Anyone else confused by LinkedIn jobs new search feature? I went to go help a friend find a role and the search bar just says "Describe the job you want". No more location options, no industry selection-- just type area. It seems extremely vague and nebulous when job searching is such a finite process.

Has anyone else been job searching recently on linkedin and what are your thoughts on this?

I was job searching for remote roles on LI and found a good match. The only catch was that it was actually a hybrid role, and you had to be on-site 5 days out of the week. Needless to say, I haven’t been back on there in a while, out of how frustrated I was.

I haven't tried it since that began, but now I'm really curious and a little horrified. I prefer to manage my own searches. The idea that some AI gadget can focus my search just seems absurd. I'm guessing there must be some way to override that, but knowing LinkedIn, that's probably buried several menus deep.

I noticed that a few months back, maybe. You can still search/filter by location and company, but it's nested under advanced filters/options.

It seems like their goal was to try to simplify the process, but I'm not sure if that's how most users feel about the changes.

I just went on LinkedIn on my phone and I still have a job type + location search option, so maybe what you’re describing is desktop only? Or being slowly rolled out? Mine looks the same as it’s always been. I can’t imagine trying to job search without being specific about the location

Its beta stage so that makes sense. This is what I see!

Ive seen it present differently in a couple different views. Desktop was much better than mobile for me, i found some of the features and filters hard to find in the new set up

I accepted a $115K base salary, 13% bonus, 10k sign on bonus (scientist supervisor) job and two weeks later, got a $135K base, 17% bonus, and 15K sign on bonus (Senior scientist role) offer from another company. Should I accept the new offer ? How do I tell the previous company about this? Also, I’ve already negotiated with the first company and the $115K base is the negotiated salary. I really do not prefer one company over the other. They’re both great! I’m very confused here. TIA🙏

“Bad news, we’ve had to eliminate the position that we were supposed to finalize your promotion to. Good news, your current position is still available and the prestige of your current role is now increased”
Not the money, not the title, bonus or anything, but oh the prestige.

Hi Fishes,

In initial screening HR told the generic statement of 30-40% and I have given my ask as 50% minimum. After clearing the rounds I heard from the project team that Client has given great feedback and wanted to take me in .
What is the % I can ask in HR Discussion and will they reject in HR if I ask more now .
