With the help of LinkedIn and some great recruiters, it has connected me with an amazing opportunity I could never have imagined to have found, especially in the year 2020!”ĭanielle Turner shared an #OpenToWork story on LinkedIn about her job search and asked her network for help connecting her to roles in the Underwriting field. Roslyn Wint told us: “I have been truly inspired by so many stories since using the #OpenToWork tool. It’s really helpful to have conversations with those sharing your experiences and be able to trade tips, contacts, and stories.” Another, perhaps unintended, benefit of the #OpenToWork feature is the ability to lend support to others looking for work. Jefferson Negus told us: “Making my network, and those looking for talent, aware of my situation gives me the transparency to have great conversations without people wondering what’s up with me. Here are a few examples of people successfully leveraging the feature: Early results show that members who choose to add a public #OpenToWork photo frame are 20% more likely to receive messages from their community. If you choose to let the broader LinkedIn community know that you’re open to new jobs by adding an #OpenToWork photo frame to your profile photo, when someone sees your profile photo on LinkedIn (for example, when you post to your feed or show up in a search result), they’ll know you’re open to new opportunities and can connect you to open jobs they know of. #OpenToWork Connects You to People Who Can Help More than three million members have chosen to add a public #OpenToWork photo frame since launching in June, and our data show that they are, on average, 40% more likely to receive InMails from recruiters. Applying early can increase your chances of hearing back by up to 4X. This will also improve your job recommendations and turn on job alerts matching your preferences, enabling you to be one of the first to apply when a relevant job is posted. When using the #OpenToWork feature, you can specify the types of jobs you’re interested in (job titles, remote location, start date and job type).
That means twice as many job opportunities.
Our data shows that turning on Open to Work on your LinkedIn profile increases your likelihood of getting a recruiter message by 2X. Our #OpenToWork feature gives job seekers the option to share their career preferences and indicate they are open to new opportunities, either privately to recruiters or to the broader LinkedIn community through a simple LinkedIn profile photo frame.
#OpenToWork Increases Your Likelihood of Hearing from a Recruiter Here’s what our data and our latest survey reveal:
In fact, when we surveyed hiring managers, nearly all (96%) said they would hire a candidate who was laid off due to the COVID-19 pandemic. Results in our data and feedback from hiring managers suggests it does not. I often get asked if being unemployed positions job seekers unfavorably compared to those currently in a role.
#Show recruiters you re open to job opportunities linkedin update
Earlier this year, we introduced an update to our #OpenToWork feature, making it easy for job seekers to indicate to the broader LinkedIn community of more than 722 million professionals that they are open to new opportunities through a simple LinkedIn profile photo frame. Thousands of people are asking for help and their community is responding by offering advice and resources, making connections and sharing job listings. According to a recent survey we conducted, 84% of people would be willing to help someone in their network who has lost their job due to COVID-19 find a new role.* It’s no secret that we’re facing a challenging job market, but the good news is people want to help members of their community who are looking for work.
