LinkedIn has recently introduced a new AI Hiring Assistant tool, which, according to its website, will "take on a recruiter's most repetitive tasks so they can spend more time on their most impactful work." This is an interesting development for recruiters who are handling applications for dozens of positions and managing hundreds -- if not thousands -- of applicants. However, most users aren't using LinkedIn to do this. You might be using the networking platform to look for work, network, and promote your business. If you're wondering whether there are AI LinkedIn tools to help with these things, too, then the answer is yes.

AI features are only available with Premium Plans, so you'll need to commit to monthly payments, starting from $29.99 per month for the Career plan. There are other plans for businesses, sales managers, and recruiters. If you want to make use of the AI Hiring Assistant tool, for example, you'll need a Recruiter & Jobs account with customized pricing starting at around $835 a month. Currently, you can sign up for a one-month free trial for LinkedIn Career and Business plans, so you can find out for yourself if LinkedIn's AI and other premium features are worth paying out for.
