Google Now Shows Job Postings In Its Search Results

It’s now official: Job listings are coming to Google’s search results in a much more prominent way. Google’s job search initiative is now live in US search results. Initially debuted at the company’s I/O conference, Google For Jobs sees the search giant collaborating with other companies in the job matching industry to connect employers with the right candidates.

While joining the power of Google’s machine learning capabilities, combined with the services provided by other job matching sites, Google aims to help users find the right job for them. Whether you’re seeking an entry-level job, or a high level executive position, Google For Jobs will be able to surface opportunities of all types.

Google For Jobs can be activated on either desktop or mobile by searching for keywords such as “jobs near me”, “retail jobs”, and so on. In addition to job descriptions, Google will also show key information including when the job was posted, commute time from your home, whether it’s full or part time, and even reviews of the employer.

If there’s a particular type of job you’re interested in, you can turn on alerts and receive an email notification whenever a job matching your criteria gets posted.
