Discrepancy Between LinkedIn Sales Navigator and Enrichment Headcount

·
·

Hey Clay ! Do you have any idea why I may be seeing discrepancy between what I see on LinkedIn Sales Navigator and the Enrichment "Headcount by Criteria" ? Here is an example : for the same job titles AND the same LinkedIn URL, Clay shows 8 headcounts whereas I can find 19 in Sales Navigator. I've double check and they're all "current experience"

    There are a few key reasons for this discrepancy: 1. Our data providers don't use your active LinkedIn session or cookies to scrape data live. This means they may not have access to all the information that's only visible when you're logged into LinkedIn. 2. Sales Navigator has viewing limitations of up to 2,500 leads or 100 pages, which affects what data our partners can access. 3. The data might also be affected by: • Privacy restrictions set by LinkedIn • Privacy settings of individual profiles • Limitations from our data providersFor more accurate real-time data, you could consider using tools like Phantombuster or Apify, though be aware these tools could put your LinkedIn account at risk since they use your cookies during the process.
