LinkedIn, the popular professional networking site, has recently announced an exciting new feature—and according to the experts at Grammar Chic, Inc., it could be a gamechanger for jobseekers. The feature in question is hashtag compatibility—meaning companies can now add searchable keywords to the content they share, in an effort to better attract the right job applicants. In a new statement to the press, Grammar Chic, Inc. explains what makes LinkedIn hashtags such a big deal.r

“As an employer, you can now use hashtags to denote the most important components of your company culture,” comments Amanda Clark, Chief Executive Officer of Grammar Chic, Inc. “And, as a jobseeker, you can optimize your searches to connect with employers who offer the perks or values that matter to you—making it easier than ever to find your dream job on LinkedIn.”

As a recent CNBC article notes, a jobseeker who wants a pet-friendly workplace can search for the “dogfriendly” hashtag to find applicable employers in their area—and that’s just one example. LinkedIn hashtags can also help jobseekers to connect with businesses that offer workplace wellness, professional development opportunities, certain healthcare benefits, and beyond.

“As you seek the workplace that perfectly jibes with your values, the LinkedIn Hashtags feature can be handy—but keep a few caveats in mind,” Clark says. “The first is that this is a brand-new feature, and it’s going to take some time for more and more employers to implement it. Also note that searching for too many hashtags at one time may make it close to impossible to find a match; it’s best to limit yourself to two or three.”

With that said, LinkedIn Hashtags is something that seems poised to take off—so Clark advises jobseekers to stick with it. “Come up with a handful of hashtag searches that you find to be valuable, and hang on to them—revisiting the results each week or two and seeing which new companies come up,” she says.

LinkedIn Hashtags represents one important way for jobseekers to avail themselves of this platform. Another: Optimizing their own LinkedIn profiles. “Even as you use this new feature, take some time to make sure your own professional profile is clean, polished, and up-to-date,” comments Clark. “As ever, the professional resume writing team at Grammar Chic, Inc. can help you.”
