Why is my job not appearing on LinkedIn?

If a job you've posted through GoHire isn't showing up on your LinkedIn Company Page, and you can see a status update in GoHire referencing a company page issue, this article explains why and how to fix it.

The error message

If this is the issue you're experiencing, you'll typically see the following status update against the job in GoHire:

“LinkedIn blocked this job because there is an issue with the associated company page. Please check the selected company or contact us.”

Why this happens

This message means LinkedIn has rejected the job because your LinkedIn Company Page doesn't currently recognise GoHire as an approved source for posting jobs to it. This is a setting that lives on the LinkedIn side, not in GoHire, so a manual step is required on your end to resolve it.

There are two ways to fix this: connect GoHire as your ATS directly from your LinkedIn Company Page settings (recommended, and usually resolved within a few minutes), or email LinkedIn's integrations team and ask them to do it for you.

Option 1: Connect GoHire as your ATS on LinkedIn

You'll need to be an administrator of your LinkedIn Company Page to complete these steps.

1. Log in to LinkedIn and go to your Company Page as an administrator, then open Settings from the admin menu on the left.

2. From the Settings menu, select Job posting.

3. On the Job posting page, make sure Enable basic job posting is switched on, then select + Connect ATS.

4. In the Connect a new ATS window, choose GoHire from the dropdown list and select Connect.

5. Once connected, GoHire will appear in the list of connected ATS providers on the Job posting page, confirming the setup is complete.

Once this is done, LinkedIn will recognise GoHire as your primary ATS for job posting, and jobs sent from GoHire should start appearing on your Company Page as expected.

Option 2: Contact LinkedIn directly

If you're not able to access your LinkedIn Company Page settings, or you'd prefer LinkedIn's team to make the change, you can email LinkedIn's ATS integrations team directly:

A good template to use is below:

“I am a client of GoHire, an Integrated ATS with LinkedIn. I would like GoHire to be my primary posting source. I need a CS rep to review my jobs to determine if they are suitable for organic visibility per your Quality Standards.”
