Gender Insights Report: How Women and Men Find Jobs Differently
When it comes to investing in diversity, 71% of talent professionals
report that achieving gender parity* at their company is a
top priority.1 And while there is a long way to go to get there, a
thoughtful, data-driven recruiting strategy can help you make
meaningful gains toward that goal.
To understand how gender impacts the candidate journey, we
analyzed LinkedIn data on billions of interactions between
companies and candidates from job applications to recruiter
outreach and hires. The results show that while women and men
explore opportunities similarly, there’s a clear gap in how they apply
to jobs — and in how companies recruit them.
The good news is that this data is actionable. This report will help
you improve every step of the job seeker journey on LinkedIn, from
how you position your employer brand and interact with candidates,
to benchmarking your gender diversity hiring goals against your
industry. Your push for #BalanceForBetter can start today.

LinkedIn For College Students
LinkedIn is a professional networking site that can help college students market themselves, find jobs, and connect with professionals in their field. Students should focus on the field they are studying, brainstorm potential career goals, and develop a target audience of potential employers when setting up their profile. They should optimize their profile by including a professional photo and summary, listing experiences and education, and asking for recommendations to showcase their qualifications and character. Developing a professional online presence and network through meaningful participation in LinkedIn groups and connections can help students transition successfully from college to their career.
