In what could be a direct threat to Microsoft-owned LinkedIn, social networking giant Facebook is experimenting with a 'job openings' tab on its business pages. "Based on the behaviour we've seen on Facebook, where many small businesses post about their job openings on their page, we're running a test for page admins to create job postings and receive applications from candidates," a Facebook spokesperson said. The new feature could not only be a threat to LinkedIn, but also to developers like Workable and Jobscore that build 'Jobs' tab applications which businesses can embed in their Facebook pages. The new feature may help companies drive traffic to their Facebook page beyond marketing their products in the News Feed, the report added.
