    It can be tricky to login accounts and do scraping with linkedin.

    I don't have the bandwidth to partner up, but I thought it was pretty easy to scrape LinkedIn using Python + Selenium. Perhaps find someone with that skillset?

      That's exactly what I'm going to do - creating a bot with Python

    I have done LinkedIn scraping in the past and as far as I know, only https://proxycrawl.com supports crawling LinkedIn at the moment and it is not even enabled by default on regular accounts, you have to contact them to enable it for you.
    LinkedIn scraping is not an easy task, so good luck with it ;)
