1.1 Workflow description

Title
Track LinkedIn hiring signals with Bright Data, OpenAI, Airtable, HubSpot and Slack
Workflow name
Track LinkedIn hiring signals with Bright Data, OpenAI, Airtable, HubSpot and Slack

How it works

  • A daily Schedule Trigger pulls active LinkedIn job-search URLs from Airtable
  • Bright Data Web Unlocker scrapes each search results page
  • GPT extracts structured job data from the raw HTML
  • A second GPT call scores each job as a HIGH / MEDIUM / LOW buying signal and drafts a personalized cold outreach email
  • HIGH/MEDIUM signals are pushed to HubSpot as deals and notified to the sales team in Slack

Set up steps

  • Setup time: ~10 minutes
  • Connect Airtable, Bright Data, OpenAI, HubSpot and Slack credentials
  • Add LinkedIn job-search URLs to your Airtable with Active = TRUE
  • Pick the Slack channel in the notification node
  • Activate the workflow
