Facebook Jobs is a new feature dedicated to job offers, which will appear in the News Feed. Registering via Messenger will be quick and easy
Facebook prepares resumes and takes the field to challenge LinkedIn. Mark Zuckerberg’s social, in fact, will activate the function for the search and job offers, and aims to get much of the advertising funding now allocated to the social platform purchased by Microsoft.
How does the new option of Facebook to find work? From today, job offers will be visible on the News Feed of the social: any interested company will be able to make recruitment directly through its page. Interested users who want to apply will not have to leave Facebook to send their resume. There will be a call to action style button under each new offer, clicking this button the user can complete their application. The registration to the job offer will be formalized through Facebook Messenger.
How to find a job on Facebook

Facebook intends to exploit a very large pool of users that LinkedIn does not take into account. That is, users who are not actively looking for a job and users who do not have specific skills and knowledge to create their own stable network on LinkedIn. This is a significant number of people that could also put a dent in the Redmond-based social’s advertising revenue. Although initially, the two platforms seem to be able to survive without stepping on each other’s toes too much, since the targets they address are very different. Facebook, moreover, intends to earn from paid ads for companies and from the return of viral advertising that a job offer, very shared, can have. In short, at the level of interest, it could attract many new companies compared to LinkedIn.
Privacy problem
So far only roses and flowers for the new Facebook feature. Some, however, have some doubts. Many are skeptical about the possibility of applying on the social. In fact, for some time now, many have feared that the company might check their Facebook profile before hiring them. However, the head of Business Platforms Andrew “Boz” Bosworth is not worried about this fact. “It makes sense,” Bosworth says, “if we’re looking at candidates for managerial jobs or high positions, but I don’t think a recent college graduate or a worker who is looking for part-time employment would give much weight to that aspect, which is then all up for review.”
