Searching on LinkedIn will no longer have to be done separately for people, companies or jobs. They have been unified.
A post on the LinkedIn blog read: “All you need to do is type what you’re looking for into the search box and you’ll see a comprehensive page of results that pulls content from all across LinkedIn including people, jobs, groups and companies.”
Around 5.7 billion “professionally oriented” searches were carried out on the site last year and the network has also added auto-complete, suggested searches and enhanced advanced search.
Users will also be able to save their searches and receive automated alerts when the results change.
