Does this work for multiple roles at the same time? Yes. Role definitions are configurable, allowing parallel sourcing across different skill sets and seniority levels.
Can the evaluation logic be customized? Absolutely. Scoring criteria, weights, and AI prompts are fully adjustable through configuration files.
Is this limited only to LinkedIn? LinkedIn is the primary focus, but the architecture supports extension to other professional platforms.
How are English-speaking candidates identified? The system analyzes profile language, content patterns, and communication indicators during evaluation.
Execution Speed: Processes 200–300 profiles per hour per browser session under normal conditions.
Success Rate: Maintains 93–94% successful profile extraction across production runs with retries.
Scalability: Supports 50–200 concurrent sourcing sessions using containerized workers.
Resource Efficiency: A single worker averages 300–500 MB RAM with moderate CPU usage.
Error Handling: Implements automatic retries, exponential backoff, structured logging, and session recovery workflows.
