LinkedIn launches AI-powered job search

Bengaluru, May 21 (UNI) In a move aimed at transforming the way professionals search for jobs, LinkedIn on Wednesday launched an AI-powered job discovery feature to help users articulate their career aspirations in their own words—even if they are unsure of job titles or industry classifications.
According to new research by LinkedIn, nearly 61 per cent of professionals in Bengaluru are open to new opportunities but struggle with knowing what to search for. The professional network’s latest offering, available to Premium subscribers, leverages generative AI to understand a job seeker's intent, skills, and goals, thereby simplifying the discovery of relevant opportunities.
“At a time when 80 per cent of Indian professionals are seeking better tools to assess job fit and career potential, our new AI-powered job search aims to provide them with greater confidence and clarity,” the company said in a statement.
The AI tool also enables access to new features like ‘My Career Journey’, a personalised upskilling path through LinkedIn Learning, and scenario-based role-play tools including interview preparation. Premium users will also benefit from Hiring Insights, which offer greater transparency into a recruiter’s activity and response trends.
LinkedIn’s India Senior Managing Editor and Career Expert, Nirajita Banerjee, shared key suggestions for job seekers: “Be strategic in your applications instead of mass applying. Get comfortable with AI, as it’s reshaping the future of work. Embrace adaptability, build your network, and don’t be afraid to explore. Today’s professionals are expected to change nearly twice as many jobs as those 15 years ago.”
She also recommended several free AI-related courses—such as *Job Hunting for College Grads* and *The Step-by-Step Guide to Rock Your Job Interview*—available until June 30 on LinkedIn Learning.
LinkedIn, which has over 1 billion members worldwide, continues to expand its vision of creating economic opportunity for every member of the global workforce through the development of the world’s first Economic Graph.
