Are there ways to attract specific type of tenant?

I am under contract for a SFH with an in-law suite in NE Ohio. The property is situated very close to the highway, so it's a great spot for anyone commuting to the Pittsburgh area. My PM is obsessed with the idea of attracting a commuting professional. Outside of furnishing the rental, are there ways to attract particular types of tenants or tenants with specific jobs? They're not like students or nurses; they don't all congregate in the same place on a regular basis. We can't put "Seeking commuting professional" in our ads. Besides violating fair housing laws, it's just weird. Any thoughts to share? TIA!

    @Nicole Heasley BeitenmanI had the HR department of a large hospital post my ad on an internal bulletin board-got 2 units filled; a doctor and a nurse. You could do the same with a large employer nearby? All the best!
