However, they tend to become less visible over time. Once a certain number of candidates apply for the job, the post is removed from the search results.<\/p>\n<p>This lowers your chance of reaching highly-qualified professionals. To improve your hiring experience, you are encouraged to use promoted job posts. They always appear on top of search results and job recommendations list.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Post_a_Job_For_Free_On_LinkedIn\"><\/span>How To Post a Job For Free On LinkedIn?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Want to post a job for free on LinkedIn?

You can also use pre-written screening questions generated by LinkedIn based on your job description.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5\"><\/span>Step 5<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Tap <strong>Post Job for Free. <\/strong><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_practices_for_posting_a_job_on_LinkedIn\"><\/span>Best practices for posting a job on LinkedIn<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To make your post more attractive to the brightest minds on LinkedIn, you should implement in it a list of best practices.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Improve_your_LinkedIn_company_page\"><\/span>1.

Create a description of your company, emphasizing its visions, values and accomplishments.<\/p>\n<p>Link your website to the LinkedIn page to help applicants get a better understanding of your business. Post videos, photos, updates, news on regular basis to make sure your followers don&#8217;t lose interest for your page.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Make_your_job_post_engaging\"><\/span>2. Make your job post engaging<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>Try to make your job post as engaging and detailed as possible. Describe the job in close detail, specifying the skills the applicants must have. Make it clear whether you want the candidates to send a resume.<\/p>\n<p>If you want the candidates to prove their skills, include a LinkedIn Skills Assessment query into the job post. Add keywords into the job description such as industries and job functions. Also, add the exact address of the company so that applicants can determine how much time it will take them to commute from home to the office.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Set_a_budget\"><\/span>3. Set a budget<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p>To come across more relevant candidates, use promoted job posts.

You should think twice and consider using the more effective promoted post. Unlike free job posts, promoted jobs are charged. You pay based on the pay-per-click model.<\/p>\n<p>What do you receive instead? A promoted post boasts better visibility in the search results and a broader reach to qualified professionals. It is expected to be seen by 3 times as many LinkedIn members as a free post.<\/p>\n<p>The job will also appear on top of the recommendations list of the most skilled workforce. This increases the chance of them taking a look at your job offer. Moreover, promoted posts come with a smart notification system.<\/p>\n<p>You will receive instant alerts when professionals who suit your job requirements apply for the role. In this way, you are unlikely to respond to the application too late. The candidates will also receive notifications about your job when it pops up in their recommendations list.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Job posts help you find employees on LinkedIn.
