Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. 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. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Hiring Signal Lead Finder This actor helps sales teams, recruiters, staffing agencies, and B2B operators find companies showing active hiring demand. It searches public job, ATS, marketplace, and career-page result surfaces, then turns noisy result pages into compact company lead rows. ### What it is useful for - Use it when hiring activity is a buying signal for software, services, recruiting, payroll, training, equipment, agencies, or local B2B outreach. - Building cleaner research exports from messy public web surfaces. - Prioritizing prospects, pages, communities, or knowledge sources before manual review. - Feeding structured records into spreadsheets, CRMs, dashboards, or automation workflows. ### Input Provide one or more values in `hiringSearches`. ```json { "hiringSearches": [ "ai sales engineer remote", "healthcare data analyst jobs" ], "maxItems": 8, "requestTimeoutSecs": 25, "maxConcurrency": 3 } ```` ### Output you get The dataset is intentionally compact and buyer-facing. Important fields include: - `hiringSearch` - `hiringSignalLevel` - `hiringSignals` - `companyLeads.companyOrPage` - `companyLeads.sourceType` - `companyLeads.roleHints` - `companyLeads.hiringEvidenceUrl` - `outreachAngle` ### Practical workflow 1. Start with a small list of searches or URLs. 2. Review the first dataset rows and confirm the signals match your market. 3. Increase the input list for larger research batches. 4. Export the dataset to CSV, JSON, Google Sheets, or your automation pipeline. ### Notes and limitations - The actor uses public web data and does not bypass login walls, private content, CAPTCHA, or protected dashboards. - Public search snippets and pages can change, so results should be treated as research signals rather than legal, financial, or valuation advice. - The output avoids raw HTML and noisy debug fields so buyers can act on the data immediately. # Actor input Schema ## `hiringSearches` (type: `array`): Search phrases to process. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Maximum lead/results/chunks to keep per input. ## `requestTimeoutSecs` (type: `integer`): Maximum time to wait for each public web request. ## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`): How many inputs to process at the same time. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Optional Apify proxy configuration. ## Actor input object example ```json { "hiringSearches": [ "ai sales engineer remote", "healthcare data analyst jobs" ], "maxItems": 8, "requestTimeoutSecs": 25, "maxConcurrency": 3, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `results` (type: `string`): No description ## `summary` (type: `string`): No description # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "hiringSearches": [ "ai sales engineer remote", "healthcare data analyst jobs" ] }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("glowing_glove/hiring-signal-lead-finder").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`💾 Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // 📚 Want to learn more 📖?
