Traject vs LinkedIn
What LinkedIn is for
LinkedIn is the global reference for professional networking, job search and visibility to recruiters. Over one billion members across more than 200 countries. It is today the first point of contact between a tech candidate and a recruiter, and the first showcase that freelance clients look at.
What LinkedIn does well
- Build a recruiter-visible professional profile.
- One-click apply through Easy Apply.
- Follow the companies you care about and catch the right timing.
- Network with former colleagues, alumni and peers.
- Publish content to build a public reputation on your expertise.
How Traject goes further than LinkedIn
LinkedIn gets you market exposure: that is the visibility phase. Traject runs the rest, end-to-end. Each application tracked in a kanban (sent, in progress, interview, offer), automatic follow-ups when the recruiter goes silent, dashboard view of your full pipeline, CV tailored to the role in one click from your master CV, written interview simulation with an AI, and salary negotiation prep with 2026 market data. LinkedIn puts you in the race; Traject walks you all the way to signature.
