LinkedIn Integration: No Results for Contact Search with Specific Keywords at Company - Am I Doing Something Wrong?

I used LinkedIn integration to search for contacts at Company with specific keywords. However, it’s not returning any results, even though I can find matching contacts on LinkedIn. Anything I’m doing wrong?

    For some context, row 3 “Arjas” is a good example. The column name for the LinkedIn integration is “Find Contacts at Company 2"

    I believe this is likely because our LinkedIn integrations don't use your active session or cookies to find data on LinkedIn. The tradeoff is that it could miss some information here and there, especially if there are privacy restrictions in their profiles, meaning that you need to be logged into an account to see all the data, that could be a limitation set by LinkedIn or the person themselves.We're continuously working on these tools to improve coverage though!

    I checked that row's CEO and it did return as a restricted profile, if you try to open it without logging in, no information is visible from their experience or education.
