Intended to aid job-seekers as well as business-minded social networkers, Company Search not only uses attributes such as location, industry and size, but also how users are connected.</p> <p>Results are personalized based on factors such as keywords, filters and users&rsquo; overall connection strength to the businesses being queried. The words that a company&rsquo;s employees use to describe themselves on their LinkedIn profiles are also used in searches, as well as those keywords used to describe the company.</p> <p>Users, specifically those in search of employment, can now refine their searches to a list of target companies, filter to only those companies hiring on LinkedIn, and then quickly view the jobs that each company has posted. </p> <p>&nbsp;</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div><img src="http://www.websitemagazine.com/content/aggbug.aspx?PostID=16159" width="1" height="1">linkedinemploymentcompany search
