Hyperlink support in job descriptions

Last updated: 4 months ago

Job posters can now add hyperlinked text to their job posts to direct potential applicants to a company’s benefits page or other employer brand sites.

Important to know

This feature only applies to jobs posted with an enterprise account.

Jobs manually posted on Recruiter or ingested using Job Wrapping can now support hyperlinked text. 

  • To add a hyperlink when posting a job manually, highlight the text you want to link and click the Link icon within the job description formatting bar.
  • Ingested jobs featuring hyperlinks will import into LinkedIn as normal with the associated links supported through the ingestion process. 

As part of adding hyperlinks to job descriptions, we are removing the ability to underline text as a formatting option within job descriptions.This will improve the accessibility of job descriptions and remove any confusion of underlined text not being associated with a hyperlink.

Important to know

In accordance with LinkedIn's jobs policies, we reserve the right to reject, approve, or remove any job post for any reason, in our sole discretion, including those that may be using hyperlinks in a miscellaneous manner or directing toward invalid links.
