## 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

## GulfTalent Job Listings Scraper

Export public GulfTalent job listings into structured records for recruitment research, hiring intelligence, and Gulf job-market analysis. Search by keyword or submit a public GulfTalent search/listing URL, then export listings with company, role, location, salary text, requirements, and company profile when publicly shown.

### Who is it for?

Recruiters, talent-market researchers, staffing teams, and analysts who need a reusable export of public GulfTalent vacancy data rather than manually copying job cards. It is also useful for teams that monitor hiring signals by country, employer, function, or keyword.

### What you get

Each record is one public job listing. The Actor resolves the public listing page where available, so records can include labelled job and company fields beyond search-card text.

```json
{
  "jobId": "616239",
  "title": "Shopify Developer",
  "companyName": "RTC-1 Employment Services",
  "location": "Dubai, UAE",
  "country": "Uae",
  "postedAt": "30 Jul 2026",
  "jobType": "Full Time",
  "jobFunction": "IT - Network Administration",
  "companyIndustry": "Retail",
  "url": "https://www.gulftalent.com/mobile/uae/jobs/shopify-developer-616239"
}
```

### Input recipes

#### Search a role

```json
{
  "searchQueries": ["developer"],
  "maxItems": 10
}
```

#### Use a public GulfTalent page

```json
{
  "searchUrls": [{ "url": "https://www.gulftalent.com/mobile/search/jobs-in-_/finance" }],
  "maxItems": 10
}
```

### Input settings

| Input | Description |
|---|---|
| `searchQueries` | One or more job-title or keyword searches. |
| `searchUrls` | Public GulfTalent search-result or job URLs. |
| `maxItems` | Global maximum listings to export, from 1 to 500. |

Start with a small `maxItems` while confirming your filters. You can combine keywords and public URLs; the global result cap applies across the combined input.

### Output fields

| Field | Description |
|---|---|
| `jobId`, `title`, `url` | Stable public listing identity, title, and canonical listing URL. |
| `companyName`, `companyUrl`, `companyDescription` | Employer fields shown on the public page. |
| `location`, `country`, `postedAt`, `jobType` | Public location and listing metadata. |
| `salaryText`, `salaryCurrency`, `salaryMin`, `salaryMax`, `salaryPeriod` | Advertised salary only; values are `null` when not disclosed. |
| `nationalityRequirement`, `genderRequirement`, `arabicFluencyRequirement` | Labelled candidate requirements when shown. |
| `jobFunction`, `companyIndustry` | Public GulfTalent classifications. |
| `description`, `requirements` | Public job description and requirements text. |
| `applyUrl` | Public application path when the listing exposes one. |
| `source` | Search or listing URL that produced the record. |

### Use cases

- Monitor public hiring activity by role, country, or market.
- Build a structured job-board dataset for market and salary research.
- Compare employers, job functions, locations, and stated requirements.
- Send selected listing URLs into an ATS, spreadsheet, database, or enrichment workflow.
- Track a recurring keyword search with your own scheduled Apify task.

### Pricing

The Actor charges a small one-time **run start** event and an **item** event for each dataset record produced. The item event is the primary usage unit, so partial public results remain visible and bill only for produced records. Current tier-specific rates are shown on the [Pricing tab](https://apify.com/fetch_cat/gulftalent-job-listings-scraper/pricing).

### API usage

Use the API when you want to run the same recipe from an application or workflow. Replace `YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN` with an Apify API token and adjust the input values to your job research need.

#### Node.js

```javascript
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';

const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const run = await client.actor('fetch_cat/gulftalent-job-listings-scraper').call({
  searchQueries: ['developer'], maxItems: 10,
});
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);
```

#### Python

```python
from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN")
run = client.actor("fetch_cat/gulftalent-job-listings-scraper").call(run_input={
    "searchQueries": ["developer"], "maxItems": 10
})
for item in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(item)
```

#### cURL

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/fetch_cat~gulftalent-job-listings-scraper/runs?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"searchQueries":["developer"],"maxItems":10}'
```

### MCP and AI agents

Add this Actor as an Apify MCP tool for an AI assistant. For Claude Code, install the Apify MCP server and scope it to this Actor:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http apify https://mcp.apify.com?tools=fetch_cat/gulftalent-job-listings-scraper
```

Equivalent JSON configuration:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "apify": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=fetch_cat/gulftalent-job-listings-scraper"
    }
  }
}
```

Example prompts:

- “Find up to 20 public GulfTalent developer listings and group them by company.”
- “Export public finance jobs from this GulfTalent search URL to a CSV-ready dataset.”
- “Summarize the job functions and disclosed salary text in these returned records.”

### Integrations

Download the default dataset as JSON, CSV, Excel, or JSONL, or connect an Apify task to your preferred automation tool. Use `jobId` and `url` as stable references when joining later exports, and retain `source` to understand which query or public page produced a row.

### Limits and data quality

- Results reflect what GulfTalent exposes publicly when the run executes; listings can change or disappear.
- Salary, contact, remote-work, and other optional fields are never guessed. Undisclosed values are `null`.
- A public search page can have fewer listings than the requested cap.
- This Actor does not bypass logins, paywalls, or access controls.

### FAQ

#### Why are some fields null?

Public job pages do not disclose every field for every listing. The Actor preserves that distinction rather than inferring values.

#### Can I run several searches together?

Yes. Add several `searchQueries` and/or `searchUrls`; `maxItems` is applied across the combined run.

#### Can I automate recurring exports?

Yes. Save a successful input as an Apify task, then schedule it or trigger it from the API. Keep the maximum item count appropriate for the public search you monitor.

#### Does this work with AI agents?

Yes. Add the MCP configuration above, ask the agent to use a low result limit first, and have it work only from the returned public dataset fields.

#### How does pricing work?

A run start event and each produced dataset item are charged. See the live Pricing tab for current rates by Apify plan.
