## 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.

# README

## Workable Jobs Scraper

Scrape job listings from [Workable](https://workable.com/) — 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.

### What does it do?

This actor fetches job data from Workable's public API. You can:

- **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.

### Output

Each record contains:

| Field | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `id` | Unique job UUID |
| `title` | Job title |
| `department` | Department or team |
| `employmentType` | Full-time, Part-time, Contract, etc. |
| `workplace` | `remote`, `on_site`, or `hybrid` |
| `locations` | Array of location strings |
| `locationCity` | City (denormalized) |
| `locationCountry` | Country name (denormalized) |
| `created` | ISO 8601 creation timestamp |
| `updated` | ISO 8601 last-updated timestamp |
| `url` | Link to the job listing |
| `sourceUrl` | Same as url |
| `company.title` | Company name |
| `company.website` | Company website |
| `companyName` | Denormalized company name |
| `state` | Job state (e.g. "published") |
| `language` | Language code (e.g. "en") |
| `isFeatured` | Whether it's a featured listing |
| `description` | Full HTML description *(only if `includeDescription=true`)* |
| `requirementsSection` | HTML requirements *(only if `includeDescription=true`)* |
| `benefitsSection` | HTML benefits *(only if `includeDescription=true`)* |
| `recordType` | Always `"job"` |
| `scrapedAt` | ISO timestamp when this record was scraped |

#### Company board mode (`getJobs`) additional fields

| Field | Description |
|-------|-------------|
| `shortcode` | Company-specific job shortcode |
| `companySlug` | The company's Workable slug |
| `applicationUrl` | Direct application URL |
| `shortlink` | Short URL for the job |
| `remote` | Boolean — is it remote? |
| `city` | City from company board |
| `country` | Country code from company board |

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|-------|------|---------|-------------|
| `mode` | select | `searchJobs` | `searchJobs` (global search) or `getJobs` (company boards) |
| `query` | text | — | Keyword search (searchJobs mode) |
| `location` | text | — | Location filter (searchJobs mode) |
| `employmentType` | select | — | Employment type filter |
| `workplace` | select | — | Workplace filter: `remote`, `on_site`, `hybrid` |
| `companySlugs` | array | — | Company Workable slugs for `getJobs` mode |
| `includeDescription` | boolean | `false` | Include full HTML description, requirements, and benefits |
| `maxItems` | integer | 100 | Maximum records to emit |

#### 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:**
```json
{
  "mode": "searchJobs",
  "query": "software engineer",
  "workplace": "remote",
  "maxItems": 50
}
````

**Search full-time jobs in Berlin:**

```json
{
  "mode": "searchJobs",
  "location": "Berlin",
  "employmentType": "full-time",
  "maxItems": 30
}
```

**Get all jobs from specific companies:**

```json
{
  "mode": "getJobs",
  "companySlugs": ["stripe", "airbnb", "figma"],
  "includeDescription": true,
  "maxItems": 200
}
```

### Use cases

- **Competitive intelligence** — monitor hiring at competitor or target companies
- **Job aggregation** — build job boards or alert systems from Workable-powered postings
- **Talent market research** — analyze which skills and roles are in demand by geography or company type
- **Recruitment tooling** — feed job data into ATS or outreach pipelines

### 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.
