“Technology is not going to replace the human,” says the boss of LinkedIn

Why is LinkedIn a good job market observation post?

LinkedIn is so much more than just that blue app on your cell phone or this site on your computer. Because behind that, there is an ability to collect data on the job market in an absolutely mive way and to bring out information thanks to what is called the “economic graph”. Today, more than 930 million people have a profile on LinkedIn, 60 million companies use us and there are 15 million jobs available. Every minute, nine new connections between members are established, eight new jobs are igned and every second five new members create a profile. From our vantage point, we see the connections that are made between people and businesses and the trends that are formed.
