🌐Sourcing Tip Day 148: Use “Employee Badge Insights” on LinkedIn Posts to Find Active Contributors

Many candidates post achievements, promotions, certifications, or project updates on LinkedIn. These organic posts show real skills, recent activity, and high-quality leads.

👉 How to Use This Tip

🔍Search relevant posts using keywords like:
“Promoted to…”, “Completed certification…”, “Joined as…”, “Built…”, “Launched…”

➡️ Click on the people engaging with these posts — especially the original posters.

➡️ Look for badges such as:

➡️ LinkedIn Top Voice

➡️ Community Top Voice
These signals show credibility and strong content contribution.

➡️  Check comment history — it often reveals deeper skills, technical thinking, and mindset.

➡️ Why This Works

✔️ Active contributors show growth mindset + communication skills

✔️ Their posts reveal actual domain experience

✔️ Faster than cold searching through profiles

✔️ Ideal for niche hiring (IT, supply chain, analysts, engineering, design)

—

🚦 Example (IT Role)

If you’re hiring a React Developer, search for:

“Built this using React”

“Frontend UI redesign”

“Completed React Certification”

Engage with people who actively share project demos or certification achievements.
