Ignoring these 3 LinkedIn features can cost you Interviews


Let recruiters know you're interested


The “I'm interested” feature lets you indicate interest in working with a specific company by heading to their LinkedIn Company Page and clicking “I'm interested.” Once you click “I'm interested, your profile and information are privately shared with the recruiters at the company so they can keep you in mind for future opportunities. 

 

This is one way to get notified about roles before they're ever posted online for the masses. It also helps recruiters build a pipeline of potential candidates who are likely to respond if they reach out about an opening. 

 

Share your resume with all recruiters


Another great job seeker-friendly feature is “Share your resume with all recruiters.” This feature lets the additional information in your saved resumes on LinkedIn be shared with all recruiters. So, let's say not everything from your resume is on your LinkedIn profile — which is perfectly normal because your LinkedIn profile isn't designed to replicate your resume. Any info on the resumes saved to your LinkedIn profile can then be shared with recruiters, which increases your chances of getting noticed. 

 

This feature is another way to optimize yourself for visibility and searchability on the platform. 

 

It's easy to access this feature. Go to the Jobs tab, and on the left side, you'll see Application Settings. Click it. The screen below pops up. All you need to do is toggle the feature on.

 

Label a job as your “Top Choice.”


If you have LinkedIn Premium, then you're able to select up to three positions as your Top Choice. Adding “Top Choice” for a position puts a badge on your application so that the recruiter can see you selected this job as one of your top three positions. It signifies the importance the role holds for you, letting the recruiter know you're more likely to respond if they reach out to you about the role and you consider it an ideal role for you. Yet another way LinkedIn has offered job seekers who have Premium a way to stand out to recruiters.
