Workflow
Progress:
- [ ] Step 1: Search for hiring-signal tweets in sector
- [ ] Step 2: (Optional) Scrape specific company accounts
- [ ] Step 3: Extract role and team info from tweet text
- [ ] Step 4: Score growth signal strength
- [ ] Step 5: Deliver hiring intelligence report
Step 1: Search Hiring Signals
Recommended — run_actor.js (handles waiting, output, and file saving automatically):
# Quick answer (prints table to chat)
node scripts/run_actor.js \
--actor "apidojo~tweet-scraper" \
--input '{"param": "value"}'
# Save as CSV
node scripts/run_actor.js \
--actor "apidojo~tweet-scraper" \
--input '{"param": "value"}' \
--output YYYY-MM-DD_results.csv --format csv
# Save as JSON
node scripts/run_actor.js \
--actor "apidojo~tweet-scraper" \
--input '{"param": "value"}' \
--output YYYY-MM-DD_results.json --format json
APIFY_TOKENmust be set in environment or.envfile.
If Apify MCP is available:
Tool: apify:run-actor
Actor: "apidojo~tweet-scraper"
Input:
{
"searchTerms": ["we're hiring [SECTOR]", "join our team [SECTOR]", "[ROLE] hiring [SECTOR]"],
"maxItems": 300
}
REST API fallback:
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/apidojo~tweet-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{
"searchTerms": ["we are hiring fintech", "join our team SaaS startup", "software engineer hiring"],
"maxItems": 300
}'
Step 2: Extract Role Signals from Tweet Text
role_mentioned = extract noun phrases after "hiring a/an", "looking for a/an", "seeking a"
team_mentioned = extract from: "engineering team", "sales team", "marketing", "product team"
urgency = "immediately", "ASAP", "urgent" → HIGH; "growing team" → MEDIUM; general → LOW
Step 3: Growth Signal Score
hiring_signal_score = (is_confirmed_company_account ? 1 : 0.5) * 0.30
+ (role_is_specific ? 1 : 0.5) * 0.25
+ (post_is_recent: ≤7 days = 1, 8-14 = 0.7, 15-30 = 0.4) * 0.25
+ (link_to_job_page ? 1 : 0) * 0.20
Growth tier: Multiple hiring tweets in 30 days = HIGH_GROWTH; 1-2 = STEADY_HIRE; no link = SIGNAL_ONLY
Step 4: Edge Cases
- Retweets from employee accounts: If a company employee retweets a job post, keep — it's still a valid signal; note it's not the company's official account
- Job boards posting on behalf of company: Filter out accounts named "JobsAt[Company]", staffing agencies, or accounts posting > 10 hiring tweets/day (aggregators)
- Role extraction fails: Note the tweet verbatim and mark
role = "unspecified"— still a growth signal - Same company posts 5 roles: Deduplicate by
author.username; count unique companies, not unique tweets
Output Format

## High-Growth Companies (Multiple Roles Posted)
| Company | @Handle | Roles Mentioned | Teams | Posts | Link to Jobs | Score |
|---------|---------|----------------|-------|-------|-------------|-------|
| [name] | @[handle] | [role list] | [eng/mktg] | [N] | [Yes/No] | [0.XX] |
## Single Hire Signals

## Role Distribution Across All Companies
| Role Category | # Companies Hiring | Urgency |
|--------------|-------------------|---------|

Troubleshooting
Results dominated by job boards: Add negative terms to search: -jobs -jobboard -staffing -recruiting
Sector too broad: Narrow with a sub-sector or specific stage: "Series A fintech" instead of "fintech".
Job links are broken/expired: Hiring tweets are posted in real-time; check within 48h for best link validity.
