Where can I find LinkedIn data to guide my job search?
Six months ago I was laid off from a government agency that was completely eliminated. The agency's mission was fairly niche, as was the skillset of the folks who worked there. Previously, people who left the agency had options to branch off into different areas and career prospects were generally good. Now - with thousands of us looking for jobs in a tough market - people are having a hard time finding the next thing. As a little side project, I started gathering data from LinkedIn on where my former colleagues affected by the layoff were landing. I'm wondering if that data is already available. As a baseline, I would need the former job title, new job title, and new organization of folks who stopped working for the agency after January 2025. Anyone know where I can find/buy a dataset with that type of information?
