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.

### 🎯 Turn public hiring activity into a useful signal Monitor public SmartRecruiters company boards for new, updated, returning, and confirmed closed postings, with optional detail collection for application and role context. Each record stays connected to the public listing so a recruiter, analyst, or operations team can verify the context before acting. #### Who gets value - **I am a competitive intelligence manager** looking to compare hiring activity across a selected company list with a trustworthy source link. - **I am a recruiting operations lead** looking to keep a clean, current feed of roles without checking company sites by hand. - **I am a research analyst** looking to compare hiring signals across a defined company list. ### ⚡ Get results in three steps Start with a small public source to confirm the output fits your workflow. Repeat the same setup on an Apify schedule when you need ongoing visibility.

### ❓ Frequently asked questions These answers cover the safest way to get a reliable first result. Use a separate saved state for each independent watchlist or client workflow. #### Can I start with a normal public source link? Yes. Paste the public source described in the input form, then use the available filters to narrow the collection. #### Can I use this for recurring monitoring? Yes. Run it on an Apify schedule and choose the change-focused output when you only need records that have meaningfully changed. #### How are closed roles handled? A role is only treated as closed after complete checks confirm that it is no longer present. This reduces false closure events caused by incomplete source results. #### Do I need access to the employer system? No. This Actor is designed for publicly available listings and does not request employer, applicant, or account access. ### 🛡️ Use public information responsibly Use the records for legitimate talent research, recruiting operations, and internal market analysis. Respect the source’s terms and intended use, minimize retention, and do not use the data to make sensitive decisions about individuals. ### 🔗 Other actors These adjacent Actors cover public hiring sources that teams often track alongside this one.
