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 ## Working Nomads Jobs Scraper Scrape remote job listings from the **Working Nomads public API** — one of the most trusted sources for remote work opportunities. Browse all remote jobs or filter by category, keyword, and location to find exactly what you need. ### What You Get Each scraped job record includes: | Field | Description | |---|---| | `title` | Job position title | | `company` | Employer name | | `category` | Job category (Development, Design, Marketing, etc.) | | `tags` | Skills and keyword tags | | `location` | Geographic region (Worldwide, USA, Europe, etc.) | | `pubDate` | ISO timestamp when job was published | | `description` | Full job description (HTML stripped, up to 3,000 chars) | | `url` | Link to job posting on Working Nomads | | `applyUrl` | Application link | | `sourceUrl` | Source website URL | | `recordType` | Always `"job"` | | `scrapedAt` | UTC timestamp of scrape | ### Input Options #### Mode (required) | Mode | Description | |---|---| | `browse` | Retrieve all available remote jobs with optional category filter | | `search` | Filter jobs by keyword (searches title, description, tags, and company) | #### Filters | Parameter | Type | Description | |---|---|---| | `query` | string | Keyword to search (e.g. `python`, `react`, `marketing`) | | `category` | select | Filter by job category (Development, Design, Marketing, etc.) | | `maxItems` | integer | Max records to return (1–10,000, default: 100) | ### Available Categories | Category | Slug | |---|---| | Administration | `administration` | | Consulting | `consulting` | | Customer Success | `customer-success` | | Development | `development` | | Design | `design` | | Education | `education` | | Finance | `finance` | | Legal | `legal` | | Healthcare | `healthcare` | | Human Resources | `human-resources` | | Management | `management` | | Marketing | `marketing` | | Sales | `sales` | | System Administration | `system-administration` | | Writing | `writing` | ### Example Inputs **Browse all Development jobs:** ```json { "mode": "browse", "category": "development", "maxItems": 50 } ```` **Search for React developer positions:** ```json { "mode": "search", "query": "react", "maxItems": 25 } ``` **Browse all remote jobs:** ```json { "mode": "browse", "maxItems": 100 } ``` **Search for Python jobs in Development:** ```json { "mode": "search", "query": "python", "category": "development", "maxItems": 30 } ``` ### Use Cases - **Job aggregation**: Build a remote job board or newsletter - **Career tools**: Power job matching and recommendation engines - **Market research**: Track remote hiring trends by category - **Recruitment analytics**: Monitor which skills are most in-demand for remote roles - **Automation**: Set up job alert systems with daily scrape runs ### FAQ **What data source does this actor use?** This actor uses the [Working Nomads public API](https://www.workingnomads.com/api/exposed_jobs/) — a free, open endpoint with no authentication required. **Does it require a proxy or credentials?** No. The Working Nomads API is fully open and works without any credentials, cookies, or proxy configuration. **How current is the data?** Jobs are fetched live from the Working Nomads API at the time of each run. New jobs appear within hours of posting. **Can I search by keyword?** Yes. Use `mode=search` with a `query` parameter. Keyword matching is applied across title, description, tags, and company name. **Does the category filter work server-side?** Yes. The `category` parameter is passed directly to the Working Nomads API for server-side filtering, with additional client-side filtering applied for accuracy. **How many jobs are available?** Working Nomads typically lists dozens to hundreds of fresh remote jobs at any time across all categories. # Actor input Schema ## `mode` (type: `string`): How to fetch jobs. Use 'browse' to get all available jobs; use 'search' to filter by keyword. ## `query` (type: `string`): Text keyword to filter job titles, descriptions, and tags (mode=search). Example: 'python', 'design', 'marketing'. ## `category` (type: `string`): Filter by job category. Leave empty to get all categories. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum number of job records to return (pagination supported). ## Actor input object example ```json { "mode": "browse", "category": "", "maxItems": 5 } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `jobs` (type: `string`): Dataset containing all scraped remote job listings. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "mode": "browse", "category": "", "maxItems": 5 }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("crawlerbros/working-nomads-jobs-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
