Job Market Intelligence 🎯

Track hiring trends, detect company growth, and get actionable business signals from job postings.

🚀 What Makes This Different?

Most job tools just list openings. This Actor provides INTELLIGENCE.

✅ What This Actor Does:

1. Smart Discovery: Automatically finds company career pages
2. Multi-Source: Scrapes 50+ career pages + remote job boards
3. Historical Tracking: Detects hiring spikes and growth trends
4. Business Signals: Converts job data into actionable insights
5. Filtering: Department, location, seniority filtering

Result: Know which companies are growing, hiring, and ready to buy BEFORE your competitors.

💰 Who Is This For?

🎯 Sales Teams

• Use hiring as a buying signal - "They're hiring 10 ML engineers = need our ML tool"
• Get alerted when target accounts start hiring sprees
• Perfect timing for outreach

📊 Market Researchers

• Competitive intelligence

💼 Recruitment Agencies
