LinkedIn Job Wrapping via XML Feed (Free Limited Listings)

Automatically sync your SCALIS job postings to LinkedIn using the LinkedIn Jobs XML feed integration.

Overview

The LinkedIn Jobs XML integration allows you to automatically push jobs from SCALIS directly to LinkedIn, keeping your listings continuously up to date. LinkedIn pulls the XML feed every 6 hours, so any changes you make in SCALIS will be reflected on LinkedIn within that window.

This integration is distinct from SCALIS's LinkedIn Limited Listings (powered by VONQ/Basic Jobs API). The XML feed method gives you full control over job content and supports LinkedIn Recruiter customers (Job Slot and Job Post contract types).

ℹ️   Which integration do I have? If your LinkedIn Product Settings shows "Job slot utilization," you are a Job Slot customer. If it shows "Contract Spend," you are a Job Post customer. The setup process differs slightly between the two. 

Which LinkedIn posting path do I use?

SCALIS supports two methods for posting jobs to LinkedIn. The right path depends on whether you have a paid LinkedIn Recruiter account.

Paid — LinkedIn Recruiter

XML Feed (Job Slots)

For companies with LinkedIn Recruiter subscriptions. Jobs are posted using your purchased job slot allocation via an XML feed that LinkedIn pulls every 6 hours.

 Free — Limited Listings

Basic Jobs API

For companies without LinkedIn Recruiter. SCALIS pushes jobs to LinkedIn for free as organic listings, powered by VONQ. Subject to LinkedIn's organic posting policies.

ℹ️   Not sure which you have? Log in to LinkedIn Recruiter and go to Product Settings. If you see "Job slot utilization," you're on the XML feed path. If you don't have a Recruiter account, you're using Limited Listings.

Prerequisites

  • An active LinkedIn account (Job Slot or Job Post)
  • Admin access to your LinkedIn company page
  • Your SCALIS XML feed URL (provided by your SCALIS Customer Success Manager)
  • Organic job posting enabled on your LinkedIn company page

Enabling organic (free) job posting on your LinkedIn company page

As of LinkedIn's transition to the Basic Jobs API for organic postings, all company pages must have the "Enable basic job posting" toggle turned on before jobs from the XML feed will appear on LinkedIn. This is a one-time setup step.

  1. Access your company page
    Log in to your personal LinkedIn account. In the left-hand sidebar (or via the "Me" icon at the top), select your company name under the Manage section.
  2. Open Job Settings 
    From your Company Page in Admin view, click Settings at the bottom of the left-side menu, then select Job postings from the sub-menu.
  3. Enable basic job posting
    At the top of the page, locate the "Enable basic job posting" toggle and switch it to On (it will turn green).

⚠️    If the toggle doesn't work: The admin of the LinkedIn account should email LTSATSINTEGRATIONS@linkedin.com and request that job postings be enabled for their company page. This setting can be adjusted at any time via that email address.

🚨      This is the most common reason jobs don't appear on LinkedIn. If you've set up the XML feed correctly but jobs aren't posting, check this toggle first before raising a support ticket.

Understanding job slots vs. limited listings

SCALIS supports two distinct LinkedIn job posting pathways. It's important to understand which one your account uses:

Feature Job Slots (XML Feed) Limited Listings (Basic Jobs)
Product settings label "Job slot utilization" Free / organic listing
How it works You purchase a set number of job slots; XML feed fills them Free organic postings via LinkedIn's Basic Jobs
Controlled by LinkedIn Recruiter + XML feed SCALIS (third-party integration)
Requires "Enable basic job posting" toggle Yes Yes
Job slot limit matters? Yes - active jobs cannot exceed your purchased slot count No hard slot limit, but subject to LinkedIn organic policies

⚠️    Job slot mismatch is a common issue. If you have fewer LinkedIn job slots than active jobs in your SCALIS feed, some jobs will not post. Regularly review the number of active jobs you're syncing against your purchased slot count. Contact your LinkedIn account manager if you need to increase your slot allocation.

Frequently asked questions
How often does LinkedIn pull the XML feed?

LinkedIn scrapes XML feeds every 6 hours. You can check the last and next update times in LinkedIn Recruiter under Product Settings → Job posting → ATS Sources for Automated Job Postings.

Can I edit a job after it's been posted?

Yes. Update the job in SCALIS and it will be reflected on LinkedIn at the next feed pull (within 6 hours). Note that manual edits made directly in LinkedIn Recruiter will be overwritten if the same job changes in the feed.

My jobs aren't showing up at all — what should I check?
  1. Confirm the "Enable basic job posting" toggle is On on your LinkedIn company page.
  2. Verify with your SCALIS CSM that your feed URL is publicly accessible
  3. Review the Invalid Jobs section in LinkedIn Recruiter
  4. Confirm your active job count doesn't exceed your purchased job slots
Who do I contact for support?

For LinkedIn-specific feed issues, create a support ticket at linkedin.com/help/recruiter. LinkedIn Support can assist with field questions, feed testing, and job posting errors — but cannot create the XML feed on your behalf.
