Signalbase Real Time Hiring

Real-time LinkedIn hiring signals with full company context for every job. Detect open roles within minutes of posting, filter by seniority, department, location, team size, and applicant count, and get every record enriched with industry, employee count, country, and founded year.

679k+ active job postings detected and growing every minute. Used inside data vendors, GTM teams, and platforms running signal-based outbound on hiring as a buying signal.

Why this beats most LinkedIn job scrapers

Most LinkedIn job scrapers on Apify return raw job data on a delay. Useful for job aggregation, useless for sales prospecting or signal-driven outbound. Two things change that here:

• Detection in under a minute. Continuous indexing, not hourly or daily scrapes. The job hits our API the moment LinkedIn surfaces it.
• Hiring as a buying signal, not a job posting. Every record is enriched with full company context — industry, employee count, country, founded year, LinkedIn URL — and the filter set is built for prospecting, not aggregation. Filter by seniority (c_level, vp, head), department, team size, and applicant count.

Hiring isn't just job data. It's a buying signal — companies that hire engineering leadership are companies about to spend on infrastructure.

Built for

• B2B sales and outbound teams prospecting on companies opening headcount in their ICP — new VP of Sales = new sales tech buyer
• AI SDR and GTM platforms triggering outbound when target companies post specific roles (CTO hire = engineering tooling pitch, CRO hire = sales tech pitch)
• B2B data vendors enriching company records with hiring velocity as a growth indicator
• Lead generation tools layering hiring activity on top of firmographics as a real buying signal
• Recruiting and competitive intelligence monitoring hiring patterns at competitors
• Investment research tracking hiring as an early indicator of company growth

FAQ

What's the difference between this and other LinkedIn job scrapers? Most scrapers return raw job data on a delay (hourly or daily). We continuously index LinkedIn jobs and enrich every posting with full company context — industry, employee count, country, founded year. The data source is similar; the speed, enrichment, and signal-focused filter set are not.

Do you cover ATS platforms like Greenhouse, Lever, or Workday? Not yet via this Actor. Direct ATS sourcing is on the Signalbase roadmap. If ATS coverage is important to your use case, get in touch at trysignalbase.com — we may have an early-access path.

What seniority levels are covered? Filter using the seniorities parameter. Available values include c_level, vp, head, director, manager, and individual contributor levels. For executive hires (highest-value buying signal), combine c_level,vp,head.

Can I filter by company size or geography? Yes. Use team_size for company size ranges (e.g. 51-200, 201-1000) and countries / states / city for geography. Combine with seniorities and departments for tightly targeted prospecting.

Can I monitor specific companies? Yes via the search parameter. For ongoing monitoring of a defined account list with webhook delivery, the direct Signalbase platform is a better fit than scheduled Apify runs. Get in touch at trysignalbase.com.

How do I avoid alerting on the same job twice? Every job has a unique id and jobId. Deduplicate on id across runs.

Can I get webhooks or higher volume? Yes, on the direct Signalbase platform. Apify is great for evaluation; production-grade trigger workflows with webhooks, custom seniority taxonomies, and dedicated rate limits live on the direct plan. Production access starts with a paid pilot scoped directly with the founding team. Get in touch at trysignalbase.com.

Rate limits

The underlying Signalbase API has rate limits. If you hit a 429 response, wait a few seconds and retry.
