take cc then charge Customer Support - No exp Ease of Use - 4/5, finding what I want within in my profile I find a challenge Employee Management - NA Features - 5/5 Recruitment Process - NA - used in the past - Very Good Profile Management - Very good

Cons

The cost, and inability to dive deeper on freemium. It would be better to open more services on that model than requiring payment.

### "My fantastic experience with the largest Professional Social Network."

February 27, 2025

5.0

I have excellent experience with LinkedIn. I've even managed to get several jobs through him and I can only be grateful for that. It was a fantastic experience I would say.

Pros

Excellent app/website for looking for job opportunities whether in-person, hybrid or home office. Being an important professional and intuitive Social Network with a lot of information.

Cons

The downside would be the issue of having greater visibility only in the premium plans, but I know that the platform needs to have an income on top of all this to maintain its proper functioning.

### "LinkedIn - thank you"

December 27, 2025

5.0

Overall I am very happy with LinkedIn and feel it is a incredible resource for networking and keeping in touch with old coworkers.

Pros

Hi, I know that Linked In is always there if I ever lose my job or am actively looking for a new job. Being connected it important.

Cons

I don't like how the user can see who is looking at their profile. Sometimes you want to look at profiles in private.

July 22, 2025

I use it as a go to whenever I'm interested in changing my current situation whether passively or actively

Pros

It's relatively easy to perform a filtered search and then after checking out on job it will recommend similar jobs

Cons

I can't to an "or" search for multiple terms. Or at least I don't know how to do it. And it's not always obvious which location type you are searching for.

5.0

Pros

LinkedIn Jobs is the most used job Board, Thanks to LinkedIn I got my job

For more chances to get a better job based on your profile, you need to pay 35 dollars as monthly subscription, also, with the new AI era, there are more options that can help you find a job, also creating a good CV to any platform or company request.

Not a good experience since all postings are fake.

### "A simplified review of LinkedIn"

February 11, 2022

4.0

It's a great experience for me on LinkedIn, I made an online application and making contacts with LinkedIn society, I also had a number of courses, It was very useful to me that I have gained knowledge, skills and experiences too.

Pros

LinkedIn has combined many features that were unique to many applications separately previously, making it a comprehensive application for sharing experiences and cultures and a platform full of jobs, courses and skills development with many other features that everyone should discover.

Cons

The quality of profile matching with functions should be thoroughly improved, as well as multiple app themes and a service search feature placed near the current location.

I found that Lenkin gathered for me everything I need to develop myself from several destinations, and contacting a very distinct society that represents an upgrade of the mentality and helps discover other cultures, I strongly advise students and those seeking career or professional development opportunities, as well as advice to all employers, organizations, companies and other entities and institutions.

### ""The Impact of LinkedIn Jobs' Multiple Employer Profiles on Recruitment and Branding""

June 17, 2024

5.0

Overall, the experience of using LinkedIn Jobs is generally positive. It provides access to a vast pool of professionals and offers targeted job postings. The platform's detailed candidate profiles make it easier to assess qualifications, and its networking features allow for engagement with potential candidates. While there are some drawbacks such as cost and competition, LinkedIn Jobs remains a valuable tool for recruiting top talent.

Pros

LinkedIn Jobs is a powerful platform for recruiting top talent. It offers access to a vast network of professionals, including passive candidates. With detailed candidate profiles, recruiters can assess qualifications effectively. The platform also fosters engagement and networking, allowing recruiters to build relationships for future hiring. Additionally, LinkedIn promotes employer brands and provides insights through analytics for data-driven recruitment strategies.

Cons

Cost can be prohibitive, especially for small businesses. Competition for talent is fierce, and reaching candidates in certain industries or regions may be challenging. Some profiles are incomplete or outdated, complicating candidate assessment. Over-reliance on technology may overlook qualified candidates not active online. Privacy concerns exist regarding unintentional disclosure of sensitive hiring information.

### "The best Job search and productivity platform ever"

November 19, 2019

5.0

I love this platform, it has been and is a great tool for a better working and productive professional career.

Pros

The best application regarding social networks. Apart from being very user friendly, here are points that makes me so like this unique application: - LinkedIn Jobs create real business networks with similar interests: Because of LinkedIn Jobs, I have been able to link up with people with similar interests and from there I have had several opportunities to learn from this networks and encouraged to upgrade my profile by working hard. Also, LinkedIn Jobs gave me the opportunity to follow "my dream company" and experts in my field, from here I have had updates on what is happening in the industry, new technologies/their relevance and how to implement them. - With LinkedIn Jobs, learning is round the clock: From the networks and companies I follow, I have had the possibility to attend free educational conferences, discussion sessions with good companies and professionals in the field. Not forgetting great articles available to read. - This platform has created a great way for me to stay in touch with old and new coworkers!! -I do appreciate the notification functionality because it gives up to date on happenings about my networks, who viewed my profile (profile impact) and available jobs with regards to my interest - One thing I also love about this platform is they are very vigilant and eager to resolve any issues or inculcate new suggestions (works continuously on improving and updating the platform for user accessibility). - Possibilities to have instant chats with networks

Cons

\-The white and blue colors for the platform is amazing but not as good at night. If a night vision is possible then it will be great!!!

### "LinkedIn Jobs is one of the best platforms to connect the right employers or companies to employees"

October 10, 2021

4.0

Linkedin jobs is still one of the best places to find jobs as you meet the right people. I will recommend linked in as you will possible get what you want

Pros

First, LinkedIn connects you a large audience professionals. Employers can easily find the appropriate match for what ever they are looking for. Here you find people who are most qualified for a particular position or role in terms of knowledge, experience and leadership. You can also join groups including people who are related to you by profession and skills. When you follow a company or an employer, you get notified if there exist any available job openings. You can also research on companies in linkedin before submitting an application or preparing for a job interview

Cons

Even though it is a great platform to meet with potential employers or companies, but not all employers use this platform, hence most information on this platform may be outdated. Also, most people seeking to meet potential employers or companies prefer other job-search based sites. In a nut shell, Linkedin has fewer users and popularity than one should expect

### "A must-use software that makes hiring a breeze"

December 6, 2021

5.0

I used LinkedIn jobs to find applicants for a research assistant position. This was my first time using LinkedIn jobs for a job posting and honestly, I've never had a better experience searching for an employee. I highly recommend this software because it makes the whole process incredibly easy. The layout, matching engine, and ease of use is just unparalleled.

Pros

LinkedIn jobs made the posting, screening, and interviewing processes so easy, it was almost too good to be true. The layout, matching engine, and price are all exceptional. I really can't imaging how to go about posting jobs without LinkedIn jobs.

Cons

While the matching engine is exceptional amongst job posting websites, it still needs improvement to sort through applicants that have a similar background. It did take a lot of time sorting out applicants that have a similar background. The matching engine is still state of the art though.

### "Let it sink in, Then I bet you choose LinkedIn "

January 21, 2022

5.0

Pros

They give you more for your search preferences and they stand to lead the competition in job matching with nonstop emails to select from.

Cons

A lot of features they present is in the same category as competitors which might make you lean towards other software. All I can say is do some extensive homework to see what you like and dislike first.

### "Best app for job seekers"

September 13, 2022

4.0

My overall experience with Linkedin Jobs is excellent.

Pros

The best thing about linkedin is that it is easy and convenient to use. Also, the user interface is quite simple. Another good thing about linkedin is that we get relevant job updates after updating our profile. Also, we can turn on job notifications for specific companies by going to the company page. Also, the chat feature is excellent and comes in handy most of the time. Another useful thing that we can do in Linkedin is that we can subscribe to newsletters and most of them are interesting to read. Linkedin is also beneficial for students who are seeking internships as many recruiters posts about intern openings. Hence, this app is beneficial for students, job-seekers and recruiters.

Cons

The thing I didn't like about Linkedin is that there aren't much features to track the job applications that an user had applied to.
