- **Full Actor documentation**: https://apify.com/getascraper/iimjobs-scraper.md

## Changelog

### \[1.2.0] - 2026-09-21

#### Changed

- ⚙️ **Clearer Monitoring Scope Field**: The monitoring-scope input field has been renamed to `monitorScope` for clarity. Existing scheduled runs that already pass the previous field name continue to work without any changes.

### \[1.1.0] - 2026-09-07

#### Added

- ✨ **40+ Fields Per Job, No Extra Cost**: Every job row now includes recruiter name and title, company rating, review count and about text, employer domain, view count, application count, and a competition ratio — all included by default, with no need to enable deep scraping.
- ➕ **Diversity & Listing Signals**: New fields flag female-candidate-preferred, differently-abled-friendly, ex-defence-preferred, and women-returning-to-work roles, plus which listings are premium, starred, or branded (a strong signal of an employer's urgency to hire).
- 📋 **Multi-Keyword & Start URL Search**: Search several job titles in a single run, or paste specific IIMJobs job links to enrich exactly those listings.
- 🔍 **Browse-All Mode**: Leave the keyword empty to browse every current listing, optionally narrowed by location or industry.
- 🎯 **New Filters**: Filter by date posted, minimum disclosed salary, work-from-home, and the diversity flags above.
- 📊 **Real Coverage Reporting**: Every run now reports how many jobs are actually available on IIMJobs for your search versus how many were scraped, so you know exactly what you're sampling.
- 🔔 **Monitoring Mode with Change Detection**: Track a saved search over scheduled runs and get only new jobs, with automatic flags for reposted roles, newly revealed salaries, and sudden spikes in applicant interest.
- 🎁 **Free Company & Recruiter Intelligence**: A bonus, non-billed dataset rolling up every hiring company and recruiter seen in your run, plus a salary benchmark — with an honest disclosure-rate figure, since only a small share of IIMJobs listings publish salary at all.

#### Changed

- ⚡ **Lower Compute Footprint**: Right-sized default memory based on measured real-world usage, so you pay for exactly what the Actor needs.

#### Fixed

- 🧹 **Authentic Salary Data**: Replaced a placeholder "Hidden" value on undisclosed salaries with a real, honest signal (present when disclosed, absent otherwise) — no more fake-looking data in your exports.
- 🐛 **No More Duplicate Listings**: Fixed an edge case where the same job could appear twice across search result pages.

### \[1.0.0] - 2026-08-18

#### Added

- ✨ **Premium Management Sourcing**: Initial release of the IIMJobs Scraper targeting premium MBA, CA, CFA, and senior executive jobs in India.
- ⚡ **Full Description Extraction**: Extracted the complete unmasked job description (introText) to provide full visibility into role requirements.
- 📋 **Flexible Search Options**: Added search filters for min/max experience years and pre-defined location selections for major Indian job hubs (Mumbai, Bangalore, Delhi NCR, and more).
- 🛡️ **Anti-Blocking Integration**: Embedded built-in support for proxy configurations, ensuring continuous, high-volume sourcing success.
- 🧹 **Authentic Datasets**: Pushed clean, authentic data by omitting missing or unavailable fields rather than inserting fake placeholder values.
- 📦 **Seamless Monorepo Integration**: Successfully registered workspace under npm workspaces for modularity and high performance.
