Find Saved Posts and Jobs on LinkedIn
To find your saved posts and jobs on LinkedIn, go to your profile menu and select “Saved items� (or “My Items� on the mobile app). This page shows everything you have bookmarked, with tabs to filter between posts, jobs, and other content.
Background: Why LinkedIn Saves Matter
LinkedIn’s save feature is a bookmarking tool for professional content. It lets you stash job postings you want to apply to later, articles you plan to read, and posts you find useful for reference. Unlike “like� or “share,� saving is private—only you can see your saved list. This is especially helpful for job seekers who want to compare roles without applying immediately, or for professionals who want to build a reading list of industry insights.
How to Access Saved Items on Desktop
On a computer, the saved items page is a few clicks away:
- Click the “Me� icon at the top of your LinkedIn homepage.
- Select “Saved items� from the dropdown menu.
- You will land on a page that shows all your saved posts and jobs. Use the tabs at the top to filter by type: Posts, Jobs, or All.
If you do not see “Saved items� in the dropdown, it may be under “Resources� or “Settings & Privacy� depending on your account version. In most current layouts, it is directly in the “Me� menu.
How to Access Saved Items on Mobile (App and Browser)
The mobile app uses slightly different wording:
- Tap your profile photo in the top left corner.
- Tap “Saved items� (or “My Items� on some versions).
- You will see a list with tabs for Posts, Jobs, and All.
On a mobile browser (not the app), the menu is usually the same as desktop: tap the “Me� icon and choose “Saved items.� If you cannot find it, try typing linkedin.com/my-items/saved/ directly into your browser’s address bar while logged in.
What You Can Do With Saved Posts and Jobs
Once you are on the saved items page, you can manage your bookmarks:
- Filter by type (posts, jobs, articles, or all).
- Remove a saved item by clicking the bookmark icon again or using the “Remove� option.
- Apply directly to a saved job by clicking the job title, which takes you to the job posting.
- Share a saved post with your network (this does not remove it from your saved list).
You can also sort saved jobs by date saved or by relevance, depending on the interface. The search bar on the saved items page lets you find a specific saved item by keyword.
Common Problems and How to Fix Them
Users often report these issues:
- “I saved a job but it’s not in my list.� This usually happens when you saved a job from a company career page or a job aggregator that is not a LinkedIn job posting. Only jobs posted on LinkedIn can be saved to your LinkedIn account.
- “The saved items page is blank.� Try refreshing the page, logging out and back in, or clearing your browser cache. If you are on the app, update it to the latest version.
- “I see posts but no jobs tab.� The tabs may be hidden if you have no saved jobs. Click “All� to see everything, or save a job first.
- “My saved items disappeared.� Check that you are logged into the correct account. If you have multiple LinkedIn profiles (e.g., personal and company), you may be looking at the wrong one.
If none of these help, LinkedIn’s help center has a dedicated page for saved items, and you can contact support through the “Help� menu.
Comparisons: Saved vs. Collections vs. Applied Jobs
LinkedIn offers several ways to track content:
- Saved items – private bookmarks for posts, jobs, and articles.
- Collections – a feature that lets you organize saved items into folders (available on some accounts). You can create a collection like “Data Science Roles� and drag saved jobs into it.
- Applied jobs – a separate list under “Jobs� > “My Jobs� that shows positions you have applied to, along with their status.
If you are job hunting, you may want to use both: save jobs you are interested in, and then move them to a collection once you have applied. This keeps your pipeline organized.
Alternatives and Extra Tips
If you prefer not to use LinkedIn’s built-in saving, you can:
- Bookmark the job posting in your browser’s bookmark manager.
- Email the job link to yourself.
- Use a third-party job tracker app that integrates with LinkedIn.
However, the built-in feature is the most reliable because it syncs across devices and is tied to your profile. One extra tip: you can save a post directly from your feed by clicking the bookmark icon (three dots or a bookmark symbol) on the post. For jobs, click the “Save� button on the job posting page.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can other people see what I save on LinkedIn?
No, your saved items are private. Only you can see your saved posts and jobs. Your network cannot see your saved list, and you will not get notifications when someone saves your content.
How do I unsave a post or job?
Go to your saved items page, find the item, and click the bookmark icon again (or the “Remove� button). You can also unsave directly from the original post by clicking the bookmark icon again.
Is there a limit to how many items I can save?
LinkedIn does not publicly state a specific limit. In practice, users have saved hundreds of items without issue. If you hit a limit, you will see an error message.
Why did a saved job disappear?
The job may have been removed by the employer, or the posting may have expired. LinkedIn automatically removes saved jobs that are no longer active. You can check the “Jobs� tab to see if it is still listed.
Can I save a post from a company page or a group?
Yes, you can save any post that appears in your feed, including posts from company pages and groups. The bookmark icon appears on the post itself.
Does saving a job notify the employer?
No, saving a job is completely anonymous. The employer will not know you saved the posting. They only see when you apply.
