Dice Jobs Scraper (US Tech)
Scrapes job listings from dice.com, the leading US tech-recruiting board, over plain HTTP — no browser, no login, no cookies.
What makes this different
Salary parsed into numbers. Dice publishes salary as a display string on roughly half of listings ("USD 229,900.00 - 262,400.00 per year"), which this Actor splits into numeric min/max, currency and period — the rest carry a placeholder sentence instead of a figure, which is not a parsing failure.
Employer type. employer_type distinguishes a direct employer from a staffing/recruiting firm — useful for filtering out agency reposts.
Easy Apply flag. easy_apply marks listings supporting Dice's one-click apply flow.
One schema across boards. Same record shape as the SEEK, JobStreet, Himalayas, RemoteOK, ZipRecruiter, Bayt, InfoJobs and Xing Actors in this suite, with a source-prefixed job_id.
How it gets through
There is no public JSON search endpoint — job-search-api.svc.dhigroupinc.com returns 403 with a stale public web key found in Dice's own JS bundle. This Actor does not use that API at all. Instead it reads the website's own results page, decoding the Next.js React Server Component payload where the full job records live — the same technique this suite's ZipRecruiter Actor uses. The website itself was not blocked under any TLS fingerprint tested.
Input
| Field | Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|
keyword | string | A job title or skill, e.g. python, devops. |
location | string | City, state, or "Remote". Optional. |
maxItems | integer | Per query. Pages automatically (~30/page) until this limit or the reachable depth. |
incremental | boolean | Only listings not seen in previous runs. |
proxyConfiguration | object | Datacenter is enough — no IP-reputation gate observed on the website. |
Known limits
- Salary present on roughly half of listings. A null
salary.minusually means Dice's own placeholder text was there instead of a figure — checksalary.raw. - Layout coupling. Because the data comes from an RSC payload rather than a documented API, a front-end rewrite can break extraction. The client fails loudly with a specific message rather than silently returning zero rows.
Local development
pip install -r requirements.txtpython test_local.py python --max 20 --out sample_output.jsonpython test_local.py "data engineer" --location "Austin, TX" --max 10
sample_output.json in this folder is real output from a live run, kept so the schema can be reviewed without running anything.
