Hiring teams often struggle with the manual, repetitive task of posting job openings across multiple platforms. This not only consumes time but also increases the chances of errors and inconsistent job visibility.
To address this challenge, greytHR Recruit introduces an integration with LinkedIn’s Limited Listings feature. This offers recruiters a seamless way to publish Basic Jobs on LinkedIn.
Unlike Job Slots (paid jobs), Basic Jobs are free job posts aggregated on LinkedIn to create a wider job-seeking experience for members. By publishing these jobs directly on your company’s LinkedIn Page, you can reach candidates interested in your organization and make the application process simpler with everything in one place.
LinkedIn Limited Listings are free job posts that LinkedIn automatically gathers from job boards and applicant tracking systems (ATS) to help users easily discover relevant roles.
With this integration, job posts created in greytHR Recruit will automatically appear on the organization's LinkedIn page and in LinkedIn job searches, increasing visibility to a broader audience of active and passive job seekers.
Posting jobs to LinkedIn involves the following steps:
Enable the LinkedIn Limited Listings Integration
Post jobs on LinkedIn
To enable the LinkedIn Limited Listings integration, from your greytHR Admin portal, hover over the 9 dots and select Recruitment > Settings > Integrations.
Under the Job Feed section, toggle on the LinkedIn Limited Listing option.
Enter the Company ID and click Update. If you are unaware of the Company ID, click on the Find your Company ID link.
Note: If the Company ID is invalid, the job doesn’t get posted on LinkedIn.
After you have enabled the LinkedIn Limited Listing integration, you can post jobs on LinkedIn.
You can post jobs on LinkedIn while creating a new job or by editing an existing job. To post a job on LinkedIn, hover over the 9 dots and select Recruitment > Jobs.
To publish an existing job on LinkedIn, select an existing job card > click Edit > Sourcing > Job Feeds. Toggle the LinkedIn Limited Listing option, fill out the details such as Country, State, City, and other details, and click Publish.
To publish a new job on LinkedIn, on the Jobs page, click + Add Job, follow the steps similar to adding a job > under Sourcing > Job Feeds > toggle the LinkedIn Limited Listing option, fill out the details such as Country, State, City, and other details, and click Publish.
Note:
Once published, it may take up to 24 hours for the job to appear on LinkedIn.
The LinkedIn Limited Listing toggle option is available once you have completed the integration.
Important: After you click on Publish to post jobs to LinkedIn, the system should check if all mandatory fields are available and validations are satisfied.
The mandatory fields are:
Job ID - (will be generated during job creation)
Company Name - (Company Name from Req if there are multiple companies, or a system-level company name if there is only one)
Job Title - (will be generated during job creation)
Job Description - (will be generated during job creation)
LinkedIn Company ID - (available in the settings page)
The validations needed are:
Ensure 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
If mandatory fields are missing or validations fail, the system will not allow the job to be posted on LinkedIn.
Limited listings don't guarantee a job being posted on LinkedIn. This is due to certain reasons:
De-duplication: Jobs that you have already posted directly on LinkedIn or from greytHR Recruit.
Employer opt-out: If you have opted out of the LL program.
Invalid fields: Missing mandatory fields like Company ID, Industry, or Location.
Spam Jobs: Jobs posted on LinkedIn may go through a review process to ensure they meet LinkedIn’s professionalism and integrity guidelines.
In some cases, LinkedIn may require certain jobs to be promoted, such as those from companies with generic names (e.g., “Confidential Company”) or staffing firms. This helps prevent misuse, improve quality, and ensure transparency. LinkedIn also reserves the right to mandate job promotion.
