Indeed Job Scraper

Turn Indeed search results into clean, structured JSON. Search by job title and location, pick your country, filter to only recently posted roles, and optionally pull the full job description for every result.

Built for recruiters, job boards, labour market researchers, and anyone building automated job search tooling.

What it does

• Searches Indeed for a job title in a location, on the correct country domain.
• Filters to jobs posted within the last N days, so scheduled runs return only what is new.
• Optionally opens each listing to capture the full description.
• Runs through Apify residential proxies with a real browser, so results are complete and geo accurate.
• Outputs one clean record per job, ready to export as JSON, CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets.

Input

Field	Type	Description
position	string	Job title or search query, for example Program Director, python developer.
location	string	Where to search, for example United States, Atlanta, GA, London.
country	string	Which Indeed domain to use (US, UK, CA, and others). Controls the regional index.
maxItems	integer	Stop after this many jobs. Keeps runs predictable and cheap.
freshnessDays	integer	Only return jobs posted within this many days.
fetchDetails	boolean	Also open each job page for the full description. Slower, richer.

Example input

{
    "position": "python developer",
    "location": "United States",
    "country": "US",
    "maxItems": 50,
    "freshnessDays": 7,
    "fetchDetails": true
}

Output

Each dataset item is one job:

{
    "positionName": "Senior Program Director",
    "company": "Example Nonprofit",
    "location": "Atlanta, GA (Remote)",
    "salary": "$120,000 - $140,000 a year",
    "postedAt": "3 days ago",
    "url": "https://www.indeed.com/viewjob?jk=abc123",
    "description": "Full posting text...",
    "scrapedAt": "2026-06-09T18:00:00+00:00"
}

Export from the Apify console as JSON, CSV, Excel, or Google Sheets, or pull it via the API.

Typical uses

• Power a niche job board for one role, city, or industry.
• Run a daily job alert or digest product.
• Track hiring demand and salary ranges across a market over time.
• Supply listings to an AI matcher or resume tailoring pipeline.

Pairs naturally with the LinkedIn Job Matcher Actor, which scores listings against a candidate CV and drafts a tailored cover note.

Honest limitations

• Indeed does not publish a salary on every listing. The salary field is populated only when Indeed shows one.
• postedAt is returned as Indeed displays it, for example 3 days ago, since that is what the listing exposes.
• Indeed rate limits automated traffic. Large jobs are better split across scheduled runs than forced into one giant run.
• Indeed changes its markup periodically. If a field stops populating, open an issue and it gets fixed.

Notes on responsible use

This Actor reads publicly accessible job postings, the same pages any visitor can open. It does not log in, does not collect personal profiles, and does not submit applications. Requests are throttled. Please respect Indeed's terms and your local laws when using the output.
