LinkedIn Postings

LinkedIn is a great way to promote job opportunities and connect with potential candidates. On behalf of central HR, Hiring Solutions currently manages six LinkedIn job slots, which are available for all departments to use free-of-charge, on a first-come, first-served basis. It is best to contact us before your scheduled posting date to see if there is a slot coming up available so that you can reserve a slot in advance. We will be able to post your job on LinkedIn for 2 weeks or until the posting closing date, whichever comes first. The LinkedIn posting will direct candidates to apply via the original UBC careers posting on Workday.
