LinkedIn mobile app now supports on-the-go job applications

LinkedIn has announced new functionality for its service on mobile, giving users the chance to apply for jobs directly from their iOS or Android devices. This move comes after the addition of job and company searching to the mobile app, which was added in July.

Using this new search system, users can search for jobs across thousands of different opportunities, and save those jobs for later viewing or apply directly on the app. In cases where the company requires applying on its own website, users will be given a prompt to redirect there; otherwise, applicants can quickly review their LinkedIn profiles for accuracy and use the information there to apply.

This LinkedIn profile info can be used to replace lengthy resumes when applying on the phone.
