What If It Only Took A Minute To Apply For A Job

Thanks to LinkedIn, it just became that easy. We all know the headaches associated with applying for a job. It’s not fun. The process can be long and repetitive. LinkedIn just launched their “Apply With LinkedIn” button and it only takes a minute to apply for a job.

The way the button works is that by applying with the “Apply With LinkedIn” button, your LinkedIn profile is submitted as your resume. That’s it! Nothing fancy, no cover letter, just your profile information that you have been updating for years. Well, hopefully right?

This new button has already been implemented on several companies’ job boards, such as Netflix and Photobucket. Since this service is free, many more employers are sure to add this feature to their site.

Now that is quick and easy, but is it too easy? Will candidates apply for tons of jobs that they aren’t really qualified for? I guess time will tell, but for now, it is nice to have a simpler solution when applying for a job.
