## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## Careerjet MCP Server

Give your AI assistant **live access to the global job market**. This is a
[Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) (MCP) server for
**[Careerjet](https://www.careerjet.com)** — a job-search aggregator indexing
millions of postings across **90+ countries** — so agents like **Claude, ChatGPT,
Cursor, and n8n** can search jobs, size demand, resolve locations, and suggest
keywords in real time.

It also runs as a **classic scraper**: start a normal run with the input schema
and it pushes normalized job rows to a dataset.

### Why AI teams use it

- **Recruiting copilots** — "Find remote data-engineer roles in Germany posted
  this week" answered live in chat.
- **Market-intel agents** — compare demand for a role across cities or countries
  with `count_jobs`.
- **Job-search assistants** — resolve a vague location, autocomplete keywords,
  then return matching openings.

### MCP tools

| Tool                    | What it does                                                  |
| ----------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `search_jobs`           | Search live jobs by keywords, location, country, and filters  |
| `count_jobs`            | Return the total number of matching jobs (market sizing)      |
| `resolve_location`      | Turn free-text into Careerjet's location tree with job counts |
| `autocomplete_keywords` | Suggest search keywords for a partial query                   |

Each job row includes title, company, salary, location, contract type, posting
date, and the full description.

### Connect it

1. Start the actor in **Standby mode** (it exposes an MCP endpoint).
2. Point your MCP client at `<ACTOR_STANDBY_URL>/mcp` (Streamable HTTP).
3. In Claude Desktop, Cursor, or your agent framework, add it as an MCP server —
   the four tools appear automatically.

#### Example tool call

```json
{
    "tool": "search_jobs",
    "arguments": {
        "keywords": "registered nurse",
        "location": "Texas",
        "country_code": "US",
        "sort": "date",
        "limit": 20
    }
}
````

### Classic scraper mode

Prefer a dataset? Run it normally with:

```json
{
    "keywords": "software developer",
    "location": "New York",
    "countryCode": "US",
    "maxItems": 100
}
```

Rows land in the dataset with the same fields, ready for JSON/CSV/Excel export or
Google Sheets, Make, and Zapier.

### Output fields

`job_id, title, company, company_logo_url, location, locations, salary,
contract_type, contract_period, is_new, posted_at, snippet, description_html,
description_text, url, country_code`.

### FAQ

**Which countries?** 90+ — pass `country_code` (US, GB, DE, FR, IN, AU, …).

**Do I need credentials?** No — Careerjet's job API is open. No proxy needed.

**How fresh is the data?** Pulled live at call time; use `sort: "date"` for the
newest postings.

**Is it reliable?** It calls Careerjet's own JSON API instead of scraping HTML, so
it doesn't break when the website changes.

**Can I still use it without MCP?** Yes — run it as a normal scraper via the input
schema.

# Actor input Schema

// Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token
// Replace the '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>' with your token
const client = new ApifyClient({
    token: '<YOUR_API_TOKEN>',
});

// Prepare Actor input
const input = {
    "keywords": "software developer",
    "location": "New York"

// Run the Actor and wait for it to finish
const run = await client.actor("axlymxp/careerjet-mcp-server").call(input);

// Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any)
console.log('Results from dataset');
console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
