Enterprise account executives: the honest take on hiring signals
What follows is the honest set of ways to get hiring signals on enterprise account executives, including the ones that are not ours. Mamba Labs builds the Apify actors named here, so GTM Hiring Signal Scraper is something you run yourself against your own list of enterprise account executives.
Where this starts
Hiring signals for enterprise account executives looks like the easy case and is not. Enterprise account executives sit in one function and one seniority band, and both move with company size, which shapes hiring signals. One thing hiring signals on enterprise account executives rarely accounts for: the same title means three different jobs at a startup, a scaleup and an enterprise. GTM Hiring Signal Scraper carries 1 ready made setup for hiring signals on enterprise account executives.
The method
- Start with one of enterprise account executives you already know, so a wrong hiring signals answer is obvious rather than plausible.
- Run GTM Hiring Signal Scraper across your list of enterprise account executives, which carries 1 ready made setup for hiring signals.
- Read ten rows of hiring signals on enterprise account executives by hand before you trust the rest of the list.
Traditional Search Tools
- The job advert itself, for enterprise account executives. 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.
