If you are looking for a job and you use LinkedIn -the most widely used professional social network in the world, with more than 850 million accounts created- surely when you see a job offer that interests you, you notice who has published it and, possibly, check his profile.

In principle, it will be a function reserved for LinkedIn Premium users.

You might even make a contact request to that person, hoping you can explain why you’re the right person for the job they’ve offered or, if it doesn’t at least start a conversation, that they can look at the information. that you have published on your profile and, perhaps, contact you for a job interview.

There are those who even go further and, when they see a job offer that interests them, they search for company employees on LinkedIn, preferably from the Human Resources department, to request contact or be able to speak with them and express their interest in the position. offered.

Well, to facilitate this task, LinkedIn is going to launch a new section in the job offers that are published which will be called «Meet the hiring team» (i.e. “meet the hiring team”, in English).

Thanks to this new functionality, in addition to showing the person who published the job offer (generally the head of selection or head of human resources), the profiles of the people in the team in charge of the selection process will also be displayed, which will facilitate the be able to contact them without having to search for them.

This is a very interesting feature for job seekers on LinkedIn, which is currently in the testing phase. Although LinkedIn has not confirmed it, in the screenshot that it has distributed of the test, the “premium” logo can be seen, which means that it will be a function reserved for those who have LinkedIn Premium. That is, only those who pay to have extra features will be able to see the members of the selection team.
