Direct Career Portal Monitoring

No Third-Party Lag

Most job boards rely on XML feeds that sync every few days. We monitor the HTML source of company sites directly for near real-time detection.

Signal Verification

Not every new listing is a hiring signal. We analyze patterns to identify growth-driven roles and leadership changes.

Market Visibility Intelligence

We cross-reference every detection against major platforms to confirm if you're early or if the role is already public.

Contact Enrichment

We automatically map detected departments to existing decision-maker profiles, giving you a starting point for outreach.

From Signal to Opportunity

FirstReq bridges the gap between raw data and executable recruiting workflows.

1. Monitor

Our engine checks your target company list for any structural career page changes every 15 minutes.

2. Verify

We verify the hiring manager context and confirm the vacancy is genuine and not a duplicate feed.

3. Approach

Use the early window to reach out to the hiring team while they are in the active decision window.

Data Source Transparency

Verification Logic

Every signal in FirstReq is verified at the source. We do not aggregate from third-party APIs or LinkedIn. We pull directly from the Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) used by the target companies.

Contact Integrity

We only map contacts when there is a clear departmental match between the role detected and the decision-maker's current professional profile.
