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.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.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/platform/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 ![SEEK Job Scraper PRO Banner](https://files.catbox.moe/tsnono.png) ## SEEK Job Scraper PRO — Australia & New Zealand (APAC) ![price](https://img.shields.io/badge/price-$1.50_/_1K-2ea44f) ![coverage](https://img.shields.io/badge/coverage-ANZ_Region-blue) ![rating](https://img.shields.io/badge/rating-5.0★-ffc107) #### 🏆 Top-Rated Data APIs **IntelScrape** builds reliable APIs for agencies & B2B sales. ##### 🔥 Popular Scrapers: 1. **[Local Lead Finder](https://apify.com/intelscrape/website-Leads)** — Extract Google Maps businesses missing a website. 2. **[Skip Trace PRO](https://apify.com/intelscrape/skip-trace-pro)** — Reverse Phone & Email Finder. 3. **[Google Maps Leads](https://apify.com/intelscrape/google-maps-lead-generator)** — Extract raw local businesses & contacts. 4. **[Building Permits](https://apify.com/intelscrape/building-permit-scraper)** — Extract new construction permits. 5. **[UCC Financing](https://apify.com/intelscrape/ucc-lien-scraper)** — MCA & equipment finance leads. 6. **[Shopify Emails](https://apify.com/intelscrape/shopify-owner-email)** — Harvest Shopify founder direct emails. 7. **[Niche E-Com Finder](https://apify.com/intelscrape/niche-ecommerce-website-finder)** — Generate CSVs of e-com URLs in any niche. 8. **[Dice Job Scraper Pro](https://apify.com/intelscrape/dice-jobs)** — Extract fresh IT job postings & salaries. 9. **[Watson OSINT Username Finder](https://apify.com/intelscrape/watson)** — Find Usernames across 400+ Websites. --- ⚡ **Use this Actor in n8n — no code** Building no-code workflows in [n8n](https://n8n.io)?

Whether you are targeting Aussie enterprises in Sydney and Melbourne, or Kiwi businesses in Auckland, this scraper extracts complete listings, salary data (including Superannuation/KiwiSaver), and company intelligence. Unlike basic competitors, we include automatic B2B contact enrichment—instantly finding decision-maker emails & phones to skip the competition.** Most SEEK scrapers just hand you a list of jobs. **This scraper gives you the actual people to contact.** --- ### 🚀 Why Use This Scraper? - **True B2B Contact Enrichment:** We don't just guess emails. Our advanced Regex engine parses the **full job description** to extract the actual recruiter and hiring manager contact details embedded in the text. Get straight through to the decision-makers. - **Applicant Demand Signals:** Spot low-competition roles instantly with our `applicantCount` extraction. Find out exactly how many people have applied to a job. - **API-First Reliability (>98% Success):** Unlike competitors who slowly render the DOM and get blocked by Cloudflare, we target SEEK's backend JSON API directly. Blazing fast, ultra-reliable, and dirt cheap. - **Complete APAC Coverage:** Seamlessly scrape both Australia (`seek.com.au`) and New Zealand (`seek.co.nz`) from the same bot. - **Deep Detail Extraction:** We extract exact salary bands (including Superannuation/KiwiSaver details), classification, and work arrangements. - **Incremental "Delta" Mode:** Turn on Incremental Mode to only scrape jobs that are NEW or have CHANGED since your last run. This saves you massive amounts of money on Pay-Per-Event billing. Absolute game-changer. ### ⏱️ A Note on Scraping Speed & Security You may notice this scraper pulls about **1 to 2 jobs per second**. This is an intentional and highly necessary security feature! By parsing one job at a time at this speed, the bot perfectly mimics a human clicking through job postings. If we went any faster, Cloudflare's aggressive anti-bot systems would immediately detect the superhuman speed, permanently IP-ban the proxies, and block the run entirely. **Recommendation:** Just enter your keywords, hit start, and **let it run for as long as it needs to.** Even at this "human" speed, the scraper can comfortably pull over 2,000 highly-enriched B2B leads an hour completely undetected. It will gracefully shut down the moment it finishes the last page, ensuring you get the absolute most results without ever triggering a block! ### 💰 How Can You Commercialise This Data? Job boards provide the ultimate buying signal. If an enterprise or SME is posting a role, **they have allocated budget ready to deploy.** Here is how our clients monetise this data across AU/NZ: 1. **B2B Lead Generation:** Selling B2B SaaS or professional services? If a company is hiring a "Sales Manager", they likely need CRM software, lead gen services, or sales training. Pitch them exactly when they're scaling up! 2. **Staffing & Recruitment Agencies:** Find companies that are desperately hiring, bypass the generic application portals, and email the hiring managers directly using the enriched contact details to pitch your top-tier candidates. 3. **Data Enrichment & Reselling:** Build massive, enriched datasets of Australian and New Zealand businesses with active hiring budgets, and leverage these highly-targeted lead lists for outbound marketing campaigns. ### 📊 What Data Is Extracted? For every job listing matching your search, you receive: - **Job Title & Direct URL** - **Hiring Company** - **Location, Classification & Sub-Classification** - **Salary Range** (including Super/Bonus details if listed) - **Work Type** (Full-Time, Part-Time, Casual, Contract) - **Full Job Description** - 🌟 **Applicant Demand (`applicantCount`)** - 🌟 **Extracted Contact Emails** (Real emails found in the description) - 🌟 **Extracted Contact Phones** (Real phones found in the description) #### Example Output: ```json { "jobId": 12345678, "title": "Senior Sales Executive", "company": "TechCorp Australia", "location": "Sydney CBD, Inner West & Eastern Suburbs", "salary": "$120k - $150k + Super + Comms", "jobUrl": "https://www.seek.com.au/job/12345678", "postedDate": "2026-07-08T00:00:00.000Z", "workType": "Full Time", "classification": "Sales", "subClassification": "Sales Management", "description": "We are seeking a Senior Sales Executive...
