How to Use

1. Collect job URLs — Browse S1jobs.com and copy direct links to job detail pages (not search pages)
2. Prepare input — Paste URLs into the urls array, one per line or via bulk edit
3. Configure options — Set ignore_url_failures to true for robustness in batch runs
4. Execute scraper — Start the run and monitor progress
5. Download results — Export data as JSON, CSV, or Excel for analysis

Pro tips:

• For high-volume scraping, use bulk URL import to avoid manual entry
• Enable ignore_url_failures to prevent a single bad link from halting the entire run
• Filter closed or expired jobs post-scrape using the Status field
• Use Salary Low and Salary High for standardized compensation analysis

Common troubleshooting:

• Verify URLs point to job detail pages, not search results or company profiles
• Check that URLs are publicly accessible (some jobs may require login)
• For rate limiting, distribute scrapes across multiple smaller runs rather than one massive batch
