SignalHire

🎯 Should you use SignalHire?

Buy if: You source 50+ candidates monthly and need phone numbers, not just emails, on a budget tighter than ContactOut or hireEZ.

Skip if: You only need email verification or work solo gigs where $99/month tools cost more than your weekly margin.

⚡ In practice

• ●Setup: 10 minutes to install extension, sync ATS
• ●LinkedIn scraping: Grabs email + mobile in 3 seconds per profile
• ●Bulk enrichment: Upload CSVs, returns contacts for 60-70% of records
• ●ATS push: One-click export to Bullhorn or Greenhouse

⚠️ Where it breaks

• ●Phone numbers for candidates who switched jobs 18+ months ago land in voicemail hell or wrong people.
• ●Free plan caps you at 5 contacts monthly, so you hit the paywall by day two of real sourcing.

💸 Is it worth the money?

No published pricing means you email sales for a quote, which typically lands between $79-$150 monthly depending on seat count. Cheaper than hireEZ's $129 floor, but ContactOut's $49 starter plan beats it if you only need emails.

🆚 If not this

• ●ContactOut -> Cheaper for email-only workflows, better accuracy on US tech talent
• ●hireEZ -> Pick this when your budget allows and you need deeper AI matching beyond raw contact scraping
• ●Lusha -> Use for sales-first teams who also recruit, shared credit pool

🎯 Final verdict

Solid middle option when you need verified phones and your ATS integration list matches theirs, but stale data on older profiles costs you more time than the tool saves.
