Do companies and candidates post these signals publicly?

Yes. Hiring frustration, 'recommend a recruiter', and 'open to work' posts are common in professional communities and on social.

Does IntentHunter reach out for me?

No. It finds and scores public conversations and links to the source. You decide whether and how to engage.

Can I run multiple desks?

Yes, as separate projects, each with its own roles, keywords, and inbox, within your plan's limits.

Why this matters

What's actually happening today

Job boards tell you who posted, not who's stuck

A company publicly venting about a hard-to-fill role is a warmer client than a cold job listing. Those frustration posts are where the urgency lives.

Cold outreach to hiring managers is saturated

Every recruiter is in the same inbox. A public 'we can't find this person' is an open invitation instead of an interruption.

Candidate pipelines dry up between searches

Watching for 'open to work' and 'thinking about leaving' signals keeps a bench warm so you're not starting from zero each search.

What you get

What IntentHunter does for you

Role and industry intent, scored

Track the roles and industries you place. Posts about hiring needs or job searches are scored against your desk so the strongest surface first.

Both sides of the market

Signals are classified by intent, separating employer needs from candidate availability, so you can work the side that fits the moment.

One inbox, source links included

Each signal links to the original thread so you can read the full context before reaching out. IntentHunter never posts for you.

A project per desk or specialty

Run separate projects for each specialty or region, each with its own keywords and inbox, within your plan's limits.
