Individual skill
hiring-signal-prospecting
Use this skill when job postings should become outreach: which open roles mean a company is about to buy what you sell, how to read a job description for the budget, the pain and the boss, who to contact at the hiring company (never the recruiter), and how to open on the hire rather than on the product. Produces one buyer per hiring company with a quoted pain line from the posting. Fires on "companies hiring for X", "job posts as a signal", "hiring signals", "open roles", "headcount growth", "job-based intent", or "prospect companies that are recruiting".

Read excerpt
Applies when a role being hired proves the problem you solve exists at that company
this quarter. Produces a short list of buyers inside hiring companies, each with the
posting's own pain sentence as the opener.
A job posting is a budget line someone already approved, with the pain written in the
job description. It is the one intent signal that names the problem, the timing and the
owner in the same document. The trap is contacting the person being hired for, or the
recruiter hiring them, instead of the buyer who signed the budget.
## The play
1. **Pick the roles that mean "about to buy".** The role searched for is the one whose
existence proves the problem; it is rarely the buyer. A first SDR means the founder is
starting outbound with no tooling, so the buyer is the founder or the Head of Sales.
