LinkedIn Launches Searchable Job Ad Library to Enhance Transparency and Hiring Insights
LinkedIn has expanded its Ad Library with a new Job Library segment, offering a publicly accessible database of all promoted job listings on the platform since April 2025. This update aligns with ongoing efforts to improve transparency in digital advertising and hiring practices.
“LinkedIn’s Job Library is a publicly available database that gives you information about paid job posts that have run on LinkedIn,” the company noted in its official announcement. “You can search for paid jobs by company, keyword, country, and date range.”
The Job Library allows users to browse all active and historical paid job posts for up to one year after they are closed. Users can refine their searches using filters such as employer name, geographic region, and keywords, making it a useful tool for competitive analysis and recruitment research.
In addition to basic job posting details, the database includes:
- Targeting parameters (for posts within the EU)
- Impression data, including country-level breakdowns
- Information on restricted listings, within legal disclosure boundaries
For European Union job posts specifically, LinkedIn provides insights into targeting strategies, such as selected skills and target geographies, along with estimated impression data. This follows broader trends in regulatory expectations around ad transparency in the EU.
This expansion builds on the Ad Library first introduced by LinkedIn in 2023, reinforcing the platform’s role in providing visibility into paid promotional activity across its network.
Key Takeaway:
The LinkedIn Job Library serves both as a transparency mechanism and a strategic resource, offering marketers, recruiters, and hiring managers new visibility into how organizations are leveraging paid listings to attract talent—and which skills are most frequently targeted.
