How reliable is Clay’s job opening signal?

Has anyone here had good results using Clay’s job opening/job signal?

I’ve tested it a few different ways. I tried a very controlled process with strict keywords, department-level filters, and tighter criteria. I also tried keeping the setup more loose to see if it would catch more useful results.

In both cases, the output has been pretty weak. A lot of the jobs it returns are outdated, already closed, or not active anymore. I’m also seeing totally irrelevant roles coming through, even after adjusting keywords and department settings.

For context, I’m trying to use job postings as a buying signal for outbound/GTM workflows, but so far I’m not getting enough signal quality to trust it.

Has anyone found a setup that actually works for this inside Clay?

Also open to trying other job data sources or signal providers that plug well into Clay. Curious what others are using for reliable hiring/job-posting signals.
