Dice Jobs Scraper

Dice (dice.com) is a US job board for technology roles where both employers and staffing firms post. This actor turns a Dice search into one row per job: title, company, city and ZIP code, full-time or contract, who posted it, the pay as posted and as numbers, the skills Dice tags and the full description. Enter data engineer and New York, NY and click Start. Only about half of the jobs carry pay figures, because many recruiters write Depends on Experience. It costs $0.50 per 1,000 jobs on the Free plan ($0.25 on Business), and the $5 of monthly credit in Apify's Free plan covers about 10,000 jobs.

Output fields

Field	Description
title, company	Job title and the hiring company or staffing firm, e.g. IMR Soft LLC.
location, city, state, postalCode	Location as Dice shows it (New York, New York, USA), split into city, two-letter state and ZIP code. The ZIP code comes from the job page.
employmentTypes	One or more of Full-time, Part-time, Contract and Third Party.
employerType	Who posted the job: Direct Hire, Recruiter or Other.
workplaceType, remote	Remote, Hybrid or On-Site when the search asks for one Workplace type. Otherwise the job page, opened when details are on, gives Remote when it says the work can be done fully remotely, and other jobs stay empty. remote follows it: true for Remote, false for Hybrid or On-Site.
easyApply, visaSponsorship	true when the job takes one-click applications on Dice, and when the employer is willing to sponsor a visa.
salaryText	Pay exactly as posted, e.g. USD 116,000.00 - 145,000.00 per year, $60 - $72 per hour or Depends on Experience.
salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryPeriod	The same pay as numbers with a period such as yearly or hourly. Empty when the text has no figures.
skills	Up to 60 skill tags Dice attaches to the job, e.g. Snowflake and ETL.
summary, description, descriptionHtml	The first lines shown in search results, then the full description as plain text and as HTML.
postedAt, updatedAt, validThrough	When the job was posted, last changed and when the posting expires, in UTC.
url, companyUrl	The job page and the company page on dice.com.

How to scrape Dice jobs

1. Type a job title or skill into Keywords as you would on dice.com, e.g. data engineer, devops or salesforce. Leave it empty to read every job.
2. Add a Location as city and state (Austin, TX) and a Radius (miles), 30 by default. Without a location the search covers the whole US, remote jobs included.
3. Narrow the search with Employment types, Workplace, Posted within (today, 3 or 7 days), Employer type, Easy apply only or Visa sponsorship only. Search links copied from dice.com go into Search links from dice.com; each runs as its own search with these filters added.
4. Leave Include full job details on for the description, skills, ZIP code and expiry date. It opens every job page, and a run of 1,500 jobs with details took under 3 minutes. The price is the same either way.
5. Click Start and watch the rows arrive in Output. Download them as CSV, Excel or JSON, or read the dataset through the API.

For API users, a search for contract data engineers posted by direct employers in the last week:

{
  "keywords": "data engineer",
  "location": "New York, NY",
  "radiusMiles": 30,
  "employmentTypes": ["contract"],
  "employerTypes": ["direct_hire"],
  "postedWithin": "7",
  "maxItems": 500
}

Example output

A job from a run on 28 September 2026; description and descriptionHtml are shortened. The run came before the change to remote: it shows Dice's old false flag, and the job would now have remote empty.

How much does it cost to scrape Dice jobs?

	Free plan	Starter	Scale	Business
1,000 jobs	$0.50	$0.40	$0.325	$0.25

You pay only for the events in the table. There is no start fee, and compute time and proxies are included.

Reading 5,000 jobs with full details costs $2.50 on the Free plan and $1.25 on Business. Jobs you drop with Exclude keywords, a job that two search links both return and jobs the new-only mode holds back are free.

Limits

• In a September 2026 run of 1,500 python jobs, 1,300 showed some pay text and 790 had figures that became numbers; 497 said only Depends on Experience.
• Pay posted without a period is read as hourly when the figures are under $500 and as yearly from $20,000. Between the two, the numbers are kept and salaryPeriod stays empty.
• Dice's search results carry no usable workplace type: their work-from-home flag was set on 4 of those 1,500 rows, while the job pages marked 252 as remote. A job page marks only fully remote work, so hybrid and on-site jobs are told apart only by a search with one Workplace type. Most remote jobs have no city (217 of the 252).
• The actor asks Dice for US jobs only.
• Dice's skill tags are not all skills. One data engineer job in New York had Insurance, Law and Television among its 58 tags.
• A job page that does not load leaves its row without description, skills and ZIP code. It happened to 10 of the 1,500 jobs, and the run log reports the count.

A daily list of new Dice jobs

Save your search as a task, turn on Return only jobs new since the last run and add a daily schedule. For runs started without a task, give them the same Watch name, for example nyc-data. Each job is remembered for 90 days after the first run that saw it, so the list you receive holds only postings that are new to you.

FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Dice?

The actor reads job postings that Dice shows to every visitor without an account, through the same search service and job pages the website uses, and it collects no candidate or recruiter profiles. Descriptions come as the poster wrote them, and a few include a recruiter's email address: 17 of 1,490 in a September 2026 run. You are responsible for how you use the data.

How many jobs can one search return?

All of its matches, 100 per request, until Maximum jobs is reached. On 29 September 2026 python matched 30,543 jobs across the US, and on 28 September data engineer within 30 miles of New York matched 693.
