Choose where applications go
Applications completed on an external website are managed in lemonly. LinkedIn says it does not retain those applications in Recruiter or include them in its applicant counts.
1. Get your lemonly job link
- Sign in to lemonly and open your role.
- Starting a new role? Choose Create role, add the role details, check the requirements, set up the chat interview, then review and create it.
- In the Your role is live panel, choose Copy link.
Already closed that panel? Open the role, choose Settings using the gear button at the top right, then choose Copy beside the job link at the top of Role settings.
Copy the public job link from lemonly, rather than the address of your private role report.
2. Add it to LinkedIn
Open your job post
In LinkedIn, open Jobs and choose Post a job, or edit the role you already posted. Complete the title, company, location and description.
Choose an external website
In Job settings, find Manage applicants or Application method. Choose the external website option. Some versions call it “Direct applicants to an external site to apply”.
Paste your lemonly job link
Use the full link you copied from lemonly as the website address. It should open this specific role, rather than a general company page.
Review and save
Check the job details and application destination, then save or publish when ready. Review any promotion budget before confirming.
3. Check the destination
Open the candidate-facing job post and use its Apply button. The destination should be your lemonly page for the same role. If it opens LinkedIn’s application form, revisit the application method.
Confirm the role title, company and application page look right. You can check the destination without submitting an application.
If your screen looks different
