Weekly Competitor Hiring Signal Digest
Scrapes target competitors' job boards every week, classifies new roles by function and seniority, and posts a Slack digest flagging where each rival is investing headcount.

What it does
Every Monday it pulls the latest job postings from a watchlist of competitor career pages, classifies each new role by function (eng, sales, product, GTM) and seniority, then posts a Slack digest summarizing where each rival is adding headcount versus the prior week.
When to use it
Run this when you track 5-20 named competitors and want a recurring, low-effort read on their strategy shifts. A spike in enterprise AE reqs signals an upmarket push; a cluster of ML infra roles signals a model investment. It replaces manually checking career pages.
How it works
- 1A weekly schedule fires the run.
- 2Apify scrapes each competitor's careers page and returns current open roles.
- 3An OpenAI step classifies every role by function, seniority, and location, and diffs against last week's snapshot stored in Airtable.
- 4A logic step keeps only newly opened or newly closed roles.
- 5The new snapshot is written back to Airtable for next week's diff.
- 6A formatted digest with per-competitor highlights posts to Slack.
