OpenAI Jobs Platform is preparing to enter the hiring market. The platform will compete with LinkedIn by using AI to match workers with companies. OpenAI plans to launch this service by mid-2026.
The platform will help companies find the right talent. Small businesses and local governments will also benefit from this AI-driven hiring tool. The main goal is to make job matching faster and more accurate. OpenAI Jobs Platform will focus on AI talent and skill verification.
This move is part of OpenAI’s plan to expand beyond ChatGPT. CEO Sam Altman wants the company to offer more applications. Fidji Simo, OpenAI’s CEO of Applications, will lead the jobs platform and other products. These may include a web browser and a social media app in the future.
OpenAI also plans to support job seekers with education. Through OpenAI Academy, learners can earn certifications in AI skills. A pilot program for these certifications will start in late 2025. This will help workers prove their AI fluency to employers.
The competition with LinkedIn is significant. LinkedIn, owned by Microsoft, already uses AI to match candidates and employers. OpenAI’s platform aims to provide additional benefits, such as small business support and local government hiring tools.
Experts say OpenAI Jobs Platform could change the hiring process. It will make it easier for businesses to find skilled workers. Job seekers will also gain opportunities to grow their careers with AI skills.
