Hiring signals for VP of sales, start to finish

What follows is the honest set of ways to get hiring signals on VP of sales, 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 VP of sales.

What is actually going wrong

Hiring signals for VP of sales one at a time is fine, and a list of them is not. VP of sales sit in one function and one seniority band, and both move with company size, which shapes hiring signals. What catches people out on VP of sales, hiring signals included: the same title means three different jobs at a startup, a scaleup and an enterprise. If you would rather try it than read about it, GTM Hiring Signal Scraper does hiring signals for VP of sales today.

Why anyone bothers

Nobody advertises for VP of sales speculatively, so the money exists before the advert does.

Traditional Search Tools

  • The job advert itself, for VP of sales. 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.
