Ask HN: Lightweight CRMs with hiring data (out-of-the-box)?

Re:Ask HN: Lightweight CRMs with hiring data (out-of-the-box)? by noashavit on Tuesday June 04, 2024 @11:20AM (#40575513)

There are prospect databases like Apollo.io and zoominfo that let you filter based on prospects new to their job. Add that to a company size/stage/revenue filter and you should be at least 80% there.

Alternatively, you might consider scraping relevant job sites/forums/boards for job postings for UX research/designer.

I hope this helps. Good luck!

Thanks! I took a look at Apollo, and even with large discount found the price quite steep.

Nice idea with scraping job sites. Have you had any luck with any particular one?

Kinda want to avoid another CRM, and just get a smart list that I can build my own workflow around.

I have a solution to scrape job portals like LinkedIn, Indeed, and a couple more. But the jobs data's value plummet very sharply over time and extracting this data at a large scale is quite extensive. Not sure what is your though.

This sounds interesting. I saw that you built https://datachroma.com/ - is this what you're referring to?

We used indeed as the pilot. Don’t try this on LI as your account will be banned.

You can also test out clay- they have a free tier that I think includes new job alerts based on LinkedIn.
