With an aim to help its users craft a compelling resume,ย LinkedInย has launched a useful feature called Resume Assistant to bring the insights of the professional networking site directly intoย Microsoft Word.

After you select your desired role and industry, Resume Assistant will pull LinkedIn insights from millions of member profiles so you can see diverse examples of how professionals in that role describe their work.

โ€œWithin Resume Assistant youโ€™ll also see relevant job listings from LinkedInโ€™s over 11 million active job openings to jump-start your search.โ€

โ€œAlong with job openings, youโ€™ll see details of what the job requires, helping you to tailor your resume to a specific role,โ€ LinkedIn said in aย blog postย on Wednesday.

Within Resume Assistant, users will also see the option to turn on Open Candidates. This feature on LinkedIn quietly signals to recruiters that you are open to new opportunities, and makes you twice as likely to hear from recruiters.

Resume Assistant will be rolling out to Microsoft Insiders starting this week on Windows and will be generally available to Office 365 subscribers in the coming months, the Microsoft-owned firm said.

โ€œFiguring out how to put your best foot forward can be challenging when youโ€™re looking for a new opportunity. Your LinkedIn profile should be the first place you go to update your career journey and to reflect your professional experience and interests. Your profile not only helps to establish connections, it ensures that recruiters can find you for new opportunities, and your network can provide the connection to the ones youโ€™re interested in. We also know that a resume is an important part of the recruitment process, and we want your skills, your experiences, and everything you bring to a company to be best represented across your profile and resume,โ€ LinkedIn added.
