LinkedIn has joined the ranks of tech firms laying off employees, cutting 716 jobs from its 20,000-strong workforce.
The professional social media network will also phase out its InCareers app in China.
CEO Ryan Roslansky said the move was aimed at streamlining the company’s operations, creating 250 new jobs while employees affected by the cuts in its sales, operations and support teams could apply for them.
After mostly withdrawing from China last year, LinkedIn will maintain a presence in the country to help companies operating there to hire and train employees outside the country.
