name:hiring-signal-outreach description:Use this skill when a target company is hiring for roles your product supports or replaces: "they are hiring SDRs", "use job postings as a buying signal", "write outreach based on their job listing".…

Use this when a job listing at a target account touches the problem you solve. A company paying to hire for a problem has budget and urgency; the listing tells you what they think the problem is in their own words.

Inputs

  • The job listing text.
  • Account fit and tier.
  • Your offer and the roles it supports.

The play

1. Read the listing like a brief

Extract: the team the role joins and its size, what the person will own, the tools named, metrics they will be measured on, the phrases that reveal pain ("build from scratch", "clean up", "scale from 10 to 50"), and seniority.

2. Decide what the hire means

Listing typeMeaningWorth acting?
First hire in a functionBuilding the process from zeroYes: strong
Several roles in one team at onceScaling fast, process strainYes: strong
Leader for an existing teamChange is comingYes: time it to their start
Single backfillReplacing someoneWeak, unless the listing reveals new scope
Role your product partly automatesBudget exists; handle with careYes, with a support angle

3. Pick the contact

The hiring manager (the role’s future boss) is almost always right. Not HR, not recruiting, and never the new hire before they start.

4. Write the angle: help, not replace

Frame the product as what makes the new team productive faster, or what covers the gap until the hire lands. "You don’t need to hire" insults the plan they already approved.

5. Time it

Within 7 days of the listing appearing, while the problem is top of mind. A second touch when the role closes ("as your new team starts…").

Message pattern

Subject: the new SDR team

Hi Dana, saw Lumen is hiring four SDRs and the listing mentions building outbound "from the ground up". The part that usually slows new teams most is not the calling, it is getting a clean, researched list in front of each rep every morning.

We help teams like Northwind’s get new reps booking in their second week. Worth a look before they start?

What good looks like

  • The opener quotes or closely paraphrases the listing, proving it was read.
  • The angle supports the hiring plan.
  • Listings are scored, and backfills are mostly ignored.
  • The common mistake is "I noticed you’re hiring" followed by a generic pitch, which every vendor in the category sends the same week.

Rules

  • MUST contact the hiring manager, not recruiting or the candidate.
  • MUST act within the listing’s lifetime.
  • NEVER suggest the company should not make the hire.
  • NEVER contact candidates or new hires to sell to their future employer.

Example prompts

  • "Here’s a job listing for a RevOps manager at Contoso. Is it a signal for us, and what should we send?"
  • "Write outreach for these 20 accounts hiring SDRs this month."
  • "Score these job listings and tell me which to act on."

How do I install Hiring signal outreach in Claude Code?

Run /plugin marketplace add prosyo-ai/gtm-skill and then /plugin install gtm-skills@prosyo to add the whole library, or run npx skills add prosyo-ai/gtm-skill –skill hiring-signal-outreach for this skill alone. In Claude.ai, download the .zip from this page and upload it under Settings, Capabilities, Skills.

What do I need to give the agent?

Have these ready: job listing text or link, account fit, your offer. If something is missing, the skill tells the agent to ask for it rather than guess.

Does it work with ChatGPT, Codex, Cursor or Gemini?

Yes. The skill is a plain SKILL.md file with no vendor lock-in. Agents that load skills natively (Claude Code, Claude.ai, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI and others) pick it up automatically; anywhere else, paste the file into the conversation as instructions.

Will it send emails or messages on its own?

No. Every skill in the library drafts, researches and analyses, and waits for a person to approve anything that sends, schedules or changes records in bulk. Your inbox, CRM and accounts stay under your control.

Is it free, and can I change it?

Yes. It is free and MIT-licensed. Copy it, adapt it to your market and voice, and if you improve it, open a pull request so everyone gets the better version.
