May 23. (Portaltic/EP) –

LinkedIn has introduced a new system that verifies the authenticity of job offers posted on the platform and provides information to users on how they have been determined to be valid.

In this way, LinkedIn will show a section that gives direct access to a space in which it is indicated that a job offer has been verified and validated for publication.

This section will show if this offer belongs to the official page of the company that promotes it, which can be verified by verifying your corporate email or using Clear.

LinkedIn has commented that job posting verifications are starting to work, and as it expands access to its free verification tools, job seekers will find more postings with this badge.

The company has also recalled that in recent months it has introduced new ways to verify the professional accounts of the users, with the section ‘About this profile’, which indicates their creation date as well as if they have verified them with a telephone and an email.
