Searching for Leads by Graduation Year: Tips and Creative Approaches

Aryan J. · 2024-12-02T20:07:34.001Z

Hi! Is there a way to search for leads based on a specific graduation year, or perhaps a creative approach to find them if not directly? For context, I am trying to find individuals who have just graduated or are currently in enrolled in a bachelors program from a set of target universities.

Hey! While we can't search directly by graduation year right now, here's a workaround: 1. Search People by school 2. Enrich the profiles 3. Use a Formula to: - Calculate years since graduation - Filter for your target graduation dates The formula could look like: How long ago from today was /graduation date Let me know if you want help setting up those formulas! 🎓

If enrich the profiles then use the formula to filter, wouldn’t I be wasting a lot of credits? Any work around to this?

That's actually the only way to get their experience. You could also use Claygent with their API Key or use your session cookies with Apify/Phantombuster to scrape this to save Credits!

It seems that when you enrich, it takes the latest graduation year from the profile. For example, the lead could be graduating from their masters in 2024, while they may have received their bachelors years before. Is there a way to only see the graduation year for receiving a bachelors?

That could be done filtering with the formula yes. Happy to check in your table ! Do you mind sending the link to the table so we can take a look? https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/1171717996/ac7729f84b426e1d0358af02/image.png?expires=1733175900&signature=a0b1e378f0c3a595b64d16b6f90959cf3c1ade63ca20ee2986a840aedf07a799&req=dSEgF85%2FmohWX%2FMW1HO4zYTywSj9AZIf2BKsam%2FhVPu3Sw%3D%3D%0A

Thank you! Just for clarification, I wanted to actually search for the bachelor end date and filter from there.

Got it - So you would need to simply update the prompt accordingly! Let me know if you have any issues :)
