LinkedIn is reportedly developing a new AI assistant called “LinkedIn Coach” that could help users with their job search. The assistant would be able to provide users with advice on how to write their resume, prepare for interviews, and network with other professionals. It could also help users learn new skills and stay up-to-date on industry trends.
The news of LinkedIn Coach was first reported by app researcher Nima Owji, who shared screenshots of the assistant on Twitter. The screenshots show that LinkedIn Coach is still in development, but it already has a number of features that could be helpful to job seekers. For example, the assistant can help users find open positions that match their skills and interests, and it can also provide tips on how to ace a job interview.
LinkedIn has not yet announced a release date for LinkedIn Coach, but the company said in a statement that it is “always exploring” new ways to improve the user experience on its platform. The company also said that it will have more to share about LinkedIn Coach “soon.”
The development of LinkedIn Coach is a sign of the growing importance of AI in the job search process. As AI-powered tools become more sophisticated, they are likely to play an increasingly important role in helping people find and land their dream jobs. Microsoft has already invested heavily in AI chatbots, including Bing Chat and Microsoft 365 Copilot.

As AI-powered job search tools become more widespread, it is important to be aware of the potential limitations of these tools. For example, AI-powered tools can sometimes be incorrect, which could lead to discrimination against certain groups of people.
It is also important to remember that AI-powered tools are not a replacement for human judgment. When using AI-powered tools, it is important to be critical of the results and to use your own judgment to make decisions.
