Yes, this is a known issue. "Find People" and "Find Company" features rely on third-party data providers that may not have current information, with data refreshed every 2-3 weeks. Workarounds: 1. Use real-time enrichment: Use "Enrich Person from Profile" instead, which pulls information in real-time and provides much more current job titles. 2. Clean job titles with AI: Add a column, select "Use AI", choose "Content creation, manipulation, and categorization", and create a prompt to clean messy titles (e.g., "Clean these job titles from extra information and simplify them"). 3. Use native cleaning tools: Access cleaning functions under "Tools" in the enrichment panel - these are credit-free and help standardize data. The AI cleaning approach is particularly effective for removing unnecessary information that makes titles look scraped.
