About LinkedIn Mate: Find Hidden Job Opportunities
Find the jobs that are never advertised.
LinkedIn Mate watches the people and companies you choose, reads their new posts, and tells you when one of them is hiring. It also spots hiring posts in your feed while you scroll, so you can see who is hiring before the job reaches a job board.
Free, no account, no ads, and your data stays in your browser.
HOW IT WORKS
1. Open a person's or a company's LinkedIn page and click Watch. Watch at least 3 to 5 recruiters, hiring managers or companies.
2. LinkedIn Mate checks them in the background while Chrome is open (each profile within about 6 hours) and reads their new posts.
3. Each post is sorted as a job post, a hint (career advice) or other. Job posts trigger a desktop notification. Click it to open the post.
WHAT YOU GET
- Watch people and company pages in one click, right on the page. Stop watching just as easily.
- Hiring profiles from your feed: while you scroll, hiring posts turn into profiles you can watch or ignore. Works whatever language your LinkedIn is in.
- A History of every classified post, with filters for job, hint and other, and search.
- Classification with keyword lists you can edit, or with your own LLM (an OpenAI-compatible API or a local Ollama). If your LLM stops working, the extension tells you why.
- Desktop notifications for job posts (on by default) and for hints (off by default).
- Light and dark themes.
- Export and import your watch list as a file.
PRIVACY
- Everything the extension stores (watched profiles, post text, classifications, settings and logs) stays in your browser.
- Only if you choose LLM classification, the text of new posts from the profiles you watch is sent to the endpoint you configured.
- Optional anonymous statistics (you can turn them off in Settings): once a day, counts only, such as how many profiles you watch, how often each page was opened and on how many of the last 7 and 30 days you used the extension. Never names, profile links, post text or keys. Settings shows the exact next report.
LinkedIn Mate is free and independent. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to LinkedIn. You need to be signed in to LinkedIn in Chrome.
