🔥 Glassdoor jobs scraper

🚀 New in v3 — a complete rebuild

The biggest update yet. Rebuilt from scratch to be faster, more complete, and more reliable than any previous version.

• ⚡ Faster — a lean HTTP engine reads Glassdoor's own data endpoint directly. No slow browser, no page rendering.
• 🎚️ 13 working filters — industry (25 sectors), job function (18 roles), company size, salary range, seniority, remote, Easy Apply, company rating, posting date, radius, and more. Filters that silently did nothing in the old scraper now actually filter.
• 💰 Salary data, fixed — real annual/hourly salary ranges (min · median · max), corrected from the old scraper's inverted, mislabeled numbers.
• 🏢 Full company profiles — ratings, size, revenue, industry, HQ and 8 detailed sub-ratings, on demand.
• 🤖 AI-agent ready — clean structured JSON, callable via MCP from Claude Code, Codex, OpenClaw and any agent.
• 🔁 100% backward compatible — every field the previous Glassdoor scraper produced is still here, so existing setups keep working with zero changes.

Glassdoor Jobs & Salaries Scraper extracts job listings, company ratings and salary ranges from Glassdoor — no official Glassdoor API required. Search by keyword, company, or pasted search URL, apply the same filters you'd use on the site, and export clean, structured data to JSON, CSV, Excel or the Apify API.

It's a no-code Glassdoor API alternative: type what you're looking for, click Start, and get a tidy dataset of jobs with the salary and company-rating context Glassdoor is known for.

🧭 What does the Glassdoor scraper do?

This Glassdoor scraper collects public job data at scale and returns it as a structured dataset. In one run you can:

• 🔎 Search jobs by keyword and location — e.g. "software engineer" in New York.
• 🏢 Track one company's openings — every job a specific employer is currently posting.
• 🔗 Reuse a Glassdoor search URL — build the search on Glassdoor, paste the result-page URL, and we read the filters straight from it.
• 🆔 Refresh known jobs — pass a list of job IDs or job URLs to re-scrape listings you already track.
• 🌍 Scrape 20 country sites — glassdoor.com, .co.uk, .ca, .fr, .de, .com.au, .co.in and more.

By default, every job comes back fully enriched — the full job description, the apply link, the complete company profile, plus the salary range and the company's overall star rating. Only need the essentials? Turn Fetch full details off for a much faster, cheaper run that still includes salary, rating and location.

⭐ Why use this Glassdoor scraper?

Glassdoor has no public API for job data. This actor is the easiest way to get Glassdoor data without writing scraping code, rotating proxies, or fighting anti-bot challenges yourself.

• 🧲 Lead generation — build lists of companies actively hiring in a sector or region.
• 📈 Labor-market research — measure demand for skills and roles over time.

Powered by the Apify platform, the scraper also gives you: 🔄 automatic residential proxy rotation, ⏰ scheduling for daily/weekly runs, 🔌 API access and webhooks, 📤 integrations (Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, Airbyte, Slack…), and 📦 export to JSON, CSV, Excel and XML.

🛠️ How to scrape Glassdoor jobs (step by step)

1. Click Try for free at the top of this page (or open the actor in Apify Console).
2. Choose how to search — fill in a keyword + location, a company name, paste Glassdoor search URLs, or drop in a list of job IDs. You can combine several.
3. (Optional) Add filters — job type, seniority, salary range, company rating, industry, job function, remote-only, and more.

That's it. No proxies to configure, no anti-bot puzzles to solve — the actor handles all of it.

Lite output (turn details off — fastest & cheapest)

}

Both examples are trimmed for readability — the legacy contract adds ~30 more job_* / company_* fields at the root of every row. Some employers have no Glassdoor profile; those company fields simply come back empty, which is valid data, not an error.

🤖 Use the Glassdoor scraper with AI agents (MCP)

This actor is a first-class tool for AI agents and LLM pipelines, not just humans:

• 🔌 Callable via MCP — through the Apify MCP server, any Model Context Protocol client can discover and run this scraper as a tool: Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, OpenClaw, Cursor, Claude Desktop, and any custom agent.
• 🧠 LLM-ready output — clean, consistent, strongly-typed JSON (no raw HTML dumps, no surprise fields) that drops straight into RAG, embeddings, or an agent's context window.
• 🕹️ One-call API — trigger a run and collect a structured dataset with a single API request; simple JSON in, clean data out. Ideal for autonomous agents that need live Glassdoor data on demand.
• 🧩 Composable — chain it with other Apify actors or your own tools to build recruiting copilots, salary-benchmark bots, or market-intel workflows.

Give your coding agent the power to answer "what does a senior data engineer earn in Berlin, and which companies are hiring?" — with real, current Glassdoor data.

📌 Limits & good to know

• 2,000 results per search. Glassdoor caps any single search at 2,000 results. The actor reads the true total up front and tells you in the log if your search is larger — it never silently truncates. To get past the cap, split your search with filters (e.g. by industry, location, or salary band).
• Salary is often estimated. Many listings don't publish a salary, so Glassdoor shows an estimate (flagged with estimated: true). Turn Include jobs without salary off to keep only jobs that publish real pay data.
• ~40% of jobs have no company profile. That's normal — not every listing is linked to a rated employer. Those rows still succeed; the company fields are just empty.
• Residential proxies are required and preset for you. Leave the proxy setting at its default.

🔁 Migrating from the previous Glassdoor scraper?

Nothing to do. This is a drop-in replacement for the older glassdoor-jobs-scraper:

• Every legacy field (job_id, job_title, job_salary, company_name, company_size, …) is still emitted at the root of every row.
• Old inputs are auto-detected and mapped, and full details are fetched automatically to match the old behavior.
• One deliberate improvement: job_salary is now correct. The old scraper shipped inverted min/max, a hardcoded "hourly" period, and hourly figures for annual jobs. Those are fixed.

❓ FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Glassdoor?

Web scraping public data is legal in many jurisdictions. This scraper only collects publicly available job and company information — it does not extract private user data. You are responsible for how you use the data, and results may contain personal data (e.g. a job poster's name) protected by GDPR and similar laws. If in doubt, consult a lawyer. See Apify's guide on the legality of web scraping.

Does Glassdoor have an official API?

No public job/salary API is available. This actor is a reliable Glassdoor API alternative that returns the same public data in a clean, structured form.

Can I get salaries and company ratings without full details?

Yes. Salary range, company overall rating and location come in every mode, including the fast lite mode — just turn Fetch full details off. Keep details on (the default) when you also want the description, apply link, and the full company dossier.

Can I schedule Glassdoor scraping to run automatically?

Yes. Use Apify Scheduler to run the scraper daily or weekly, and connect webhooks or integrations (Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, Slack…) to push fresh data wherever you need it.

Which Glassdoor country sites are supported?

20 country sites, including the US (glassdoor.com), UK, Canada, Ireland, France, Germany, Spain, Italy, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Switzerland, Australia, New Zealand, India, Singapore, Hong Kong, Brazil, Mexico and Argentina. .com is fully verified; the rest are best-effort.

Why did my run stop at 2,000 results?

That's Glassdoor's own per-search limit, not the scraper's. Narrow your search with filters (industry, location, salary, job function) to pull the rest.
