Ziprecruiter Job Scraper

What does Ziprecruiter Job Scraper do?

Ziprecruiter Job Scraper extracts structured job data from ZipRecruiter across 7 countries: United States, United Kingdom, Ireland, India, Germany, France, and New Zealand. It returns salary data (US), benefits, remote/hybrid status, company metadata, full descriptions, and geo-coordinates. The actor supports keyword search, location filters, and controllable result limits. It also offers incremental monitoring that only returns new or changed results on recurring runs, and a compact output mode for AI-agent and MCP workflows.

What data can you extract from ziprecruiter.com?

Each result includes Core listing fields (jobId, title, location, addressLocality, addressRegion, stateCode, postalCode, and addressCountry, and more), detail fields when enrichment is enabled (benefits, description, and descriptionSnippet), contact and apply information (directApply and applyUrl), and company metadata (company, companyWebsite, and companyLogoUrl). In standard mode, all fields are always present — unavailable data points are returned as null, never omitted. In compact mode, only core fields are returned.

Enable detail enrichment in the input to get richer fields such as full descriptions and company metadata where the source provides them.
