Title: Script to Search for LinkedIn Profiles
Post by: dumbdragon on May 30, 2016, 09:29:16 PM
Hi all,

Is it possible to take a couple of fields from an excel file (for example name and location) and come up with the URL of that persons LinkedIn profile?

One possible workaround might be a script which performs a google search and then returns the first linkedin URL according to the google search.

Anyone got any relevant experience that might be able to help me?

Thanks

Sure it's possible.

Name: Frank
Location: London

Here is a search phrase of linkedin
https://www.linkedin.com/vsearch/f?type=all&keywords=Frank+London&orig=GLHD&rsid=&pageKey=oz-winner&trkInfo=tarId%3A1464644662759&search=search

Here it is with a google search;
https://www.google.com/search?num=100&espv=2&q=site%3Alinkedin.com+Frank+London&oq=site%3Alinkedin.com+Frank+Germany&gs_l=serp.3...2431.3150.0.3375.7.7.0.0.0.0.279.597.0j1j2.3.0....0...1c.1.64.serp..4.0.0.FHwhRthenTA

This data can be parsed into an excel sheet which all result per keywords

If you need more help sent me an PM with an example of the location
