What does Job Description Criteria Extractor do?

Job Description Criteria Extractor reads a job description and returns the screening criteria a resume can prove, each with:

a short label of what to check,
a weight: 3 essential, 2 important, 1 nice to have,
a mandatory flag when the job states a hard requirement,
a rationale explaining why it matters for the job.

Job descriptions can be in any language.

It is powered by the HireLayer recruiting API. Processing runs in the EU.

Why use it?

Structured screening: turn free-text job ads into a checklist recruiters can review and reuse.
Explainable matching: send the criteria unchanged to the AI Candidate Matcher to score every candidate criterion by criterion.
Job board enrichment: tag job postings with their must-have requirements.

How to use it

Paste a job description.
Click Start and open the Criteria table. The complete response is also saved in the OUTPUT record of the key-value store.

Input

{
  "jobDescription": "Senior Frontend Engineer. 5+ years frontend, React and TypeScript in production, fluent English. Nice to have: Next.js."
}

Output

One dataset item per criterion, sorted by weight:

{
  "id": "crit_1",
  "label": "Expérience de 5 ans ou plus en développement frontend",
  "weight": 3,
  "is_mandatory": true,
  "rationale": "Le poste requiert explicitement « 5+ years frontend »…"
}

Pricing

$0.05 per job description, whatever the number of criteria. A run that fails is not charged.

Use it from code

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/hirelayer~job-criteria-extractor/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jobDescription": "…"}'

The Actor is also available to AI agents through the Apify MCP server.

FAQ

Are the criteria always the same for the same job? Two runs can return slightly different criteria. Extract once per job, review the list and reuse it.

Can I call the API directly? Yes, see the HireLayer Job Extract documentation.
