Brainfood Live On Air - Ep268 - How to Build a Job Scraper (as a non-coder!)

2024-08-16

HOW TO BUILD A JOB SCRAPER USING PYTHON (AS A NON-CODER!) Friends, you don't need me to tell you that the job market for Talent Acquisition professionals has been in the toilet for the past 18 months. So much so that I have even had to close down the Brainfood Jobs Job Board - for lack of posted jobs! When the competition out there is as fierce as it is, you have to think about how to give yourself an edge. How about creating a lead generation tool which automatically scrapes new TA jobs as soon as they're published? That's what Aaron Lintz did, to support his own job search. He's also now showing everyone else how he did it, so he can support YOUR job search.

HOW TO BUILD A JOB SCRAPER USING PYTHON (AS A NON-CODER!)

Friends, you don't need me to tell you that the job market for Talent Acquisition professionals has been in the toilet for the past 18 months. So much so that I have even had to close down the Brainfood Jobs Job Board - for lack of posted jobs! When the competition out there is as fierce as it is, you have to think about how to give yourself an edge. How about creating a lead generation tool which automatically scrapes new TA jobs as soon as they're published?

That's what Aaron Lintz did, to support his own job search. He's also now showing everyone else how he did it, so he can support YOUR job search.

You will learn the step-by-step of who Aaron did this task. Not only is the output super useful but also a lesson for all of us that it is possible to super scale up your effort if we dove just a little deeper on the tech that is available to us. And finally, what a demonstration this is to future employers?

Aaron Lintz, Senior Sources (Black & Veatch) will lead, and I will be joined by Alla Pavlova, Recruiter (Riot Games), Erin Mathew (Recruiter) and friends. We're on Friday 16th August, 2pm BST /3pm CEST / 9am ET
