I'm looking to set up triggers that whenever a new job (according to the job titles we provide), will be posted on the web (Linkedin, Indeec etc), in our given region, i want it to be enriched in the clay table. is it possible?

Not possbile within clay directly.

you have to setup workflows that will keep feeding data to your tables

What about webhooks?

Yes, you can keep feeding data to your tables via webhooks

Hi Irtaza, thanks for reaching out. As for the first signal you want to track, we have a job changes feature which will allow you to track people lists for job searches. Here's a demo on how to use the job changes feature. A brief note on the setup: * If you only provide a Person LinkedIn Url column, we will track that list of people for any future job changes from the moment you create the Signal * IF you provide a Company LinkedIn Url (optional) column, we will do an initial historical check against the companies you provided. So e.g. if you say that Person X was at Company A, we will do a historical check to see if they're still in Company A, and if not, we will produce a Job Change event, regardless of when they started their current job. The use case for this is if you want to check if their current data (e.g. from their CRM) is still up to date. As for your second question on job post triggers, - you cannot set this up directly in clay at the moment. However tools like Phantombuster & Apify.com have scrapers that can pull job post data and the results can be imported through our integration with them. ​ I found this actor, for example, which should get the job done for your specific use case. Apify integrates with Clay, so you'll be able to build tables based on Apify actor runs, or trigger actor runs at strategic points in your workflow. Here's how you can set up a Clay table from an Apify actor run: https://downloads.intercomcdn.com/i/o/1136960340/97e4e0aa1500879dbbe57ea0/CleanShot+2024-08-06+at+15_48_57.gif?expires=1728657000&signature=3888fad65eda8b842d3b81dae941415ff74f3ced7084c3078a38dcb7c13c5357&req=dSEkEMB4nYJbWfMW1HO4zejWagDb73AHAut9xPamiwBH4w%3D%3D%0A I hope this was helpful.
