X’s job search tool is now live on the web

<p>The LinkedIn-like job search tool that X has been experimenting with is <a data-i13n="cpos:1;pos:1" href="https://twitter.com/jobs">now live[/url]. A beta version of the feature launched <a data-i13n="cpos:2;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/x-sets-its-sights-on-linkedin-with-a-job-listing-feature-104525893.html">in August[/url] to verified users, but the web version of the tool is now open to everyone on X, with iOS and Android availability expected “soon,” according to the company.</p>
<p>The job search feature appears to already be populated with open positions at numerous tech companies, including those run by Elon Musk. There are currently roles listed for SpaceX, Tesla and Neuralink, as well as X and Musk’s newest venture, <a data-i13n="cpos:3;pos:1" href="https://www.engadget.com/the-morning-after-elon-musks-new-ai-company-xai-launches-grok-the-chatbot-121533489.html">x.ai[/url].</p>
<span id="end-legacy-contents"></span><p>While Musk previously <a data-i13n="cpos:4;pos:1" href="https://twitter.com/elonmusk/status/1695681276265845189">promised[/url] “we will make sure that the X competitor to LinkedIn is cool,” it appears to be very basic for now. Users can browse job listings and descriptions, but are directed to third-party sites to complete an application, even for roles at X. Elsewhere, the company has been testing <a data-i13n="cpos:5;pos:1" href="https://twitter.com/XHiring/status/1699904855836361047">“job cards” [/url]so that individual postings are more easily shareable throughout the platform.</p>
<p>But there have been signs the company has more ambitious plans for career-oriented features on its “everything app.” The company recently updated its <a data-i13n="cpos:6;pos:1" href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-08-31/x-plans-to-collect-user-biometric-data-job-and-education-history?sref=10lNAhZ9">privacy policy[/url] to note that it may collect data related to users’ employment history for “job applications and recommendations.” This may hint at some kind of recruiting feature for X or other, more advanced job finding features down the line.</p>This article originally appeared on Engadget at https://www.engadget.com/xs-job-search-tool-is-now-live-on-the-web-010200007.html?src=rss
