Facebook’s New Job Board Puts LinkedIn on Notice
Facebook launched a new Social Jobs application on Wednesday in partnership with the Department of Labor and several leading career websites, including Monster.com, BranchOut and Jobvite.
The job board is intended to “leverage social media to connect great jobs with great candidates,” Facebook said in a statement announcing the Social Jobs app. There are currently more than 1.7 million job listings featured in the Facebook app.
