## FAQ

### How do I get a single LinkedIn job posting with an API?

Send a GET request to /v1/linkedin/job with a LinkedIn job id in the id parameter. The response is a single object with the full posting: title, company, location, description, seniority, and employment type.

### What fields does the LinkedIn job endpoint return?

The job title, hiring company, location, full description text, seniority level, and employment type (full-time, part-time, contract, and so on). Add the optional include_skills parameter to also get the skills the posting lists.

### Where do I get the job id this endpoint needs?

The job id comes from /v1/linkedin/company/jobs: each posting in that list carries a job id. Pass that id here to expand a single role into its full detail. The id also appears in the numeric part of a LinkedIn job URL.

### How do I include required skills on a job posting?

Add the optional include_skills parameter to your request. When set, the response includes the skills the job posting lists, which is useful for matching candidates, building skill taxonomies, or analyzing hiring demand by skill.

### How much does the LinkedIn job endpoint cost?

Each request costs 5 credits on the advanced tier, and the response is one posting per call. New accounts get 100 free credits with no credit card, enough for 20 job-detail lookups before you ever need to upgrade.

### Can I use this for job-market analysis?

Yes, expanding postings into full detail is a common job-market and talent-intelligence use case. Combine it with /v1/linkedin/company/jobs to walk a company's roles, then pull descriptions and skills to analyze demand, seniority mix, and remote share.
