2858405 - LinkedIn error Job was dropped:true Invalid Field: /company - Recruiting Posting

Symptom

My jobs are not posted on LinkedIn with the configuration error and posting logs saying "Job was dropped:true Invalid Field: /company".

Environment

 SAP SuccessFactors Recruiting Posting

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Check the posting logs of the posting error (see SAP Knowledge Base Article 3276360)
  2. Received the error Job was dropped: true Invalid Field: /company

Cause

This error is generally caused by a restriction rule from the customer that they have previously requested to LinkedIn to limit the jobs being placed on their company page.

Resolution

You will need to reach out to LinkedIn with the following request:

“My jobs are failing to post through my posting partner due to an error stating “Invalid Field: /company”. Can you please escalate a case to the ETS team so they can review my company’s restrictions?
My LinkedIn company ID is #####.”

You should also download the logs (see SAP Knowledge Base Article 3276360) and share them with LinkedIn.
