LinkedIn is reimagining the job search experience with the introduction of AI-powered career discovery tools. The new update enables members to describe their dream role in plain language, with LinkedIn’s AI interpreting and matching those aspirations to real job opportunities – no need for technical terms or rigid filters.
The feature is designed to make job searching feel more like a conversation with a career advisor than a form to fill out. Whether someone says “I want to use marketing skills to cure cancer” or “Find me entry-level jobs in the gaming industry”, the system interprets the intent and delivers relevant options, even for roles users may not have known existed.
A Smarter, More Inclusive Job Search
This conversational job discovery is powered by LinkedIn’s Economic Graph and leverages large language models (LLMs) across the full search stack – from understanding queries to surfacing and ranking results. The goal: a deeper, more nuanced understanding of what job seekers are truly looking for.

LinkedIn describes it as a first step toward a more intuitive, inclusive, and empowering job-seeking journey – reflecting the platform’s broader strategy to embed intelligent systems across the user experience.
Enriched Job Listings and Member Insights
Alongside the new search interface, LinkedIn is enhancing job listings with more company verification details and estimated response times. Members will also start seeing how well they match a particular job, based on profile data and experience.
“Premium subscribers gain even deeper insights, including job match ratings and actionable suggestions for standing out in an increasingly competitive job market.”
Preparing with AI-Powered Coaching
In LinkedIn Learning, AI tools are being integrated into professional development resources. One standout feature: mock interviews powered by AI, designed to help users build confidence and refine their responses ahead of real-world applications.
