In today’s job search environment, LinkedIn is the go-to platform for millions of professionals. Yet, with the platform's vast array of opportunities, finding the right role can be daunting. I’ve been navigating these waters for some time and have encountered a few issues that might resonate with other job seekers.
My LinkedIn Job Search Issue
As someone open to a wide range of roles, I initially focused my search parameters on verticals, seniority, and location. Unfortunately, this led to an overwhelming number of results — most of which were irrelevant. Even after filtering for roles posted in the last 24 hours, LinkedIn includes “Reposted†roles in this window, bloating the results.
I found myself stuck in a lengthy, daily review process. Many of the irrelevant roles were in technical or unrelated fields. So, I began using LinkedIn’s keyword filtering tool to exclude specific roles by typing “NOT developer NOT architect NOT accountant,†etc.
New Challenges
- Overly Aggressive Filtering: LinkedIn’s keyword filter looks through the entire job description (JD), not just the title. This meant I might accidentally exclude relevant jobs if the job description simply mentioned “developer†in passing.
- Persistent Irrelevant Results: Despite filtering, many irrelevant roles still popped up, creating more frustration than relief (and I was already at the limit of the keyword search allowed number of characters)
My Solution
Then, I discovered that LinkedIn allows you to filter jobs by "Title" rather than keywords in the job description. But there was a catch: LinkedIn doesn’t offer a direct list of all the available job titles to filter by — turns out there are 24,000 titles in their system! You can filter by titles using a parameter in the URL. For instance, if you want to see all “Nurse†roles, you'd use the link:
If you want to filter for multiple roles, let's say Nurse and Travel Nurse, separate each 2 codes with the text %2C like this:
How to Choose the Right Titles?
With 24,000 titles to choose from, how do you narrow it down to something manageable? LinkedIn lets you filter by up to 100 titles at a time. The trick is identifying which titles are the most common and relevant to your interests.
Below is a list of the Top 100 job titles on LinkedIn right now in the US, together with their codes and frequency. This list is a great starting point to refine your search and make your job-hunting process more efficient.
