I can't find my job ad on LinkedIn

Updated over 2 months ago

If you are using the free job posting feed and your ad is not appearing on LinkedIn, here are the potential reasons and how to resolve them.

Possible reasons for a missing ad:

  • Duplicate posting: The job is already published via your LinkedIn Premium account and is visible on your recruiter console.

  • Missing or invalid fields: Mandatory data is missing or incorrectly formatted.

  • Incorrect Company ID: Your LinkedIn Company ID is missing or wrong in the settings.

  • Employer Opt-out: The employer has opted out of job ingestion from third-party sites.

  • Spam or quality flags: Job postings must comply with LinkedIn's Professional Community Policies and integrity guidelines.

How to ensure your free feed ads are published:

  • Fill in all mandatory fields: Double-check that no required information is left blank.

  • Description length: Ensure job descriptions contain a minimum of 100 characters.

  • Clean up your feed: Minimize the number of expired or duplicate offers in your current list.

  • Identify the employer correctly: Always use the actual recruiting company name, not your own agency name or names of other job boards.

  • Be precise with location: Include as much geographic detail as possible (City, State/Region, Country).

For more information on mandatory fields or moderation policies, please reach out to your designated contact at LinkedIn.
