LinkedIn Jobs Offers a Better Read on How Well Job Seekers Meet Employers’ Expectations

Group product manager Vidya Chandra wrote in a blog post that people browsing LinkedIn Jobs will see the new How You Match section on the right-hand side of job listings, and the new feature will let them know how well their experience meshes with the criteria shared by employers.

Factors addressed by the How You Match checklist include education level, skills, years of experience and current job title.

LinkedIn Premium members will also be assigned an applicant rank, which will let them know if they in the top percentile of applicants for the position.
