Workflow

Progress:
- [ ] Step 1: Search for role-specific tweets
- [ ] Step 2: Collect unique handles
- [ ] Step 3: Enrich profiles
- [ ] Step 4: Score candidate fit
- [ ] Step 5: Deliver candidate list

Step 1: Search Queries

Recommended — run_actor.js (handles waiting, output, and file saving automatically):

bash

# Quick answer (prints table to chat)
node scripts/run_actor.js \
  --actor "apidojo~twitter-user-scraper" \
  --input '{"param": "value"}'

# Save as CSV
node scripts/run_actor.js \
  --actor "apidojo~twitter-user-scraper" \
  --input '{"param": "value"}' \
  --output YYYY-MM-DD_results.csv --format csv

# Save as JSON
node scripts/run_actor.js \
  --actor "apidojo~twitter-user-scraper" \
  --input '{"param": "value"}' \
  --output YYYY-MM-DD_results.json --format json

APIFY_TOKEN
must be set in environment or
.env
file.

If Apify MCP is available:

Tool: apify:run-actor
Actor: "apidojo~tweet-scraper"
Input:
{
  "searchTerms": ["growth marketer", "VP Marketing", "marketing open to work", "content marketing jobs"],
  "maxItems": 300,
  "tweetLanguage": "en"
}

REST API fallback:

bash

curl -X POST \
  "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/apidojo~tweet-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchTerms": ["growth marketer", "VP Marketing", "marketing open to work", "content marketing jobs"], "maxItems": 300}'

Collect unique

author.username

from results.

Step 2: Enrich Profiles

If Apify MCP is available:

Tool: apify:run-actor
Actor: "apidojo~twitter-user-scraper"
Input: {"usernames": ["[username1]", "[username2]", "..."]}

REST API fallback:

bash

curl -X POST \
  "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/apidojo~twitter-user-scraper/runs?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"usernames": ["handle1", "handle2"]}'

Step 3: Filter and Score

Skill confirmation: bio contains keywords: "growth", "marketing", "CMO", "demand gen", "content", "SEO", "paid media", "lifecycle", "GTM"

thought_leader_signal = followerCount > 1000 AND tweets in last 30 days about marketing topics

Candidate score:

candidate_score = (skill_confirmed ? 1 : 0) * 0.35
                + (open_to_work_signal ? 1 : 0) * 0.30
                + (followerCount in 200..20000 ? 1 : 0.6) * 0.20
                + (tweeted_in_last_30_days ? 1 : 0) * 0.15

Activity: active (< 30 days) | passive (30–90 days) | dormant (> 90 days)

Step 4: Edge Cases

Company/brand accounts in results: Filter where
```
followerCount > 50K
```
AND bio contains no personal pronouns; these are likely brand accounts
< 20 candidates found: Broaden skill term; remove location or seniority filter; try adjacent skills

Bot detection: Flag

followerCount / followingCount < 0.05

AND

tweetsCount < 20

as potential bot

Location not matching: Bio location is free text — use fuzzy match; accept partial city/country names

Output Format

# Marketing Professionals And Growth Specialists Candidates: [MARKETING_SPECIALTY]
Profiles found: [N] | Open-to-work: [N] | Active: [N] | Date: [DATE]

## Priority: Open-to-Work Candidates
| Name | @Handle | Specialty | Location | Followers | Last Active | Score |
|------|---------|----------|---------|-----------|------------|-------|

## Passive Candidates
| Name | @Handle | Specialty | Location | Followers | Score |
|------|---------|----------|---------|-----------|-------|

## Bio Highlights (Top 5)
1. @[handle]: "[bio excerpt]"

Troubleshooting

All results are agencies/companies not individuals: Add personal pronouns filter or search

"I am a [role]"

,

"I do [skill]"

. Role too generic returns too many results: Add location OR seniority qualifier. No open-to-work signals: Most candidates don't signal publicly — treat passive candidates as warm leads with personalized outreach referencing their recent content.
