## 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.md):

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

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

## Lever Job Scraper — Clean Schema + Seniority + Remote Type

For talent intelligence and job aggregation teams that scrape Spotify, GitHub, Netflix, Lyft, Figma — and need all office locations per posting, not just the primary.

**Pay per result — $1.50 / 1,000 jobs.** No API key. No proxy. Official Lever API — no bans.

Extract job postings from any **Lever-powered career page** — Spotify, Netflix, GitHub, Lyft, Figma, Brex, and 5,000+ more companies. Uses Lever's official public API: zero auth, zero proxy cost, zero bans.

### What makes this scraper better?

Most Lever scrapers return raw API fields with minimal processing. This one adds:

| Edge | What it means |
|---|---|
| **Canonical seniority** | Inferred from title: `executive / vp / director / manager / principal / staff / lead / senior / intern / entry / mid` |
| **Canonical remote_type** | `remote / hybrid / onsite` — from `workplaceType` first, location text fallback |
| **Full merged descriptions** | All Lever sub-sections merged: intro + body + bullet lists + additional info |
| **Salary extraction** | Parsed from `salaryDescription` when the company populates it |
| **allLocations** | Multi-location postings include all posting locations, not just the primary |
| **parse_confidence** | Machine-readable quality score per record (0.0–1.0) + warnings list |
| **global_id** | `lever:<company>:<job_id>` — stable deduplication key across runs |
| **Clean, flat schema** | Predictable column set every run — no surprise null keys |

### Input

```json
{
  "companies": ["spotify", "github", "netflix"],
  "titleKeyword": "engineer",
  "locationKeyword": "New York",
  "remoteOnly": false,
  "includeDescriptions": true,
  "maxJobsPerCompany": 50,
  "maxTotalJobs": 0
}
````

**How to find a company slug:** Go to `jobs.lever.co/<slug>` — the slug is the part after `lever.co/`. Example: `jobs.lever.co/spotify` → slug is `spotify`.

### Output schema

```json
{
  "company":          "spotify",
  "title":            "Senior Software Engineer",
  "location":         "New York, NY",
  "all_locations":    "New York, NY, San Francisco, CA",
  "remote_type":      "hybrid",
  "seniority":        "senior",
  "department":       "Engineering",
  "team":             "Platform",
  "employment_type":  "Full-time",
  "salary":           "$150,000 – $200,000 USD",
  "url":              "https://jobs.lever.co/spotify/abc123",
  "apply_url":        "https://jobs.lever.co/spotify/abc123/apply",
  "posted_at":        "2024-01-15T08:30:00+00:00",
  "job_id":           "abc123",
  "global_id":        "lever:spotify:abc123",
  "description_text": "We are looking for…",
  "description_html": "<p>We are looking for…</p>",
  "parse_confidence": 1.0,
  "warnings":         []
}
```

### Use cases

- **AI job-matching pipelines** — clean, flat schema feeds LLMs and vector DBs
- **Talent intelligence** — track competitor hiring signals in real time
- **Job aggregator sites** — populate boards with fresh postings
- **Recruitment research** — analyze tech hiring trends, seniority distributions
- **Sales prospecting** — identify companies actively hiring in specific roles

### Pricing

Pay-per-result PPE model: **$1.50 / 1,000 jobs** ($0.0015 per record).

**Worked example:** 5 companies × 50 jobs = 250 results = **$0.38**. 20 companies × 100 jobs = 2,000 results = **$3.00**.

### FAQ

**Do I need an API key or proxy?**
No. Lever's public API (`api.lever.co/v0/postings/<slug>`) is open — no auth, no proxy cost, no bans.

**What output formats are available?**
JSON, JSONL, CSV, and Excel via the Apify dataset export, plus the Apify REST API.

**Can I schedule daily runs?**
Yes — use Apify Scheduler. Each run returns the current open jobs; use `global_id` (`lever:<company>:<job_id>`) as a stable key for deduplication.

**What if a company returns 0 jobs or the slug is wrong?**
The actor logs a warning, records the slug in `failedDetails`, and continues with the remaining companies — no crash, no broken run.

### Integrations

Built for talent-intelligence and job-aggregation teams tracking open roles with seniority, remote type, and salary across Lever boards — the JSON/dataset output drops into the tools you already run, no glue code:

- **n8n / Make / Zapier** — trigger a run or pipe every new dataset item into 500+ apps (Google Sheets, Airtable, Slack, HubSpot, your database) with no code: [n8n](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/n8n), [Make](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/make), [Zapier](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/zapier).
- **Webhooks** — fire your own endpoint the moment a run finishes, to push results straight into your pipeline ([docs](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/webhooks)).
- **MCP server** — expose this actor as a tool to Claude, Cursor, or any [MCP client](https://mcp.apify.com) so an AI agent can pull this data mid-conversation ([guide](https://blog.apify.com/how-to-use-mcp/)).
- **API & SDKs** — fetch the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel through the Apify REST API or the Python / JS SDKs.

See all [Apify integrations](https://apify.com/integrations).

### Is it legal?

Yes. We query Lever's official public API (`api.lever.co/v0/postings/<slug>?mode=json`), which is publicly accessible without authentication. No personal data beyond what companies choose to publish publicly.

### Competitor comparison

| Feature | This actor | satish5813/lever-jobs-scraper | bytepulselabs/lever-job-scraper |
|---|---|---|---|
| Seniority field | ✅ (11 levels) | ❌ | ❌ |
| Canonical remote\_type | ✅ | ✅ raw field | partial |
| Merged descriptions (all sections) | ✅ | partial | partial |
| parse\_confidence per record | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ |
| `all_locations` (multi-location postings) | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ |
| global\_id for deduplication | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ |
| Title keyword filter | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |
| Location keyword filter | ✅ | ✅ | ❌ |
| Remote-only filter | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ |
| `maxTotalJobs` cap (billing safety) | ✅ | ❌ | ❌ |
| Official API (no DOM scraping) | ✅ | ✅ | ✅ |
| Price | $1.50/1k | varies | varies |

`all_locations` is unique to this actor in the cluster: multi-location Lever postings include every office, not just the primary posting location. Essential for global talent intelligence.

`parse_confidence` (0.0–1.0) and `warnings` in every record — deductions for missing job\_id (0.50), title (0.30), url (0.10), location (0.05), posted\_at (0.05), description (0.05).

### Use with AI agents (MCP)

This actor is MCP-compatible. Use it as a data source in n8n, Make, or any LLM agent pipeline.

```
https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=bovi/lever-job-scraper
```

The flat schema with `global_id` (`lever:<company>:<job_id>`) and `all_locations` is designed for LLM pipelines, vector databases, and n8n/Make job-matching workflows. Need to cover Greenhouse, Ashby, Recruitee, SmartRecruiters and Personio too? Use the flagship [Multi-ATS Job Scraper](https://apify.com/bovi/greenhouse-lever-ashby-job-scraper) — all 6 ATS in one unified schema.

# Actor input Schema

## `companies` (type: `array`):

List of Lever company slugs. Each slug is the part after jobs.lever.co/ in the URL. Example: for jobs.lever.co/spotify the slug is 'spotify'.
