## 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

## Computrabajo Scraper — Scrape Latin America Jobs, Listings & Salaries

**Scrape Computrabajo** job listings at scale into clean JSON, CSV, Excel or XML. This Computrabajo scraper extracts **job title, company, location, salary, posted date and apply URL** for every offer across **18 Latin American country markets** — Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Chile, Peru and more. A fast, reliable, no-code way to build a LatAm jobs dataset, with no login and nothing to set up.

Computrabajo is one of Latin America's largest job boards, so scraping it by hand across country sites is slow. This Actor turns any keyword and country into a structured jobs feed in one run — an easy, cheap alternative to copying listings manually.

### What does the Computrabajo Scraper do?

The Computrabajo Scraper crawls and extracts public **job listings** by **country market and search keyword**. Pick a country (like Mexico or Colombia), type a role such as `desarrollador`, `ventas` or `contador`, set a limit, and it returns structured data points — job title, employer, city, salary, how recently the offer was posted and a direct apply link — ready for analytics, datasets, LLM pipelines, recruiting tools or lead generation.

| Group | Fields |
|---|---|
| 💼 **Role** | job title |
| 🏢 **Company** | employer name (or the anonymous employer description) |
| 📍 **Location** | city / region of the offer |
| 💰 **Salary** | salary where the employer publishes it |
| 🕒 **Posted** | how recently the listing was posted |
| 🌎 **Country** | the country market the listing came from |

2. Choose a **country** market (e.g. Mexico, Colombia, Argentina).

}
```

One of `mx`, `co`, `ar`, `cl`, `pe`, `ec`, `ve`, `gt`, `cr`, `pa`, `do`, `uy`, `bo`, `py`, `sv`, `hn`, `ni`, `pr` (Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Chile, Peru, Ecuador, Venezuela, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Panama, Dominican Republic, Uruguay, Bolivia, Paraguay, El Salvador, Honduras, Nicaragua, Puerto Rico). |

Use `keyword` to narrow results to a role, skill or vertical, or leave it empty to collect every current listing in the chosen country.

No. The Computrabajo Scraper needs no login, no account and no key — just choose a country, add an optional keyword and run.
