If you’ve been using LinkedIn’s free job posting feature, you might have noticed a frustrating change — the applicant limit has recently been reduced from 50 to just 26 candidates. That means once 26 people apply, your job post automatically closes, and you’ll either need to reopen it (with limited visibility) or pay to promote it.
For startups, SMEs, and HR teams trying to manage multiple openings, this update significantly restricts your ability to attract and manage the right talent.
What This Change Means for Employers

Instead of depending solely on LinkedIn’s changing free tools, switch to a platform built to give you full control over your hiring process. With Talent Connects ATS, you can:
✅ Post unlimited jobs — no applicant cap.
✅ Receive and manage all applications in one dashboard.
✅ Filter candidates instantly using AI-driven shortlisting tools.
✅ Automate communication with shortlisted and rejected candidates.
✅ Integrate your job posts across multiple channels (LinkedIn, Facebook, website career page, and more).

As platforms like LinkedIn tighten their free features, forward-thinking HR teams are turning to Talent Connects to streamline hiring without increasing costs. Our platform doesn’t limit your growth — it amplifies it, giving you flexibility, speed, and transparency in recruitment.
