Introducing LinkedIn Matched Audiences
It’s LinkedIn again, increasing its value prop with this newly released feature last week. We’re beginning to care about the folks who don’t apply. Providing tools to help companies better understand the near misses is smart. Love to hear feedback on folks who’ve trialled this.
COOL TOOL

LinkedIn Now Lets You Search Your Connection’s Connections
And it’s yet more goodies from LinkedIn. Filtering by ‘connections of’ will provide users with much greater granularity on the results they see - should improve relevancy, promote better outreach and ultimately improve user experience.

Gender Pay Gap - Bunkum?
It’s difficult these days to talk about challenging topics without putting yourself at risk of social opprobrium and potentially professional sanction. Thankfully we have people like Stephen O'Donnell, Lisa Scales and Craig Fisher prepared to step forward and open the debate. This is an excellent write up on a topic we agreed has been grossly oversimplified. Video recording the crowdcast hereD&I

Smorgasbord of a post on the potential impact of Blockchain, going from the trivial (CV verification) to the revolutionary (end of the company). One to bookmark if you’re interested in Blockchain in HR - it’s well linked to other relevant posts. H/T OH subscriber @Anna Ott for the share. BLOCKCHAIN
