Simply Hired today announced a new social job search feature through expanded integration with LinkedIn. This new feature is the first LinkedIn mashup in the industry to enable job seekers to instantly view and discover business connections at the companies returned in their job search results.
When you click on the Who Do I Know? button, Simply Hired automatically delivers an in-line view of your professional connections with potential employers included in your results. This makes networking simpler by searching through your contacts for you. Instead of sifting through your cell phone’s address book or LinkedIn account, your connections appear right in front of you! And don’t worry, we won’t show you 5th degree connections (what good do those do, anyway?). We keep it to first or second degree connections to make sure that these are relevant and easy to contact for more information about the job, or even a referral.
