How It Works

Uses CheerioCrawler (no JavaScript needed — Shine.com is server-side rendered) to fetch job listings. Extracts structured JSON from Shine.com's __NEXT_DATA__ embedded in the page HTML via the jsrp.searchresult.data.results path. Paginates via URL pattern ({kw}-jobs-{N}/).

Notes

• Proxy: Residential proxy is highly recommended — set proxyConfiguration: { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] }
• Rate limits: Keep result limits reasonable per run to avoid IP bans
• Scheduling: Use Apify Scheduler to run this actor on a recurring basis for a consistently fresh dataset
