LinkedIn Saved Jobs: Where They Are and What to Do

Saved jobs live in LinkedIn's Job tracker, on the Saved tab. This guide is our reading of two LinkedIn Help pages: how to reach the jobs you saved and the jobs you applied for, what the More icon lets you do, and how many jobs you can keep. It ends with advice of our own, so the list does not turn into a pile.

Yago is not affiliated with LinkedIn. LinkedIn is a trademark of its owner, used here only to name the service. What this page says LinkedIn does is our reading of its Help Center, linked under Sources and checked on 31 October 2026. Short quotations in quotation marks are LinkedIn's words. LinkedIn can change its pages and menus: if a step does not match what you see, trust LinkedIn's page. What we label as our view, our steps or our advice is ours, and our advice is general advice, not research.

Save a job

Open the job, then use the Save button on its page. In the app, tap Save there.

Reach your saved jobs

Both routes end on the Saved tab of the Job tracker.

On a computer: go to Jobs at the top of the page, then pick Job tracker from the left-hand menu: your saved jobs are on the Saved tab, each with a More icon beside it.

On the mobile app: tap the Jobs icon, then Job tracker; the Saved tab is there too, with a More icon beside each job.

What the More icon does

The More icon lets you apply, change a job's stage, archive it or unsave it; they are alternatives, not steps, and the Help page lists the same four in the app.

The limit, and removing jobs in bulk

The Help page said, when we checked on 31 October 2026, that a member can hold up to 2000 jobs. The count covers saved and archived jobs; jobs you have applied for do not count towards it.

On that date it also said there was “no way to unsave multiple jobs at once”, so jobs have to be removed one at a time.

Reach the jobs you applied for

A job you applied for using LinkedIn can be opened again whenever you like.

On a computer: go to the Jobs icon at the top of the page, pick Job tracker from the left-hand menu, then open the Applied tab: opening a job there shows its details page and, for a job you applied for on LinkedIn, the resume you used.

On the mobile app: tap the Jobs icon, then Job tracker, directly below the search bar; open the dropdown, choose Applied and tap Update, then tap a job to see its page.

LinkedIn's two Help pages describe the app screen differently: the saved-jobs page has a Saved tab there, and this one has a dropdown. We give each as its page does, so if your app looks different, go by what you see.

Our advice: do not let the list become a pile

General advice, not research. A saved list helps only if you come back to it, and a long one can feel like progress while nothing is being sent.

  • Come back to the list on a day you choose. For each job, decide: apply, archive or unsave.
  • Our view: if you use the Change stage action, decide what each stage means to you before you start, and use it the same way for every job.
  • Our view: a posting may change or be taken down between the day you save it and the day you apply, so copy what you need to answer into your own notes first.
  • Read the posting again before you apply, and change your CV to fit it. Yago's CV scan does not compare your CV with a specific job description. The only input besides the CV is an optional target role.

To see how your CV reads for a role, scan it in the CV Lab. Your first 3 CV scans are free.

Frequently asked questions

Where are my saved jobs on LinkedIn?

On the Saved tab of the Job tracker. On a computer you reach it from Jobs at the top of the page; in the app, from the Jobs icon. The routes are above.

How many jobs can I save on LinkedIn?

When we checked on 31 October 2026, the Help page said up to 2000. A job you have applied for is not counted, but archived jobs are.

Can I unsave all my saved jobs at once?

Not as far as the Help page said when we checked on 31 October 2026: it offered nothing for removing jobs in bulk, so jobs go one at a time. Pages like that change, so look at the current page if it matters.

What is the difference between archiving and unsaving a job?

Archiving puts a job into an Archived list, and unsaving takes it off your Saved list. Both are choices under the More icon, and archived jobs still count towards the limit of 2000.

The steps do not match what I see. What now?

Menus can change, so trust LinkedIn's own Help page over ours. The pages are listed under Sources, with the date we checked them.
