Employer-Direct Jobs API — Job Opportunities API (JOA) on Apify

Search live and closed job listings taken straight from the source: employer applicant-tracking systems, company career pages and public employment agencies. More than 2 million live listings worldwide, of which 466,000+ employer-direct listings in Europe — with every field labelled published or inferred so you know what the employer said and what we guessed.

This Actor is the Apify edition of jobopportunitiesapi.org. No scraping happens at run time: it reads a continuously refreshed ledger, so runs are fast, stable and cheap — no proxies, no blocked requests, no broken selectors.

What you can pull

Mode	What it returns	Typical use
Jobs	Live vacancies, newest first	Job boards, AI job agents, lead lists, market research
Closed jobs	Roles that left their source, with closed_at and closed_reason	Hiring-signal data: how fast do employers fill roles?
Companies	Employers with open roles, industry, org type, website, open-role counts	Sales prospecting, employer databases

Why this data is different

• Per-field provenance. field_sources marks each field published, inferred or absent. Filter to source-confirmed remote status only.
• Freshness you can query. last_verified_at is when we last re-confirmed the vacancy at its source — about 97% of the ledger is re-checked inside 48 hours. Filter with Re-verified within (days).
• Closure history. Roles that came off their source are kept, with the reason.
• Every row links to the employer's own apply page (apply_url) and to a public JOA page (joa_url).
• Redistribution is enforced by a database join, not a filter someone can forget: only employer ATS, career-site and government-agency sources are served.

Honest coverage notes

• Salary is published by the employer on roughly 2% of rows. Use Only rows with a published salary together with a country.
• Remote / hybrid / on-site is inferred for most rows; tick Only source-confirmed remote status if you need certainty.
• Seniority and category are inferred and shown only when confidence is high; otherwise they are absent, never guessed.

Empty pages and searches that match nothing cost nothing beyond the start fee. Set Max results and Apify's maximum cost per run to cap spend; the run stops the moment either is reached. The Apify free plan's monthly credit covers roughly 2,500 job listings.

Input

Every field is optional; the defaults return 100 recent jobs.

{
  "mode": "jobs",
  "query": "data engineer",
  "countries": ["DE", "NL"],
  "remote": ["remote", "hybrid"],
  "seniorities": ["Senior", "Lead"],
  "verifiedWithinDays": 2,
  "postedWithinDays": 14,
  "includeDescription": false,
  "maxResults": 500
}

Filters cover: full-text query, title include/exclude, description text, countries, city, work model, employment type, seniority, job category, source type, company slugs, company domains, published salary and minimum annual salary (EUR), posted / re-verified / closed windows, and full advert text.

Pulling a large set in several runs

Each run writes a SUMMARY record to the key-value store containing next_cursor when more results exist. Paste it into Start cursor (keep the other inputs identical) to continue exactly where the previous run stopped.

FAQ

Is this scraping LinkedIn or Indeed? No. Those aggregators are excluded on purpose. Listings come from employer ATS platforms (Greenhouse, Lever, Workday, SmartRecruiters and many more), company career pages and public agencies.

How fresh is it? The ledger refreshes every few hours; each row carries last_verified_at.

Can I integrate directly instead? Yes — the same data is available as a REST API with a free tier at jobopportunitiesapi.org, and per call on API.market. This Actor is the pay-per-result option inside Apify.

A run failed with a credential message. That is an operator-side problem, never your input. Please open an issue on the Actor's Issues tab.
