LinkedIn Corp (LNKD) Launches Job Search App For Android

LinkedIn Corp (NYSE:LNKD), the professional world-focused social network, has just released a specialized application for job seekers who use Android devices.

Called LinkedIn Job Search, the app is now available in all English-speaking nations, according to LinkedIn Corp (NYSE:LNKD) Product Manager Daniel Ayele.

The app comes nine months after the social network released its job seeker app for iOS. However, Ayele notes that the Android application was built from the ground up with the Android experience in mind, which may explain why it took three quarters for the social network to release the app after its iOS counterpart.

The new LinkedIn Corp (NYSE:LNKD) app features job search by title, keyword and location. Once the app learns from your behavior using it, it can display recommended jobs. These recommendations are based on your LinkedIn profile, past searches and jobs viewed.

Meanwhile, the post announcing the new app also yields some facts from the company. According to the graphics posted by Ayele, Wisconsin, Georgia and Florida are the leading states in the U.S. in terms of LinkedIn use on Android devices. For iOS devices, the states are California, New York and Massachusetts.

Furthermore, it was revealed in the LinkedIn Corp (NYSE:LNKD) post that Android users, who are said to be typically from IT and web programming fields, send a lot of invites while using the service. For iOS uses, who are said to be typically in the healthcare management and graphic design fields, they do a lot of searches.
