Find Latest Jobs from Twitter You say it searches the latest jobs advertised on Twitter, but you also advertise job postings for $149. Why wouldn't someone just post their job on…

Filter by security job tags and hashtags

How the Twitter data pipeline works

Twitter's own job search or the REST and streaming APIs
From 2 comments
The streaming API sucks (even if it finds no results, it consumes GB on top of GB - and obviously doesn't find anything historical) and the REST api also sucks as it doesn't…
