How to Check Which Jobs You Applied For on LinkedIn in 2026?

The simplest way to check which jobs you’ve applied for on LinkedIn is to go to your My Jobs section. Click on the “Jobs” icon at the top of your LinkedIn homepage, then select “My Jobs” from the dropdown menu. Under the “Applied” tab, you’ll see a list of every position you’ve submitted an application to, along with the date you applied and the current status (e.g., “Applied,” “Viewed,” or “Interview”).

If you’re using the mobile app, tap the “Jobs” tab at the bottom, then tap the briefcase icon in the top right corner (or your profile picture) to access “My Jobs.” The same “Applied” filter is there.

One thing to watch out for: LinkedIn only shows applications you submitted through its “Easy Apply” button or through the official LinkedIn job posting page. If you were redirected to an external company career site and applied there, that application won’t appear in your LinkedIn history. To track those, I recommend keeping a personal spreadsheet or using a dedicated job search tracker.

For a quick reference, here’s a breakdown of the steps:

Step	Action	Result
1	Click “Jobs” on the top navigation bar	Opens job search area
2	Select “My Jobs” from the dropdown	Shows all saved and applied jobs
3	Click the “Applied” tab	Filters only submitted applications
4	Scroll through the list	See company, role, date, and status

If you’ve applied to dozens of jobs, you can also use the search bar inside “My Jobs” to filter by company name or keyword. This helps you find a specific application without scrolling endlessly.

One more tip: LinkedIn occasionally archives old applications after a certain period (usually 6–12 months), so if you’re looking for something from last year, it might be gone. To avoid losing track, I always download my application history using the “Data privacy” settings under “Settings & Privacy.” Go to “Get a copy of your data” and select “Jobs – Applications” – LinkedIn will email you a JSON file with the full list.

I used to panic when I couldn’t remember if I’d applied to a certain role. Now I just check the “Applied” tab under “My Jobs” on desktop. It’s super straightforward – no fancy tricks. The only catch is that external applications don’t show up, so I always screenshot the confirmation page and save it in a folder. Honestly, LinkedIn’s built-in tracker is fine for Easy Apply jobs, but for anything else, you’re on your own. I’d recommend setting up a simple Google Sheet with columns for company, role, date, and status. That way you never lose track.

On the mobile app, it’s even easier. Open LinkedIn, tap Jobs at the bottom, then tap your profile icon in the top right corner. That takes you to “My Jobs.” The “Applied” tab is right there – swipe to it. The mobile layout is pretty clean, so you can see all your applications in one scroll. I like that it shows the time since you applied (e.g., “2 weeks ago”) rather than a specific date. But again, only LinkedIn-native applications are tracked. If you use the app a lot, this is the fastest way to check.

I’m a bit of a data nerd, so I use LinkedIn Premium to get extra insights. In the “My Jobs” section, Premium users see a “Demographics” or “Insights” tab that shows how your application compares to others (like your skills match score). But for the basic list of jobs you applied to, the free version works just fine. The key difference is that Premium gives you “Who’s viewed your profile” and “Interview insights” after you apply, which helps prioritize follow-ups. For checking the actual list, it’s the same process – just go to “My Jobs” > “Applied.”

What I do is a bit more manual but foolproof. After every application, I copy the job title and company into a dedicated note on my phone. Then, once a week, I cross-check that against LinkedIn’s “Applied” tab to see if the status changed (e.g., from “Applied” to “Interview”). LinkedIn’s tracking is decent, but it doesn’t always update statuses in real time. So I rely on my own notes for accuracy. The “Applied” list is still useful for a quick scan, but I wouldn’t trust it as the only record. If you’re serious about job hunting, keep your own log and use LinkedIn as a supplement.
