# Open-role counts and hiring velocity per company

**Use case:** 

Watches the Greenhouse, Ashby, Lever and Workable boards of Stripe, Ramp, Lever and Lyst and returns one summary row per company each run: roles open now, roles opened and closed since the last run, and the departments that moved. Schedule it weekly to see who is scaling and who has frozen hiring. $1.20 per 1,000 change rows — a quiet company costs a fraction of a cent.

## About this Actor

This example demonstrates how to use [New Job Postings Monitor — Hiring Signals & Change Alerts](https://apify.com/insight.solutions/job-postings-monitor.md) with a specific input configuration. Visit the [Actor detail page](https://apify.com/insight.solutions/job-postings-monitor.md) to learn more, explore other use cases, and run it yourself.


## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/insight.solutions/job-postings-monitor.md

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).
