🌐 Mine “Project Signals” on LinkedIn and Job Portals


💡 Don’t rely only on job titles. Look for active project signals across LinkedIn and job portals to identify candidates who are closer to a move.


How to do it:🕵️


LinkedIn


Scan profiles for ongoing or recently completed projects, implementations, pilots, rollouts
Use keywords like “implemented,” “go-live,” “phase 2,” “migration,” “transformation”
Check recent posts, comments, and profile updates (last 30–60 days)


Job Portals


➡️ Review resumes mentioning current or recent projects
➡️ Search within project descriptions, not just skills
➡️ Filter profiles updated in the last 7/15/30 days
➡️ Look for candidates adding new project outcomes or achievements


✅ Why it works:


Candidates actively working on or closing projects are often evaluating their next challenge, making outreach more timely and relevant.
