The LinkedIn XML feed contains the information required to ingest and post jobs on LinkedIn. To expedite your implementation process, as well as ensure the accuracy of your ingested jobs’ details, create the XML feed in the below format:

Creating the XML Feed

The XML feed contains two types of job elements:

  • Mandatory
  • Recommended

Mandatory Fields

Following is the list of fields that must be included on the Basic Jobs XML feed for the jobs to be considered as valid to be posted on LinkedIn:

  • Job ID
  • Company Name
  • Job Title
  • Job Description
  • Location String
  • Apply URL
  • LinkedIn Company ID [Mandatory for Applicant Tracking Systems (ATSs)]

Job Posting Field Schema

This following table lists and describes the job fields supported by the Basic Jobs XML feed:

Remote and Workplace Type Fields

We will sunset the IsRemote field on November 1, 2022. The IsRemote field will be replaced by the workplaceTypes field with three new workplace types:

  • On-site
  • Hybrid
  • Remote

Below are the minimum location requirements for these workplace types:

Workplace Type Minimum Location Requirements
On-site City and Country
Hybrid City and Country
Remote Country only or City and Country

In the scenario IsRemote field is not removed from the XML feed by November 1, 2022, jobs marked Remote through the IsRemote field will be marked as Workplace Type as On-site by default.

Formatting Guidelines

When you provide job descriptions in XML, we expect you to use the same HTML formatting from your website. Include your formatting in CDATA tags.

Note

We do not support escaped HTML entities. For example, use < instead of &lt;

The following HTML tags are supported for description field. Other HTML tags will be stripped out, and their contents will be displayed as plain text.

Tag Description
<b>, <strong> Bold/Strong
<u> Underline
<i> italic
<br> Line Break
<p> Paragraph
<ul> Unordered List
<li> Ordered List
<em> Emphasized text(italics)

XML Feed Considerations

LinkedIn recommends the following feed considerations:

  • Ensure all required fields are populated correctly
  • Ensure Partner Job Id has a maximum length of 40 characters to be considered as valid
  • Ensure job descriptions have a minimum of 100 characters to be considered as valid
  • Minimize the number of expired jobs in your XML feed
  • Minimize the number of duplicate jobs in your XML feed
  • Do not use your company name or other job boards’ company name in place of the name of the company that originally posted the job
  • Include maximum information about the location such as full name of cities and countries/regions. Providing only a city name can be ambiguous

Requirement Considerations

LinkedIn recommends the following requirement considerations:

  • Do not have duplicate jobs in feeds
  • Do not close and reopen jobs repeatedly
  • Do not use redirecting URLs for jobs
  • LinkedIn only accepts jobs that are directly posted by employers on your platform. Once the member clicks the 'Apply' button for these jobs on LinkedIn, they should be directly taken to the site where they can complete the application process. Ensure to exclude jobs from the feed that are aggregated from other third-party sites
  • A feed can contain maximum 500K jobs. However, for feeds with 500k jobs or more (large partners):

    • Split jobs into several feeds based on country/region location

    • Do not rotate jobs between feeds. Each feed should contain unique and consistent jobs to avoid having a job show on one feed today and later (or also) on another feed. Refer the below example of job rotation that may lead to errors at our end:

      Day Source Job ID
      1 partition1 123
      1 partition2 456
      2 partition1 No Job ID with 123
      2 partition2 123

Note

Ensure that the Company IDs are validated before being sent on the XML feed. Once ingested, it can only be updated if a new Company ID is updated on the feed for the same employer.
