How long does it take for Job Advert changes to be reflected on LinkedIn

This article explains how long it takes for changes to your Job Adverts, including new adverts and removals, to appear on LinkedIn, and why there can be a short delay.

How the timing works

Having your Job Adverts appear on LinkedIn is a great way to increase your applications and strengthen how your brand is seen on the platform.

Behind the scenes, Refari presents a job feed to LinkedIn, and LinkedIn collects the data from that feed roughly once every 24 hours. Because the timing is set by LinkedIn rather than by Refari, any change you make to a Job Advert, or the removal of an advert, can take up to 24 hours to be reflected on LinkedIn.

This applies to new adverts, edits to existing adverts (such as the title, description, or location), and adverts you have removed. If a change has not appeared yet, it is usually worth waiting out the 24-hour window before treating it as a problem.

Getting your jobs onto LinkedIn

The 24-hour timing above applies to jobs that are already flowing to LinkedIn through our feed. How jobs get into that feed has changed, so it is worth understanding the current landscape before you rely on free listings.
