How Does the Job Feed Determine What to Display?

[dan-edelman]

Lately, my job feed has been displaying posts that seem off target. Even the "best matches" feed is showing jobs that have nothing to do with my profile's categories and selected job skills. I've been through the criteria on my profile that I assume is used to generate the feed and I'm a little confused as to why I'm not seeing better matches.

I started using the "thumbs down" function on the feed to weed out jobs I'm not interested in or that do not match my skill set (some have been downright befuddling). To what extent does using this function mess with the feed?

Bottom line: What can I do to better tailor the job feed?

Thanks,
Dan E

Hi Daniel,

I would suggest to save your search results so that you're receiving the most relevant jobs in your job feed. When you're searching for a skill/industry you will have the option to save the search result. To learn more about this, check out this Help Article. You can also use our filters to filter out some of the jobs in your search results. Thank you.

OK. I'll play around with that. Thanks.

Hello,

Is anyone having an issue with their job feed where the feed will display maybe 15-20 jobs that were posted within a few hours or so to jobs that were posted anywhere from 5-15 days ago or more? I've never seen the feed act like this. It makes it really difficult to find current/new jobs. Any feedback would be appreciated.
