There are many different reasons why a job changes might be missed - here are a few of these reasons (in total, there are probably 50+):
- The profile is private
- The job is hidden on the external profile
- The profile doesn't meet our quality criteria (too few connections, jobs are missing information, ...)
- The profile does look outdated (long periods of time without update, only old jobs, non of the newer fields are filled out, ...)
- The person has 2 profiles
- There are 2 people with the same name and our algorithm cannot determine which one is the right one
- The new job is self-employed
- The new job started a long time before the old job ended
- The old job started too late (before 2016)
- The new job started too late (before 2018)
- The new job title is an advisor role (or board member, or part time, ...)
- There is not enough information about the new job to determine if it's high quality
- The profile was updated after we checked (which means, we'd show the job change next month)
- The name differs slightly from the provided name
- We are not able to confirm the provided company name with the linkedin profile (because there is a typo, because it's a subsidiary name that we didnt know about, there was an acquisition, ...)
- The job change is filtered out by your ICP definition
- The job change is filtered out by your persona definition
- ...
It is also important to note that our system will always rather provide a false negative (= we do not send a job change that happened) than sending a false positive (= we send a job change that didn't happen). So if our system is in doubt, it does not provide the job change - and this was exactly the case for the profile you inquired about. In this case, did find the right profile and we did identify that she had a job change - however, our system was not able to determine if it's what we call a "high quality job change". A "high quality job change" is a job change that fulfills all our quality criteria and we therefore pass it on to your sales team by creating a job change. What prevented this job change from being sent is that our system was not able to verify that her newest company ("T-Mobile USA") is a real company, since it was not linked to the LinkedIn company page. In such a case, we then try to verified was other methods, but in this case our system wasn't able to and it therefore opted for not sending the job change.
