Frequently Asked Questions

How does Lead Finder help with candidate sourcing?

Lead Finder searches professional databases by job title, industry, location, and seniority to build targeted candidate lists with names, titles, companies, and LinkedIn profiles. It's most effective for passive candidate outreach before posting publicly.

Can Deep Research provide legally reliable employment law information?

Deep Research synthesizes from publicly available government sources, legal news, and HR publications. For compliance decisions, always verify with qualified employment counsel — use it to research and prepare questions, not as a substitute for legal advice.

How current is the job posting data for benchmarking?

Job Search pulls from live job boards and aggregators, so listings reflect current market conditions. This makes it useful for benchmarking active demand, current salary ranges being advertised, and real-time requirements.

Can I use these tools for international HR research?

Yes. Deep Research and Job Search have good coverage of major international markets. Employment law research works well for UK, EU, Canada, and Australia. Compensation benchmarking quality varies by country — strongest for English-speaking markets.

How is compensation data sourced?

Compensation benchmarks are synthesized from job postings, salary surveys, industry reports, and published compensation studies. For HR-grade pay band analysis, treat these as market signals to triangulate alongside dedicated compensation survey subscriptions.
