Hirist Jobs Scraper – Full Descriptions, Salary, Recruiter

Scrape Hirist.tech, India's largest IT and tech job board, into clean JSON. Search by keyword, filter by city, experience range and posting freshness, and get every field the site shows plus the ones it hides in its API: full job description, salary in LPA (when disclosed), mandatory vs optional skills, applicant count, views, recruiter name and last-active date, and the company's AmbitionBox rating.

No login, no cookies, no proxy, no browser. Runs in seconds and you pay only per job returned.

Why this scraper

• Full descriptions included. Most Hirist scrapers only return the search card. This one fetches the detail record for every job, so you get the complete JD as HTML and as plain text.
• Recruiter activity. recruiter.lastActive tells you whether the posting is actually being worked. Great for filtering stale listings.
• Applicant and view counts show competition per role.
• Salary in LPA whenever the recruiter disclosed it, with an explicit salaryHidden flag otherwise.
• 114 locations understood, from Bangalore to Remote to "Anywhere in India".
• Cheap and fast. Pure JSON API calls, ~20 jobs per request, typically 100 jobs in well under a minute.

Who uses it

• Recruiters and staffing agencies tracking competitor postings and salary bands.
• HR-tech and job-aggregator products that need a reliable Hirist feed.
• Job seekers building personal alert bots.
• Market researchers analysing India tech hiring by skill, city and experience.
• AI agents – works as an MCP tool, so an agent can answer "find remote senior Python roles posted this week with disclosed salary".

Pricing

Pay per event:

• Job – one charge per job returned from search.
• Job description – one extra charge per job when includeDescription is on.

A 100-job run with descriptions costs well under a dollar. There is no separate compute charge.

Tips

• Use several specific keywords instead of one broad one; the API returns up to 20 jobs per page and the Actor de-duplicates across keywords.
• Combine postedWithinDays: 1 with a daily schedule to get a fresh-jobs feed.
• recruiter.lastActive older than two weeks usually means the posting is dormant.
• Set site: "iimjobs" to scrape management, finance and consulting roles from IIMJobs.com with the same fields.
