USE CASE:

Reading hiring signals for community managers

This page is about hiring signals for community managers: the options you actually have, what each one costs, and which one we would pick. Mamba Labs builds the Apify actors named here, so GTM Hiring Signal Scraper is something you run yourself against your own list of community managers.

The situation

Community managers skew hiring signals, for a reason specific to them. Any hiring signals method has to survive this: community managers sit in one function and one seniority band, and both move with company size. What catches people out on community managers, hiring signals included: the same title means three different jobs at a startup, a scaleup and an enterprise. We keep 1 preconfigured task for hiring signals on community managers, across 1 tool.

What is at stake

The gap between the advert going up and the first hire starting is the whole window on community managers, and it closes without warning.

Traditional Search Tools

  • The job advert itself, for community managers. Free, and the responsibilities section says what the title actually means there.
  • LinkedIn Sales Navigator. Its hiring filter is decent at company level and tells you almost nothing about which roles. You get the signal without the detail that makes the first line worth reading.
  • LinkUp, Revelio or a jobs data vendor. Real coverage, real history, and priced for a data team rather than a two person sales function. Worth it if you are building a product on the data.
  • Google alerts on a careers page. Free and unreliable. Most applicant tracking pages render their listings in JavaScript, so the alert never fires.
  • Read the job boards yourself. Open the careers page of every account on your list, once a week, and note what changed. It works. It costs about four minutes per company, so a 500 account list is a full time job for one person.
