If you’ve been job hunting on LinkedIn for remote video editing or post-production roles, you might be missing out on some of the best opportunities — and it’s not your fault.
By default, LinkedIn delays showing jobs posted in the last hour. That means when you see a role in your feed, dozens (or even hundreds) of applicants may have already applied.
For competitive creative positions like Video Editor, Motion Graphics Designer, or Post-Production Assistant, being early is everything.
Why This Matters for Editors
The jobs posted in the last 60 minutes often:
-
Have zero applicants when you first see them
-
Are less competitive and give you a much better chance to get noticed
-
Disappear quickly once LinkedIn starts pushing them to everyone else
Getting in early means your reel, portfolio, and resume actually have a shot at being reviewed before the hiring manager’s inbox is full.
