LinkedIn is still on a mission to persuade job hunters to apply for fewer roles. But the company is rolling out a new set of AI-powered upgrades to its job-searching features it hopes will make that prospect more appealing.
The company is introducing a revamped search tool that aims to make it easier for job seekers to find relevant roles. Up to now, LinkedIn's job search feature relied mostly on matching keywords. With the update, though, LinkedIn is ditching the keywords in favor of AI so its system is able to understand job listings on a much deeper level. This should, according to the company, allow job hunters to search postings using more natural language.
"Search used to be [a] very specific couple of boxes, and the box that really mattered was the box that said, ‘show me a title or a keyword or skill,' and you basically had to hope that you will find a title or keyword or skill that the system understands," LinkedIn product manager Rohan Rajiv explains. Now, though, he says, job searchers should be able to just "say what you want and the system will understand you."
That may sound like a subtle change but it's a potentially powerful one because it allows people to get much more specific with their queries. Users can still search for roles based on job tiles like "product manager" but LinkedIn will also be able to understand more complex searches like "business development roles in the video game industry."
As an extra layer of transparency, LinkedIn will also surface indicators when the company behind a given posting is actively reviewing applications. Premium subscribers will also get access to AI-powered "job coaching," with the ability to practice interview questions, pitches and other tasks.

While you can always clip your phone to a PlayStation or Xbox controller paired over Bluetooth, telescopic gamepads like the One tend to be more ergonomic, creating a Nintendo Switch-style shape by clamping around your device at both ends. Backbone is far from the only company making these things now, but the One is still among the most frequently recommended options on the market — Engadget's own Mat Smith gave it a
