Workable Jobs Scraper

Scrape job listings from Workable — a platform used by thousands of companies worldwide to post and manage job openings. Search across the global Workable job board, or scrape all jobs from specific company boards by their Workable slug.

• Search all jobs globally — keyword search across 50,000+ live listings with filters for location, employment type, and workplace arrangement
• Get company board jobs — fetch all open positions from one or more specific companies using their Workable slug (e.g. stripe, airbnb)

No authentication or API key required.

Finding a company's Workable slug

The slug is the subdomain part of the company's Workable board URL. For example:

• https://apply.workable.com/stripe/ → slug is stripe
• https://apply.workable.com/airbnb/ → slug is airbnb

Example runs

Search for remote software engineer jobs:

{
  "mode": "searchJobs",
  "query": "software engineer",
  "workplace": "remote",

}

FAQ

Does this require a Workable API key? No. This scraper uses Workable's public job board APIs which require no authentication.

How do I find a company's slug? Visit the company's Workable careers page. The URL format is https://apply.workable.com/{slug}/. Use the part after the last slash as the slug.

What if a company returns 0 jobs? The company may not be actively hiring, or their Workable board may be closed. Try a different slug.

Can I scrape multiple companies at once? Yes. Provide multiple slugs in the companySlugs array in getJobs mode.

How many total jobs does Workable have? Workable's global job board has 50,000+ active listings from thousands of companies worldwide.

What does includeDescription do? By default, descriptions are excluded to keep records small. Enable this flag to include the full HTML description, requirements section, and benefits section in each record.
