Project Detail

Description

I’m looking to put together a database of senior managers in the recruitment industry in the UK from www.linkedin.com.

Part 1 – Selecting Recruitment Companies in the UK.

Top right hand search box, search companies and type in “recruitment”. The results should show approx 7943 results. On that screen you’ll see some criteria on the right hand side. Click on “location” and select “located in or near” and then change the country to “UK”. Do not change anything else. When you hit “search” it should result in around 2897 companies.

Part 2 – Selecting current employees in each company.

Click on any company and scroll down to see “current employees”. When you see this. Look for the link that says “see more” in relation to the current employees. Click it.
Down the right hand side of the screen you’ll see search criteria. Under the company name, there is a box for “current or past”. Make sure you click “current” and the search to come up with the results.
Now for that company you have all the people we want to copy.
In the “title” box on the right hand side, I’m looking to do three searches – “Director” “Manager” “MD” all separately to give me the senior people in each company.

Main Project

The aim of this project is to get every current senior employee in a spreadsheet for each of the 2897 companies. What should be listed is the following:
Company Name
Company website
Company phone number
Employee First Name
Employee Last Name
Employee Job Title
Employee Email address

Important Note

For the email addresses, there will be a standard email configuration for each company. Some may be “.co.uk” or “.com” but you’ll see from the company website listing on linked in what the ending looks like. In terms of the email address, it may be the case that at least one person has put their company email address on there. If they have, this is the email configuration for everyone else. If they haven’t you’ll need to find it on their website or wherever it may be.
