Scope
The earliest captured message is dated 18 June 2026 and the latest is dated 31 July 2026: 44 calendar days, or six weeks and two days when counted inclusively. The four source files were exported on 31 July 2026. This publication therefore represents only the activity present in those exports through 31 July; subsequent outreach and replies are not included.
Every eligible replied conversation in the supplied exports is associated with its student and published as an anonymized lead record. Each lead record opens to the complete conversation captured in the source file.
Students changed audiences and objectives during the observation window. Some pursued consulting projects, some explored contractual or full-time roles, and others used outreach primarily to build their professional network. Campaign names and targeting details are intentionally not published. The figures should therefore be read as a record of varied student outreach—not as one standardized campaign or controlled experiment.
Measures
- Connections sent is taken from the latest deduplicated campaign snapshot for each student and campaign.
- Connections accepted uses the corresponding deduplicated accepted-connection snapshot. The cohort acceptance rate is accepted divided by sent.
- Unique replies counts each replied conversation thread once, regardless of whether its lead sent one message or several. It is not presented as a count of unique people because the same profile can occur in more than one source record.
- Qualified opportunity appears only inside an individual record when the lead indicates plausible need or interest and requests or agrees to a concrete next step. It is not used in the public leaderboard.
Privacy and interpretation
Amazon Nova is used to remove personal, organizational, and contact information; preserve the exchange; produce a short factual summary; and assess qualification under the rule above. Public records use anonymous lead identifiers unrelated to source IDs.
Classification is interpretive evidence, not a guarantee of commercial outcome. Outreach results also depend heavily on targeting, proposition, sender profile, and execution.
Coverage limitation
The export does not necessarily contain later LinkedIn activity. A conversation ending with a lead message therefore means only that the last captured message came from the lead—not that the student failed to follow up.
