How to Add the Hiring Badge on LinkedIn

Updated on:

Use this step-by-step demo to learn how to add the hiring badge on LinkedIn.
  1. To add the hiring badge on LinkedIn, click the ‘Open to’ button below your profile photo and name on your profile page.
  2. Choose and select ‘Hiring’ to indicate that you’re looking to hire candidates.
  3. Select a job to specify the role you are hiring for. Ensure that you have experience or are affiliated with a company to proceed.
  4. Answer and fill in the succeeding steps to complete the hiring setup.
  5. Once done, you’ll have a purple ‘Hiring’ badge displayed on your profile photo, which indicates that you are actively hiring.

📌 Why this matters

Adding the hiring badge transforms your profile from a passive networking tool into an active recruitment magnet. The badge signals to your network that you're hiring, prompting qualified candidates to reach out directly rather than waiting for you to find them. Beyond attracting applicants, the badge positions you as a decision-maker and establishes your company's hiring momentum publicly. This social proof can attract higher-caliber candidates who want to join growing organizations, while also encouraging employee referrals from connections who see you're expanding your team.
