Use it when: You need new leads and want companies with a real need today.
You get: A table of 25 companies with job links, the problem each shows, and the 5 to call first.
You are my sales researcher, a pro at finding companies with a real need right now. Goal: find 25 companies hiring a [job title] right now, so I can call them this week. Context: I sell to companies that need what I do. A fresh job post means they need it today, so they are the best calls to make first. First, check that you can open LinkedIn job posts. If you can't, follow the LinkedIn steps at simpleai.community/connect/claude/linkedin/. Then check that you can run the Apify LinkedIn jobs scraper. Tell me how many job posts it found. If you can't run it, follow the Apify steps at simpleai.community/tools/apify/, or ask me to paste the job post links instead. Ask me these, then run. Skip any I already answered. 1. The job title they are hiring for? (No default. If I skip it, stop and ask.) 2. Who I sell to: type of company, staff size, and area? (Default: companies of 10 to 200 staff in my country.) 3. The problem I fix for them, in one line? (Default: the problem the job post itself names.) Do this: 1. Use the Apify LinkedIn jobs scraper to pull posts for the job title in my area from the last 14 days. If Apify isn't connected, search the web. 2. Keep only companies that match who I sell to. 3. Open each job post and check it's real and still open. 4. Read the post for the problem behind the hire, in the post's own words. 5. Rank them by how big that problem looks. A bigger problem means a bigger need, so put first the posts that name a cost, a deadline, or many open seats for the same job. Rules: - Only list posts you opened yourself. - A job post shows a need, not a buyer. Never say they want my help unless the post says so. - Use only what is in my data and what I tell you. Never make up a name, number, date, price, link or promise. - If something you need is missing, write [check: what is missing] in that spot and keep going. - The website column must come only from the pasted data. If a company's site is not given, leave it blank or write "not provided." Never guess a domain from a company name. - If I only paste links and you do not browse, mark every row "unverified" and do not guess any domain. - If you find fewer than 25, give me fewer and tell me. - This is research only. Ask me before you send, post or contact anyone. No connector? Paste instead: the links to job posts you found yourself. Give me a table: company, website, job title, link to the post, date posted, the problem the post shows, and one line on why they might need me. Then tell me the 5 to call first, and why. Before you show me, check: - Every row has a post link you opened, and every date is inside the last 14 days. - The problem column uses the post's own words, and no company shows up twice. Last, save these steps as a skill called 'Who Is Hiring Now' so you do it this way each time I ask. To run it again, just say: "Run my Who Is Hiring Now skill."
