Case Study: New York City Public Schools boosts teacher hiring with LinkedIn Talent Solutions

New York City Public Schools boosts job views 69% with LinkedIn Talent Solutions

The New York City Public Schools, the largest school district in the United States, faced a historic national teacher shortage. Their challenge was to hire 5,000 qualified teachers annually, particularly in high-need areas like math and science, with a small recruitment team and limited resources. They partnered with LinkedIn Talent Solutions to find certified candidates and career changers with the right credentials.

Using LinkedIn Jobs, the vendor provided a targeted solution to reach a vast network of professionals. This strategy resulted in a 69% increase in job views and a 129% increase in apply-clicks for roles posted during the pilot period. LinkedIn enabled the district to efficiently build a pipeline of qualified candidates, increasing their chances of filling critical teaching vacancies.
