Talent.com Public Jobs Search Scraper

Extract detail-verified public jobs from Talent.com. The Actor supports bounded keyword search plus single and multiple exact-job modes. It runs requests sequentially, buffers requested details, verifies canonical job IDs, and writes only complete records.

Input

{
  "mode": "search",
  "query": "developer",
  "location": "Arlington, VA",
  "maxItems": 3,
  "maxPages": 1
}

Use mode: "single" with jobUrl, or mode: "multiple" with jobUrls, directUrls, or startUrls. Runs are bounded to 10 records and 3 listing pages. The Actor attempts ordinary direct HTTPS only; it does not use a proxy, browser fingerprint changes, or challenge solver. There is no configurable User-Agent or concurrency input.

Output

Each dataset item contains only a complete, detail-verified job row: the Talent.com job ID and canonical URL, title, company, visible HTML/text/Markdown description and source paragraphs, structured location where published, salary/employment/application data where available, original source payloads, and quality flags. Request receipts and diagnostics are stored separately in the default key-value store as REQUEST_RECEIPTS and RUN_DIAGNOSTICS; OUTPUT_SUMMARY and RUN_HEALTH are also available there. status describes the Apify process (SUCCEEDED or FAILED), while resultStatus describes extraction (COMPLETE, LIMITED, SKIPPED, DEFERRED, NO_DATA, or FAILED).

A 401, 403, 429, 451, or explicit source-authored verification/access-denial challenge stops requests and discards all buffered rows; the handled outcome is platform SUCCEEDED with resultStatus: SKIPPED. Generic network, timeout, transient HTTP, unrecognized-empty, and extraction failures are DEFERRED when no row was stored, or LIMITED when complete rows were stored; they are not evidence that Talent.com blocked access. NO_DATA requires a successful listing receipt with explicit source-authored empty-results evidence for every requested listing; the Actor does not infer it from an empty parser result. A dataset write failure preserves any successfully written prefix as SUCCEEDED / LIMITED; fatal zero-row runtime or storage failures are FAILED / FAILED. Diagnostics and receipts stay in KVS, never in the jobs dataset. HTTP 407 is deferred because it indicates network authentication rather than proving a Talent.com barrier. The “This job offer is not available in your country” message is job-application availability information, not an access challenge, and remains availabilityMessage when the detail page is readable.
