Workable Job Scraper | $1.50/1K — Department + Benefits, No Login

For recruiters and HR-tech builders targeting EU and global startups — Workable is used by 30,000+ companies across 100+ countries.

Pricing: $1.50/1,000 jobs (descriptions: ~$2.00/1K)

Zero auth. Zero proxy. Workable's robots.txt explicitly permits AI input — this is one of the cleanest legal positions in job scraping.

Scrape job postings from any Workable-powered company careers page. Returns structured data including job descriptions, seniority level, remote type, and parse confidence — for one or many companies in a single run.

What it does

• Fetches all open jobs from Workable company boards via public zero-auth endpoints
• Normalizes into a 20-field flat schema with cross-company consistency
• Enriches with seniority (11 levels: executive → intern → mid) and remote type (hybrid / remote / onsite) using Workable's authoritative native field
• Combines description + requirements + benefits into one HTML/text output
• Reports parse_confidence so you can detect API drift before it becomes data corruption
• Zero auth, zero proxy — no API key required, runs on any plan

Finding your Workable slug

The slug is the path component after apply.workable.com/. For example:

• https://apply.workable.com/skroutz/ → slug is skroutz
• https://apply.workable.com/stoiximan/ → slug is stoiximan

Pricing example

Run	Jobs returned	Cost
Trial (2 companies, 50-cap default)	~100	~$0.15
1,000 jobs (20 companies)	1,000	$1.50
10,000 jobs (bulk)	10,000	$15.00

FAQ

Do I need an API key or proxy? No. Workable's robots.txt explicitly permits AI input. Zero credentials needed.

What formats can I export? JSON, CSV, Excel, or JSONL — from the Apify dataset UI or REST API.

Can I schedule daily runs? Yes. Apify Schedules let you run daily and compare job_id sets to detect new openings automatically.

What if a company returns empty or gives a 404? The actor logs the failure and skips to the next slug cleanly — no crash, no charge for that company.

Technical notes

• Uses Workable's public jobs.md endpoint to retrieve all job shortcodes without pagination issues
• Fetches per-job detail from /api/v2/accounts/<slug>/jobs/<shortcode> for full descriptions
• Both endpoints are zero-authentication public APIs; no browser or proxy required
• parse_confidence deducts for missing title, job ID, URL, date, or description — a score below 0.8 signals API drift

Use with AI agents (MCP)

This actor is available via Apify's MCP server. Connect it to any MCP-compatible agent (Claude, n8n, Make) to pull live Workable job data on demand — no code required.

Integrations

Built for recruiters and HR-tech builders mapping open roles across EU and global startups running Workable — 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, Make, Zapier.
• Webhooks — fire your own endpoint the moment a run finishes, to push results straight into your pipeline (docs).
• MCP server — expose this actor as a tool to Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client so an AI agent can pull this data mid-conversation (guide).
• API & SDKs — fetch the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel through the Apify REST API or the Python / JS SDKs.

See all Apify integrations.

Legal

This actor scrapes publicly available job data from Workable's career pages. Workable's robots.txt explicitly allows search and AI input (Content-Signal: search=yes, ai-input=yes). Not affiliated with or endorsed by Workable.

Use it from your existing tools

Use with Claude Desktop / Cursor / Cline (MCP)

Load this actor as a tool in your AI assistant. Call it directly from your AI assistant via the Apify MCP server — no Store browsing needed. Paste this into your MCP client config (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json) and restart the client:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify-workable-job-scraper": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@apify/actors-mcp-server",
        "--tools",
        "bovi/workable-job-scraper"
      ],
      "env": {
        "APIFY_TOKEN": "YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN with your own Apify API token (free at apify.com → Settings → Integrations). Curated to a handful of tools so the agent selects reliably.

Works with Clay

Run this actor as an HTTP enrichment step inside a Clay table:

• Method: POST
• URL: https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/bovi~workable-job-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token={{apify_token}}
• Body (JSON): map your Clay columns to the actor input (see the Input section above), e.g. {"companies": "{{clay_column}}"}

The run finishes synchronously and returns the dataset rows straight into your Clay table. It runs on Apify's cloud under your own token and usage. Synchronous runs must complete within 300 seconds.
