# LinkedIn Profile Scraper

**Use case:** 

Search LinkedIn people by job title or skill and export the results as a clean list. This example looks up software engineers and returns the name, headline, current role, company, location and profile link for each match. Use it to build a candidate shortlist, to map a market, or to enrich a CRM that only has company names.
