A live Workday API for job postings. Extract every job from any Workday-powered careers site as clean, structured JSON: paste a careers URL like https://nvidia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/NVIDIAExternalCareerSite and get back the complete, current job list with titles, locations, exact ISO posted dates, full descriptions, pay ranges, employment type, remote status, requisition IDs, and direct apply URLs.

Thousands of large employers run their hiring on the Workday ATS: Fortune 500 companies, banks, hospitals, universities, airlines, and chipmakers. Their public job listings live on myworkdayjobs.com career sites, and Workday's official APIs cover internal HR integrations, not this public careers data. This actor fills that gap: it reads the same public data feed each careers page itself uses, so results are always live and complete - no stale database, no proxies, no login, and no browser rendering.

Why this Workday jobs scraper

  • Any Workday URL works. Both myworkdayjobs.com and myworkdaysite.com sites, with or without locale segments like /en-US/. The actor resolves the tenant and career site automatically.
  • Live and complete. Every run pulls the full current job list straight from the careers site, including the site's own total count.
  • Deep detail records. Full HTML and plain-text descriptions, exact posted and end dates, every location on multi-location postings, country codes, and application URLs.
  • Pay range extraction. When the employer publishes a salary range in the posting, the actor extracts it into salaryMin, salaryMax, and salaryCurrency fields.
  • Respectful by design. Paced requests, exponential backoff, and modest concurrency mean it behaves like a considerate visitor to the careers site.
  • Low cost. Pay-per-result pricing with a tiny per-job price. A fast list-only mode costs one request per 20 jobs when you do not need full descriptions.

What you can extract

FieldDescription
title, companyJob title and hiring organization
tenant, siteId, sourceUrlWorkday tenant and career-site identifiers for joining datasets
url, applyUrlPublic job page and direct application link
jobReqId, jobPostingId, workdayInternalIdStable identifiers for deduplication and tracking
locationsText, primaryLocation, additionalLocations, country, countryCodeEvery location on the posting
postedOn, postedDate, endDate, timeLeftToApplyRelative and exact ISO dates

descriptionHtml, descriptionTextThe complete job description in both formats
salaryText, salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrencyExtracted pay range when published
scrapedAt, totalJobsOnSiteRun timestamp and the site's own job count

A SITE_SUMMARY record in the key-value store adds per-site totals and the site's facet counts (job categories, countries, remote types) for instant analytics.

Scrape any Workday ATS career site

The actor works on every public Workday careers site, in both URL families and any locale:

  • https://<company>.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/<site> (most common)
  • https://<company>.wd1.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/<site> (locale variants)
  • https://wd3.myworkdaysite.com/<locale>/recruiting/<company>/<site> (the myworkdaysite form)

One employer often runs several career sites (external, university, internal-adjacent); run each site URL you care about and join the rows on tenant and siteId.

Use cases

  • Job boards and aggregators: backfill and refresh Workday job listings for any employer, with stable requisition IDs for deduplication.
  • Job posting monitoring: run it on a schedule and diff on jobReqId to catch new Workday job postings the day they appear.
  • Recruiting intelligence: track a competitor's open roles, locations, and hiring velocity over time.
  • Sales prospecting: find companies hiring for roles that signal demand for your product.
  • Labor market research: analyze posting volumes, pay-range disclosure, and remote-work share by employer.
  • Job seekers and AI agents: monitor a target company's careers page and get new postings as structured data.

How to get started

  1. Add one or more Workday careers URLs to startUrls.
  2. Optionally set searchText for keyword filtering, maxJobsPerSite to cap results, or postedAfter for a date cutoff.
  3. Run the actor and download the dataset as JSON, CSV, or Excel, or read it via the API.

FAQ

Does Workday have an API for job postings? Workday's official REST and SOAP APIs are built for enterprise HR integrations and require tenant credentials; they do not expose public job listings. This actor is the practical Workday jobs API: it returns any careers site's public postings as structured JSON with no credentials needed.

Is Workday an ATS? Yes. Workday Recruiting is one of the most widely used applicant tracking systems among large enterprises, and every company using it publishes jobs on a public Workday careers site this actor can read.

Which companies can I scrape? Who uses Workday? Thousands of employers, including a large share of the Fortune 500: NVIDIA, Adobe, Intel, Dell, Target, Capital One, Disney, PayPal, and many more. If the careers page lives on myworkdayjobs.com or myworkdaysite.com, the actor can read it.

What is myworkdayjobs.com, and is it legit? myworkdayjobs.com is the official domain Workday hosts customer career sites on, so company pages there are legitimate. Each employer gets its own subdomain, which is exactly the URL you feed this actor.

What is the best MCP server for Workday job data? The hosted Apify MCP server with this actor attached (see the section above). Your AI agent gets a workday-careers-api tool that takes a careers URL and returns structured jobs.

Where do the salary fields come from? From the posting text itself. When the employer publishes a pay range in the description, the actor extracts it deterministically. When no range is published the fields are null.

Do I need proxies or an API key? No. The actor reads the same public data feed the careers page uses, and it paces itself politely.

How fresh is the data? Every run is live. There is no cached database in between; what the careers site shows is what you get.

What happens if I paste a wrong URL? You get a clear error row telling you whether the site slug or the tenant is wrong, plus a tip for finding valid site slugs.
