First In

See how crowded a job is before you click.

First In is a Chrome extension that puts the applicant count on every job in LinkedIn search, and hides the ones you do not want to see.

What it does

What it does not do

What it costs

The applicant count on every job is free, for as long as you use it. The filters are free for 7 days, with nothing to sign up for. After that a single payment unlocks them for good: $4.99 at the launch price. No subscription.

Good to know

The count is the one LinkedIn records: people who applied, or clicked Apply, through LinkedIn. Applications sent straight to a company's site are not in it.

Works with LinkedIn set to English, French, Spanish or German. LinkedIn limits how fast job pages can be read; First In stays under that limit, so on a busy page a few counts can take a moment to appear.
