## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## IIMJobs Scraper – MBA, Finance & Management Jobs India

Scrape **IIMJobs.com**, India's leading job board for management, finance, consulting, sales and MBA roles, 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 IIMJobs 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 management and finance hiring by function, 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".

### Input

```json
{
    "queries": ["product manager", "investment banking"],
    "locations": ["Bangalore", "Remote"],
    "minExperience": 3,
    "maxExperience": 8,
    "postedWithinDays": 7,
    "includeDescription": true,
    "maxJobsPerQuery": 200
}
```

| Field | Type | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `queries` | array | Search keywords. One search per keyword, results de-duplicated. Required. |
| `locations` | array | Optional city names (`Bangalore`, `Mumbai`, `Pune`, `Remote`, `Anywhere in India`, …). Substring match on the job's locations. |
| `minExperience` / `maxExperience` | integer | Experience range in years. |
| `postedWithinDays` | integer | Only jobs posted in the last N days. |
| `includeDescription` | boolean | Fetch the full description and recruiter details for each job (default `true`). |
| `maxJobsPerQuery` | integer | Stop paginating a keyword after this many new jobs (default 200). |
| `maxJobs` | integer | Hard cap for the whole run. |
| `site` | string | `iimjobs` (default) or `hirist`. The same Actor can also read Hirist.tech. |

### Output

One record per job:

```json
{
    "id": 1667749,
    "site": "iimjobs",
    "url": "https://www.hirist.tech/j/intellect-design-arena-python-lead-architect-aws-azure-1667749",
    "title": "Intellect Design Arena - Python Lead/Architect - AWS/Azure",
    "designation": "Python Lead",
    "company": {
        "name": "Intellect Design Arena",
        "logo": "https://…/logo.webp",
        "domain": "intellectdesign.com",
        "ambitionBoxRating": 3.6,
        "ambitionBoxReviews": 1840
    },
    "recruiter": { "name": "…", "designation": "Talent Acquisition", "lastActive": "2026-09-03" },
    "experienceMinYears": 9,
    "experienceMaxYears": 18,
    "salaryMinLpa": 30,
    "salaryMaxLpa": 45,
    "salaryHidden": false,
    "locations": ["Chennai", "Mumbai"],
    "remote": false,
    "skills": ["Python", "AWS", "Azure", "Kubernetes"],
    "mandatorySkills": ["Python"],
    "applicants": 112,
    "views": 1543,
    "postedAt": "2026-09-02T04:30:00.000Z",
    "description": "About the role…",
    "descriptionHtml": "<p>About the role…</p>",
    "query": "python developer"
}
```

Download as JSON, CSV, Excel or push to Google Sheets, webhooks and other Apify integrations.

### 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: "hirist"` to scrape IT and tech roles from Hirist.tech with the same fields.

### FAQ

**How much does it cost to scrape IIMJobs?**

$0.002 per job plus $0.002 per full description, so 100 jobs with descriptions cost $0.40.

**Which roles does IIMJobs cover?**

Management, consulting, finance, sales, marketing, HR and MBA-track roles at Indian and global companies.

**Does it return the full job description?**

Yes, plus recruiter name and last-active date, applicant count, salary in LPA when disclosed and AmbitionBox rating.

**Do I need a proxy or login?**

No.
