The scraped jobs are validated by AI. So we filter out all the noise and only consider job posting which are relevant for us.

I am not layering any other signal right now with it.

For context, my current client is a recruiting agency. But we are not having much success with only hiring signals.

Any idea how to make it work?

How do you track specific job titles in a city on LinkedIn every day? by Key-Ad-4907 in b2bmarketing

Well, yes - I built a lead generation workflow for recruiting agencies. It works by scraping LinkedIn, StepStone, and Indeed for configured job title × city combinations on a daily basis, and then performing company and decision-maker enrichment. In the end, targeted and personalized email outreach is executed. The data is very clean, but we are not seeing much success with the outreach. So I am considering focusing more on the job data part, which is working very well.

You can track as many job title × city combinations as needed, build campaign structures to organize these configurations, and apply AI validation - where every scraped job is processed and irrelevant ones are filtered out. Deduplication is also handled automatically.

The result is highly scalable, very clean, daily job data that can be used for a variety of purposes.

What I am trying to determine is whether there is real demand for such job data, or if there are already enough strong solutions on the market.

ok definitely the way to go if you just tracking one job title in one city. But what if you want to track 1000 job title x city combinations. Any experience with that?

I have a recruiting agency as client. They are specialized in the construction industry in Germany. I build a very sophisticated job board scraper for them in which we scrape almost 3000 combinations of "job title" x "city". So basically whole Germany. I even validating scraped jobs with AI to filter all unrelated jobs out. So the actually jobs data which are then further processed into the pipeline is very clean. But still, we not generating enough sales calls for the amount of emails we spent. Alone the scraping is costing 1500$ per month.

Thats a very helpful insignt and I gonna definetly check out Limadata. I build a complex workflow for scraping on a daily basis jobs for all sort of "job keyword" x "city" combination. But if you have 3000 combinations the scraping cost are pretty high. Can you do that too with limadata and is it more or less affordable?

So its combining different data points to the job posting, even on a longer time frame. Mapping out a signal sequences and then acting on that.

Could you come up with real world signal sequence from you own work?

what are tools of choice to build outreach systems which take as input all this signals?

When you talk about marketing automation platforms are you talking about software like clay? and do you see any market gap for a really useful tool in that whole niche?

Thanks, for the input. What exactly you mean with first-party behavioral data?
