Indeed Job Listings Scraper

What does it do?

Indeed Job Listings Scraper searches Indeed.com for job postings by keyword and location, then extracts detailed listing data. For each job posting found, it captures the job title, company name, salary information (when available), location, posting date, job description snippet, and a direct link to the full listing. This makes it ideal for job market research, salary benchmarking, talent acquisition analysis, and building job aggregation datasets.

The actor supports multiple search keywords in a single run, allowing you to research several job roles simultaneously. It handles pagination automatically to collect the number of results you specify. Results are structured and ready for export in JSON, CSV, or Excel format.

Why use this actor?

Tips and tricks

• Use specific job titles like "senior react developer" rather than generic terms like "developer" for more targeted results
• Set location to "Remote" to find remote-only positions across the US
• Schedule recurring runs with Apify Schedules to monitor new job postings daily
• Use Apify integrations to send results to Google Sheets, Slack, or your ATS
• Combine salary data from multiple keywords to build comprehensive compensation benchmarks
• Start with a small maxResults (e.g., 20) to test your search parameters before running larger extractions
