Finding Talents by Industry
In Talent Signals, you can filter by Industries (not Sub-Industries) to find people who fit the selected criteria. The Industry column in our taxonomy table breaks down each category you can filter by in this feed.
β
The Industry filter is relevant to someone's new position, rather than being focused on their prior roles and background. As such, keep in mind that for Out of Stealth and Live signals, it is quite easy to determine accurate industry classification of the individual, since they belong to a company that has been established and can be categorised.
For example, filtering for New Company signals using the DeepTech Industry filter surfaces several founders building DeepTech-related startups.
Exceptions for Stealth Founders
Stealth talents may not always disclose the nature of the business they working on. Filtering by Industry for those in Stealth could therefore preclude you from seeing compelling profiles simply because they haven't announced the industry they are building in.
Take the below New Company search for Stealth talents as an example; adding the DeepTech filter wouldn't have shown this individual, as he hasn't disclosed the industry his new startup is operating in. Based on his professional experience in DeepTech focused companies and positions like AI Product Advisor & Director of AI, he would be an ideal candidate to build a startup in the DeepTech space.
Get in touch with us if you would like to build any searches focused on specific pools for talent from certain companies, or perhaps even schools and accelerator programs as sources for founders likely to build in given industries.
