# LinkedIn Job Search Find decision-makers at companies that are actively hiring. LinkedIn Job Search identifies growth-stage companies through job postings, resolves company profiles, and extracts the most senior decision-maker at each company. ## How It Works Job search is not a standalone search type - it is integrated into LinkedIn Content Search as the **Hiring Signals** intent category. When a content search runs, hiring signal detection is included automatically. Additional settings let you configure the job search parameters. ### 1. AI-Generated Role Targets AutoReach generates job title keywords tailored to your offer using AI, based on your offer description, name, and target audience. Additional niche titles are generated from industry-specific terminology. **Example for a Sales Automation Platform:** * "Sales operations manager" * "Sales pipeline builder" * "CRM implementation consultant" * "VP of sales operations" **Example for HR Analytics:** * "People analytics lead" * "HR metrics manager" * "Head of people operations" ### 2. Job Listing Discovery For each role target, AutoReach searches LinkedIn Jobs filtered by your offer's preferred locations. Job data includes the job title, company name, location, workplace type (Remote/Hybrid/On-site), and posting date. ### 3. Company Resolution After collecting jobs across all role targets, AutoReach deduplicates by company and fetches full company profiles- including industry, staff count, headquarters location, website, and specialties. The list is capped at your configured **Max Companies** limit. ### 4. Decision-Maker Discovery For each company, AutoReach finds employees and selects the **most senior decision-maker**- prioritizing C-suite, founders, and VPs. One decision-maker per company is extracted to ensure focused outreach. ### 5. Lead Enrichment and Scoring Each discovered decision-maker is added to your lead database and queued for enrichment and scoring based on your enrichment settings. ## Competitor Customer Detection When your offer has competitors configured, LinkedIn Job Search automatically discovers **competitor customers**- companies posting jobs that require experience with competing products. Decision-makers at these companies are extracted and tagged with elevated priority. This runs automatically as part of the content search pipeline when **Hiring Signals** is enabled and competitors are defined. ## Search Parameters These are configured within the LinkedIn content search settings: | Parameter | Default | Description | | --------------------- | ------- | ------------------------------------------------------------ | | **Max Jobs Per Role** | 100 | Max job postings to collect per role target (slider: 25–200) | | **Max Companies** | 30 | Max companies to process (slider: 10–50) | ## Best Practices 1. **Rely on AI-generated titles.** The AI generates domain-specific role targets based on your offer. These yield higher-quality matches than generic titles. 2. **Combine with other intent categories.** Run **Hiring Signals** alongside **Pain Points** or **Solution Seeking** in a single content search to maximize coverage. 3. **Monitor company profiles.** The resolved company data (industry, staff count, funding) helps validate whether a company is in your ICP before outreach. 4. **Enable Buyer Expansion.** Turn on daily recurring to catch new job postings and hiring activity continuously. 5. **Leverage competitor customer detection.** If you have competitors defined in your offer, this feature automatically finds companies already paying for solutions like yours. ## Example Workflow **Offer:** "People analytics and HR intelligence platform" **AI generates role targets:** * "Head of People Operations" * "People Analytics Manager" * "HR Technology Lead" **Result:** Job search finds job postings across the roles, identifies the hiring companies, resolves their profiles (industry, size, HQ), and extracts the most senior decision-maker at each. Competitor customer detection also finds companies hiring for roles requiring experience with competing HR platforms. ## Troubleshooting **Getting too many irrelevant job postings?** * Reduce the Max Jobs per Role slider to limit volume * Reduce the Max Companies slider to focus on the best matches **Decision-makers don't seem relevant?** * AutoReach prioritizes C-suite and VPs. Combine with [LinkedIn People Search](/finding-leads/linkedin-people-search.md) to find specific roles at companies discovered through job search. **Not finding enough companies?** * Increase the Max Jobs per Role slider * Check if your target industry actively posts on LinkedIn Jobs ## Next Steps * [**LinkedIn People Search**](/finding-leads/linkedin-people-search.md): Find additional decision-makers at companies discovered through job search * [**LinkedIn Content Search**](/finding-leads/linkedin-content-search.md): Discover professionals discussing challenges related to hiring activity * [**Enrichment Pipeline**](/enrichment/pipeline.md): See how discovered leads get enriched with full profile and company data --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
