What does the passage mainly discuss? PASSAGE PASSAGE PASSAGE LinkedIn announced a new standalone "LinkedIn Students" app, aimed at helping soon-to-be college graduates search for jobs that could relieve some of the major stress students can face hunting for their first job out of college. To join the app, students share their college, major and graduation date. If they don't already have a LinkedIn profile, they'll be asked to make one. The app's design resembles swiping(刷卡) through a deck of cards. The first card shows users a role they might like with accompanying information such as a job description, skills needed for the role, its median salary, related job openings and similar positions a student might find interesting. Cards then show recommended companies and alumni(校友) students should consider contacting, typically professionals who have graduated within the last five years. The format breaks up content into bite-sized pieces to make it easy to start and stop sessions on-the-go, for example during a commute or when the user has a few spare minutes. LinkedIn first piloted the apps at San Jose State University and the University of Central Florida. In tests, the format helped make job searching feel less stressful, the company said. Tests also showed that students preferred the professional feel of the current app to more Snapchat-like designs that were considered earlier. College career centers around the country can share job postings and career-related events with LinkedIn to appear in the app, viewable to their specific student body. The app serves up work-related content and videos, for example, articles about interviewing or negotiating a salary. It also features a small number of career-related sponsored posts by JP Morgan in an "Extra Credit" tab(标签), which prompts students to fill out a more detailed profile. A star button on each card, whether for an article, person, role or company, gives students a way to indicate their preferences and get better recommendations. The app launched in English on iOS and Android in the U.S. on Monday and should become available in more countries over time.
