{
  "id": "50481442",
  "url": "https://www.jobbank.gc.ca/jobsearch/jobposting/50481442",
  "title": "cook",
  "originalTitle": null,
  "employer": "Goat St Restaurant Corp.",
  "employerUrl": null,

Export the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel, or read it through the Apify API.

Why this one

• Structured salary, not buried in free text. salary.minValue/maxValue/unitText/currency are numbers whenever the posting discloses a wage.
• NOC code on every posting, useful for occupation-level analysis without an extra lookup.
• No browser, no proxy, no API key. Job Bank's posting pages are plain server-rendered HTML.

Good to know

• originalTitle is only set for postings mirrored from a third-party board (for example Talent.com): Job Bank shows its own NOC-normalized title plus the recruiter's original wording. Most postings, filed directly by the employer, have none, so this field is empty on the majority of results.
• Many postings do not disclose a salary; salary is null when that is the case, nothing is guessed.
• employerUrl is only set when the employer linked their own website on the posting.
• The dataset contains job postings only. Any named contact's e-mail or phone number found in a posting's text is dropped from description.
• This is an unofficial tool, not affiliated with the Government of Canada or Job Bank. Check the site's terms and the data protection rules that apply to your use.

Run it from your code

JavaScript:

import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('bibian/jobbank-jobs-scraper').call({
  maxItems: 50,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();

Python:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient(token="<APIFY_TOKEN>")

Monitor new postings daily and connect your tools

1. Schedule it. Save a task, set its publication date filter to the shortest window, and schedule it daily with Apify Schedules. Deduplicate on the id field if you keep your own copy. Tick Only new results in the input and each run returns, and charges, only the postings that earlier runs of the same search did not deliver.
2. Push the results where you work. Add an Apify integration or a webhook to the task: Google Sheets, Slack, Make, Zapier, n8n or your own endpoint, triggered at the end of every run.
3. Call it from your stack. The API and the JavaScript and Python clients return the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel.
4. Let an AI agent use it. Through the Apify MCP server, assistants such as Claude or ChatGPT can search the Store, read this page and run the actor as a tool.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need an account, cookies or a proxy for Job Bank Canada? No. The actor reads publicly visible pages only.

Which formats can I export? JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, HTML table or RSS, from the dataset page or through the API.

Is it legal to scrape? The actor collects publicly visible postings and respects the robots.txt rules of the site. How you use the data is your responsibility: check the site's terms and the laws that apply to you, for example the GDPR.

Need another site, a missing field or a new filter? Open an issue in the Issues tab and say what you need, with an example URL if you have one. Requests are read, and the most asked ones are built next.

Need a custom version built for you? I also build private versions and custom scrapers: another site, extra fields, a specific output format, or delivery straight to Google Sheets, a database or a webhook. Open an issue in the Issues tab with what you need and an example URL, and I will reply there with a quote.

Something does not work? Open an issue in the Issues tab. Every public actor is test-run daily and the broken ones are repaired.
