USAJobs.gov Federal Jobs Scraper

Scrapes official US federal government job postings from USAJobs.gov, the government's own job board. Every posting includes title, agency, department, salary range and grade, location(s), work schedule/type, hiring-path eligibility (public/students/veterans/etc.), job category, and the open/close dates — straight from USAJobs' own search results, no login or paywall involved.

What you get

One row per job posting:

• Title, agency, sub-agency, department
• Location (including multi-location postings, with a location count)
• Salary range (display text and a parsed minimum) and GS grade range
• Work schedule (full-time/part-time) and work type (permanent/internship/temporary/etc.)
• Hiring paths (who's eligible: general public, students, veterans, etc.)
• Job category
• Posting open/close dates
• A direct link to the posting

Input

• States — restrict to specific US states/territories. Leave empty to cover every state (a real full-coverage run — postings open in multiple states are only counted once).
• Keyword — free-text job-title search (e.g. "nurse", "data scientist"). Leave empty for every open posting in scope.
• Results per page — how many postings to fetch per request (default 500).
• Max results — stop after this many postings. Defaults to 50 for a fast preview; set to empty for everything in the selected scope.
• Incremental mode — auto (recommended): the first run for a given state/keyword scope returns every posting; later runs return only new/changed postings and flag ones that closed since the last run. full always returns everything; incremental only new/changed.
• TLS impersonation target — browser fingerprint (default chrome). Change only if requests start failing.
• Proxy configuration — off by default; not needed.

Notes

• A posting listing "Multiple Locations" can legitimately appear under more than one state filter — this actor deduplicates by posting ID across states, so a full-coverage run never double-counts a posting.
• Incremental mode tracks a separate baseline per states/keyword combination, so switching your filters starts a fresh comparison rather than mixing scopes.
