Simply Hired Meets LinkedIn

Cheezhead points to a new feature on the job search site Simply Hired.

The site is now integrating LinkedIn contact information into its job postings. I've long advocated for job seekers to go beyond the traditional means of applying for a job. Instead of applying online and then waiting to hear back, I believe candidates should be researching and/or networking to find a way in, so they can get a foot in the door at their target company.

This new feature makes that easier than ever. Simply search for jobs, then click the button to see who in your network can help you get a leg up on other candidates. Excellent!
