Let’s discuss the candidate journey and the touch points that Neha will encounter on LinkedIn that will influence her decision.

3 contestants. Each contestant gets their own Q. Q4 is buzzer question. At Q4 buzz in
When Neha checks her LinkedIn app and sees an interesting role at Facebook, she experiences some FOMO, which brings us to our first question.
Three product updates to help you focus on the right candidates and improve your response rates by 2-4x. They are: Open Candidates, Apply Starters, and Contractor Targeting.
Along jobs, along careers, along recruiter –
Millenials looking to move make every 2 years…etc.
OPEN CANDIDATES:
Improves your response rates by 2-4x.
APPLY STARTERS:
we’ve found that as many as 74% of candidates don’t finish an application when they’re directed to company career sites. Yet these members are just as qualified as other applicants, and are often still interested in the role.
This makes them 4x as likely to respond to a recruiter as the average member.
CONTRACTORS:
There are already over 4 million members on LinkedIn who are likely interested in contract roles.
Candidates who self-identify as contractors are 3x more likely to respond, and 40% respond within one day.
So when Neha is on her LI app, she sees her friends at other leading tech companies in the Bay area sharing updates. Of course the FOMO kicks in so she reads further. This brings us to Q 2.

Neha has done her research, she is warmed up and is contemplating new opportunities bringing us to Q 3.
Mobile is now a huge part of job seeking in the open talent economy
Mobile has been a big enabler of this: people browse in between meetings, on their commute, at lunch
In fact, according to a research by the Pew Institute, a whopping 94% of job seekers have used their smartphone to browse or research job listings
We’ve seen this on LinkedIn too. More people are open and browsing
We now have 20M professionals viewing jobs every week, which is up 2X from 2015 -- and 60% of those job views are from mobile devices
By simply adding a Jobs tab on the mobile app, over 20 mil people are now looking at jobs each week on LinkedIn.
We also have enhanced the job viewing experience on mobile and are allowing member to help with the targetin g ofhe jobs?**
In the US, 75% of job seekers consider commute time when deciding on an opportunity, and half claim it as the primary reason they took their last job.
As it turns out, apply starters are just as interested as the people who completed the application and are 4 times as likely to respond to recruiter outreach as the average candidate.

Apply Starters helps you find candidates you might have otherwise lost. Let’s take a moment to talk about Veronica. Veronica viewed a role at Dropbox but never completed the application. The hiring manager saw her as an Apply Starter and reached out. She’s now a Dropbox employee.
Let’s bring our story back to Neha. You stumble upon Neha who is now an Open Candidate and we find out that Neha did not complete the app process. You decide to send her an INMail. Beth mentioned 63% of people are …..

Was thinking of sharing the stat and then maybe you can briefly demo the new InMail analytics report in the tool? We can reconnect it to the Neha story. When looking at companies, we see Neha’s company she is currently at tends to respond at higher rates. We also see she’s been in her role for 2-3 years, etc……
