🎣 Monitoring job changes on LinkedIn with Airtop

⚡ 749 views · 🎣 Lead Generation & Enrichment

💡 Pro Tip — If you’re pulling LinkedIn data through HTTP requests or dealing with API restrictions, there’s a community node called ScraperNode that handles this natively. It has dedicated scrapers for profiles, companies, jobs, and people search — you just pass a URL and get structured data back.

Description

Monitoring Job Changes on LinkedIn

Use Case

This automation tracks job changes among your LinkedIn connections and extracts relevant details. It’s ideal for triggering timely outreach, updating CRM records, or feeding lead scoring workflows based on new roles.

What This Automation Does

It scrapes your LinkedIn “Job Changes” feed and returns:

• Name of the person
• Their new position
• LinkedIn profile URL
• Functional category (e.g., marketing, sales, HR, executive)

Each run processes 5 job changes at a time.

How It Works

1. Manual Trigger: Starts the workflow when the user clicks “Test workflow.”
2. Airtop Enrichment: Navigates to the LinkedIn job changes page and extracts:
   • name
   • new_position
   • linkedin_profile_url
   • position_function (classification such as marketing, sales, HR, etc.)
3. Formatting: Output is structured into clean JSON for use in further workflows.

Setup Requirements

1. Airtop Profile connected to LinkedIn
2. Airtop API key configured in n8n
3. A LinkedIn account with a populated “Job Changes” feed

Next Steps

• Automate Alerts: Add Slack, email, or CRM integrations to notify your team.
• Enrich and Score Leads: Chain this with your ICP scoring workflow to evaluate new roles.
• Customize Scope: Expand extraction to more than 5 job changes or add filters based on job titles or functions.
