Here is a step-by-step guide to saving LinkedIn search results to Google Sheets:
- Step 1: Scrape LinkedIn search results - The Scraper is used to collect company information from the active LinkedIn search results tab. You can define the maximum number of companies to extract.
- Step 2: Merge company details - Bardeen merges the company URLs and about sections scraped from LinkedIn to prepare for the next step.
- Step 3: Scrape company about pages - In the background, additional company details are scraped from LinkedIn company about pages in an incognito window to ensure privacy.
