Researching Names In Companies - Deep Research Required - not just scraping or skimming -- 2
Budget: $10 – $30 USD
I'm building out a list of key people in a particular set of companies - it's around 100 Hedge Fund companies in the US. I'm looking to get the name of their CEO, COO, CHRO and Head of Talent Acquisition. Half of the list was done already some time ago so half the names are already on there, but these may be out of date by now.
Please read this part carefully - this work has to be exact and it will take more than just a simple Google search. You have to do research to cross reference sources - LinkedIn, recent news, and so on. This is not a simple Zoom People search or LinkedIn Sales Navigator. This wont be work for a data scraper. This is work for a seasoned researcher who can take their time to cross reference different sources to get this right. I can't emphasize this enough - if you're someone that just wants to quickly scan sites and dump whatever info you can find in here, this isn't going to be for you. There's a potential full time job for someone who can do this correctly.
I have an hour long on exactly how I want this to be done. I appreciate you may be an experienced researcher, but I'd like this done in a particular way. You will have to watch the hour long video before you start. I'm not looking for someone who will watch ten minutes and go, "Yeah I know what I'm doing," and move on. There's a lot of detail throughout the video that has to be watched.
I will send over what I have to whoever I hire. There will be lots more similar work following this.
The instructions which may not make sense until you see the excel sheet will be as follows:
1. Fact check the existing entries (people). Google {company name} {person name} and check they're still there. Be careful, their name may pop up at that company from previous articles but that won't meant they're still there. Check LinkedIn's entry first. If they've moved, delete from list, and it's likely they'll have moved to one of the other's so check that too.
2. For the CHRO and Head of TA, these are typically two different people. CHRO (Chief Human Resources Officer) may be called Head of people, head of human capital, head of HR or other. It's not just going to be any old HR person. It will clearly state that they're the Head in one way or another. With TA (Talent Acquisition) people we are looking here for the main person, not just a standard TA person. So they may be called head of talent acquisition, for example.
3. The last piece of this puzzle is searching to identify all those titles for the remaining companies. The most reliable sites for the main roles are the company website or LinkedIn, but cross reference your sources. Someone may not have changed their LinkedIn, for example. Most of these people will appear in some news somewhere when they make a move so just double check if they're definitely there by cross referencing more than one source.
