LinkedIn Rolls Out New AI Features
In a newsroom afterLinkedIn announced a new feature that’s grouped under the platform’s AI-powered job experience. It’s currently only available in English, but the company said it will add more improvements in the future based on user feedback.
An AI-powered Jobseeker Coach, an integrated chatbot, is being added. The chatbot can search for jobs based on simple text prompts. For example, users can type, “Find me a cybersecurity job within my network” or “Find me a UI/UX designer job in Bengaluru that pays at least Rs. 10 lakh per annum,” and the AI will search through its database to make helpful suggestions. Users can also use it to implement ways to stand out in search results.
LinkedIn is also adding a tool that can review users’ applications and resumes to help them stand out. The AI will provide constructive feedback and personalized suggestions that can be tailored to specific job openings. Additionally, the tool will also help improve the cover letter by providing recommendations that can be manually reviewed and edited.
The platform is also adding a number of tools to help professionals get advice and learn new skills. Expert advice is a new feature that will allow LinkedIn Premium users to get personalized advice from business leaders and coaches. These AI bots are trained by real experts, the company claims.
Finally, a personalized coaching feature will help users as they take new courses on the platform. They can ask for a summary of the content, clarification on certain topics, or real-time insights and examples. While LinkedIn has started rolling out the feature to users, it may take a few days for it to be visible to everyone.
