Frequently Asked Questions

How does Lead Finder compare to LinkedIn Recruiter?

Lead Finder searches across multiple professional databases and aggregators, providing broader coverage in some specialisations. It works well as a complementary source for building targeted lists, especially when LinkedIn penetration is lower in a niche.

Can I use Job Search to monitor competitor hiring patterns?

Yes — Job Search lets you search by company name, which reveals active roles, hiring volume, and the types of talent a company is pursuing. This is useful for both BD research and understanding competitive salary expectations.

How accurate is the salary benchmarking from Deep Research?

Deep Research synthesises from job postings, salary surveys, and published compensation data. For senior and specialised roles, treat it as directional market intelligence. For client-facing compensation advice, cross-reference with dedicated salary survey data.

How can People Search help verify a candidate's background?

People Search surfaces publicly available professional information including employment history, online publications, speaking engagements, and social profiles. It doesn't replace formal reference checks but helps surface context and verify public claims.

Can content repurposing tools write outreach that doesn't sound AI-generated?

Content Repurposer generates strong draft outreach that requires personalisation before sending. The best results come from providing specific context about the role, company, and what makes it compelling for the candidate persona you're targeting.
