Young people seeking employment in China have turned to Tinder in a bid to find work after LinkedIn was pulled from the country. LinkedIn CEO Ryan Roslansky cited “shifts in customer behavior and slower revenue growth” as the reasons behind the decision. They plan to completely phase out their networking service called InCareer in China by Aug. 9, 2023. Chinese news outlet Sixth Tone reported that many young professionals are highlighting their skills on their Tinder profiles as a result. One Peking University graduate told Sixth Tone that a Tinder date gave her tips on how to secure an internship at a firm he worked for. Videos offering tips on how to use Tinder to your advantage when looking for work were posted online. They include matching with people who work in your industry of choice before sharing your struggles and asking for advice. "Tinder is not a place to promote businesses to try and make money. Similarly, users also shouldn’t advertise, promote or share social handles or links to gain followers, fundraise or campaign," a Tinder spokesperson told Sixth Tone. According to the National Bureau of Statistics, unemployment among China’s youth hit an all-time high of 21.3% in June 2023.
