## 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

## Paylocity Jobs Scraper

Scrape **130,000+ live job listings** from [Paylocity](https://www.paylocity.com) career pages - US small and mid-size employers across healthcare, skilled trades, hospitality, logistics and professional services. Jobs come directly from the employers' own boards, with expired and ghost listings filtered out. Powered by [Hirebase](https://www.hirebase.org).

Paylocity powers hiring for Main Street America: clinics, dealerships, manufacturers, restaurants, home services. These jobs rarely make it to national job boards - which makes this a goldmine for local job boards and staffing teams.

**Why this scraper?**

- 🇺🇸 **US local hiring** - tens of thousands of employers hiring in specific metros, not just remote tech.
- 🚫 **No expired or ghost jobs** - listings are continuously re-checked and removed when they go offline.
- 🧠 **AI-enriched fields** - parsed pay (often hourly), skills, experience level and benefits on every listing.
- 📍 **Radius search** - target one metro area precisely with location + radius filters.

### What you can filter by

Keywords (e.g. `Customer Service`, `HVAC`, `Dental`), job titles, 39 job categories, locations with radius matching, workplace type, employment type, experience level, salary range, posted date, company size and keywords, industry. The Paylocity source filter is locked in.

### Output

```json
{
  "jobTitle": "Dental Hygienist",
  "companyName": "Smile Partners USA",
  "applicationLink": "https://recruiting.paylocity.com/...",
  "datePosted": "2026-07-26",
  "locationType": "In-Person",
  "location": "Nashville, Tennessee, United States",
  "jobType": "Full Time",
  "salaryRange": { "min": 38, "max": 46, "currency": "USD", "period": "hourly" },
  "jobBoard": "paylocity"
}
```

Each result includes company details, parsed skills and benefits, education level, stable job/company slugs, a cleaned description and the original HTML. Export to JSON, CSV, Excel, or connect Make, n8n, Zapier, Google Sheets or the Apify API.

### Pricing

Pay per result - you are only charged for jobs actually returned, up to **5,000 results per run**.

### FAQ

**Do I need an API key?**
No - API access is built into the actor.

**Who uses this actor?**
Local job boards, staffing agencies sourcing candidates in a metro, and market researchers tracking SMB wage trends - the parsed hourly `salaryRange` makes pay benchmarking straightforward.

**Can I build a single-city job feed?**
Yes - set *Locations* to your city with a radius (e.g. 25 miles), optionally a category, and run daily on a schedule with *Posted within (days) = 1*.

**Are these mostly hourly roles?**
Mixed - lots of hourly healthcare, trades and service roles alongside salaried office positions. The salary `period` field tells you which is which.

**Is this legal?**
The data comes from publicly posted job listings on company career pages, accessed via the Hirebase API.
