For consultancies using data internally
The job
Give an outbound agency a repeatable signal play for every client: when a target account posts a relevant role, reach the hiring leader with a message tied to that need.
When
A target account posts a job that implies the client's product is needed (e.g. a first RevOps hire or a new security team).
Outcome
Agency clients reach accounts at the moment a need is public, so first touches cite a real reason to talk.
Lead recipe 1

Trigger client outbound campaigns from hiring signals

When to use it: A target account posts a job that implies the client's product is needed (e.g. a first RevOps hire or a new security team).

  1. Define per-client signal keywords and run POST /job_search/ daily (title, description keywords, location)
  2. Resolve each posting's company with POST /organization_search/ and filter to the client's ICP
  3. Find the hiring manager and peer stakeholders with POST /person_role_search/
  4. Fetch work_email from /person_contacts_lookup/work_emails/ and mobiles from POST /person_contacts_lookup/phone_numbers/ (Silver for reach)
  5. Write the posting title and date into the first line of the email and report signal-sourced meetings per client

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do consultancies use the job postings API?

Give an outbound agency a repeatable signal play for every client: when a target account posts a relevant role, reach the hiring leader with a message tied to that need. Search live and historical job postings by company, title and location to spot hiring signals. This page walks through 2 workflows with the exact steps.

What does the job postings API cost for consultancies?

Job postings API: 2 credits per request, charged whether or not data comes back. 1,000 job search requests use 2,000 credits: about $27 of Starter credits month to month, or about $20 on Pro with yearly billing. Self-serve plans are Starter, Growth, Pro and Scale. See plans and prices

Why do consultancies add the job postings API?

Reach the decision-makers on every project. Products like yours are judged on contacts that connect for every client, which is why the cost that counts is per result that reaches the right person. Run your own sample to see what the job postings API returns for your users before you build on it.

How do I find hiring manager from a job posting?

Define per-client signal keywords and run POST /job_search/ daily (title, description keywords, location). Find the hiring manager and peer stakeholders with POST /person_role_search/.

What do I send, and what comes back?

You send client ICP, employee range and IT role keywords. You get back work_email, companies with open IT roles, decision maker and hiring manager, from POST /job_search/, as JSON.

Can we show Forager data inside our product?

Yes, under platform terms. Self-serve plans cover internal use by your own team. Showing Forager data to your users, or passing records on, is licensed separately: talk to sales about volume and which fields your users need to see.

Am I charged when nothing is found?

Yes. Job postings API is charged per request, whether or not data comes back. Only mobile and email lookups are free when nothing is found, so try your inputs on a small run before you scale.

Is there a free way to try Forager?

Yes. Create a free account at app.forager.ai: it comes with $5 in free credits and an API key, and there is no credit card to sign up. Run it on records you already know, or book a demo and send us a list: we run it and show you what we find.

How do I find companies hiring IT support?

Find companies in range with an open IT role using POST /organization_search/ (job_post_title, job_post_is_active, employees_start, employees_end, locations). Find the owner, COO, CFO or operations lead with POST /person_role_search/ (organizations, role_title, role_is_current).

How do you check data quality?

The test that counts is your own: send a list of profiles you care about. We run it and show you what we find, number by number, so you can measure hit rate and connect rate yourself.

How is a job postings API different from scraping job boards?

Scraping job boards means maintaining a crawler per site and cleaning duplicates. A job postings API lets you search live and historical postings by company, title and location in one call and use hiring as a signal in your product.

Does Forager integrate with the tools we already use?

Native in Clay, partner-built in Deepline and called through the API from your own code. Everything else connects through the REST API with one API key.
