Indeed Jobs Scraper - Most Comprehensive

Scrape Indeed job listings from 62 countries, with up to ~190 fields per job: full descriptions, parsed salaries, skills and certifications as structured tags, complete company profiles, and apply links. Rich mode adds hiring signals that other Indeed scrapers do not collect: reposts, employer responsiveness, hires needed, required and preferred skills, and sponsored placements.

Search Indeed by keyword and location, or look up known jobs by job key. Starting at $0.04 per 1,000 jobs.

Use cases

Recruiting and staffing leads

Find companies that hire now, with their size, revenue, website, and hiring needs.

{
  "keyword": "title:(\"registered nurse\")",
  "location": "New York, NY",
  "country": "US",
  "sort": "date",
  "fromDays": "3",
  "maxItems": 100,
  "searchMode": "rich"
}

Use company.name, company.size, company.revenue, company.urls.website, company.socialLinks, signals.numHires, and apply.url.

Job market research

Compare salaries, skills, benefits, and requirements by role and region.

{
  "keyword": "title:(\"data analyst\")",
  "location": "New York, NY",
  "country": "US",
  "maxItems": 500
}

Use salary.min, salary.max, salary.period, classification.skills, benefits, requirements.educationLevel, and requirements.experienceLevel.

Hiring and labor market analytics

Track who hires, how fast they respond, which roles they repost, and how many people they need. Run the same input on an Apify schedule, and compare the results over time.

{
  "keyword": "title:(\"software engineer\") -intern",
  "location": "Seattle, WA",
  "country": "US",
  "sort": "date",
  "fromDays": "7",
  "jobType": "fulltime",
  "maxItems": 100,
  "searchMode": "rich"
}

Use signals.isRepost, signals.isLatestPost, signals.numHires, signals.employerResponsive, signals.hiringInsights, and dates.onIndeed. Rich results include sponsored jobs. To count only organic jobs, see How rich mode works.

Recruitment advertising intelligence

See which employers pay to promote jobs, for which searches, at which result positions, and how often.

{
  "keyword": "nurse",
  "location": "New York, NY",
  "country": "US",
  "maxItems": 100,
  "searchMode": "rich"
}

Keep jobs where signals.isSponsored is true. Use signals.sponsoredEmployerKey, meta.scrapingInfo.page, meta.scrapingInfo.index, and company.brandingReasons. The placements record lists every card that Indeed showed, also repeated placements of the same job.

Job boards and aggregators

Publish fresh listings with full descriptions, parsed salaries, addresses, and coordinates.

{
  "keyword": "software engineer",
  "location": "United States",
  "country": "US",
  "sort": "date",
  "fromDays": "1",
  "maxItems": 0
}

Use title.text, description.html, salary.text, location, urls.apply, and dates.onIndeed.

Job monitoring

Check whether known jobs are still open, with a lookup by job key. Use signals.isExpired.

Choose how to find jobs

Starting point	Input	Use it for
A job title, skill, or company, and a place	keyword and location	Find jobs in an area
Exact titles or companies	keyword with title:, company:, or, and -	Match only the jobs you mean
Known Indeed jobs	jobKeys	Get full data for active and expired jobs

If you provide jobKeys, the Actor looks up those jobs. It then ignores the search fields, the filters, and maxItems.

Choose a data depth

Mode	Fields	Results per search	Best for
basic (default)	~165	Up to 1,000 or more	Large searches, fastest
detailed	~170	Up to 1,000 or more	Hiring insights at full search size
rich	~190	Up to about 600, about half of them sponsored	The most data per job, and sponsored placements

Rich mode returns jobs in the order that Indeed shows them, with the sponsored placements. See How rich mode works.

Every job includes (basic):

• Job: title, normalized title, full description as text and HTML, snippet, reference number
• Links: Indeed job URL, employer job URL, apply URL
• Classification: job types, occupations, primary occupation, skills, languages, and all Indeed attributes as key and label pairs
• Salary: salary text, parsed minimum, maximum, or exact amount, currency, period, and extras such as bonuses
• Benefits: benefit labels, such as health insurance, 401(k), and paid time off
• Work arrangement: remote flag, shifts, schedules, travel
• Location: full address, city, state, county, postal code, country, latitude, and longitude
• Company: name, industry, size, revenue, descriptions, website, logos, ratings and review counts, CEO, social links, and response rate
• Apply: Easy Apply flag, apply scopes
• Dates: posted date, date on Indeed, expiry date, age text
• Signals: expired, urgent hire, and high-volume hiring flags, and the sponsoring employer's ID
• Requirements: experience level, education level, certifications, and other labeled requirements
• Metadata: job source, language, locale, search keyword, search location, result page and position

Detailed adds, when Indeed supplies them:

• Hiring insights: candidates needed and hiring-event flag
• Employer-provided attributes and occupations
• Required documents, remote work type, and job photos

Rich adds everything in detailed, plus:

• Hiring signals: repost and newest-post flags, employer responsiveness, days since the employer last reviewed applications, hires needed, new-job flag, and hiring tags such as fair-chance hiring
• Requirements: skills and qualifications, each marked required or preferred, and physical requirements
• Working hours: minimum and maximum hours for each period
• Apply: whether Indeed Apply needs a resume
• Salary: Indeed's own salary parse and salary text
• Company: employer branding reasons, featured-employer flag, and parent company
• Locations: number of locations for the same posting
• Search placement: sponsored flag, and a placements record with every card that Indeed showed
• More benefits, job types, shifts, and schedules

Search for jobs

Start with a keyword and a location:

{
  "keyword": "registered nurse",
  "location": "New York, NY"
}

The Actor searches the US site and saves up to 20 jobs. Set maxItems to set an upper limit. Indeed can return fewer jobs. Use 0 to remove the Actor limit. Set searchMode to detailed or rich for more fields. See Choose a data depth.

Match titles and companies

Plain keywords use broad matching and can include related roles. Use Indeed search expressions when title or company matching is important.

Expression	Meaning
"data engineer"	Exact phrase in the posting.
title:(data engineer)	Both words in the title.
title:("data engineer")	Exact phrase in the title.
title:("data engineer" or "data scientist")	Either phrase in the title.
nurse -travel	Include nurse and exclude travel.
company:Google	Jobs for the specified company expression.

Indeed supports and, or, not, exclusions, quotes, and parentheses. You can combine them:

{
  "keyword": "title:(\"data engineer\" or \"data scientist\") -intern",
  "location": "United States"
}

Filter by date, job type, and remote work

{
  "keyword": "software engineer",
  "location": "Seattle, WA",
  "fromDays": "7",
  "jobType": "fulltime",
  "remote": "hybrid",
  "searchMode": "rich"
}

fromDays keeps the jobs that reached Indeed in the last 1, 3, 7, or 14 days. It filters on dates.onIndeed.

In basic and detailed mode, fromDays replaces jobType and remote. Rich mode applies all three filters.

A hybrid search can also return fully remote jobs, because Indeed can give one job both labels. Indeed's matching is broad, so a job can also be missing the requested job type or remote label. When the exact value matters, check classification.jobType, workArrangement.isRemote, and workArrangement.locationType.

Sort by date

Set sort to date to get the newest jobs first in basic and detailed mode. In rich mode, the results keep Indeed's card order, and sponsored jobs keep their places.

Search within a radius

{
  "keyword": "software engineer",
  "location": "10001",
  "radius": "25",
  "radiusUnit": "miles",
  "maxItems": 50
}

The default radius is 35 miles. Set radiusUnit to km for kilometers.

Search another country

{
  "keyword": "Buchhalter",
  "location": "Berlin",
  "country": "DE",
  "radius": "50",
  "radiusUnit": "km"
}

country selects the Indeed site. The code for the United Kingdom is UK. See the input reference for all codes.

Look up known jobs

Use the job key (the jk value in an Indeed job URL), or the whole job URL:

{
  "jobKeys": ["5e5dafc2a80c214d"],
  "country": "US"
}

• Lookups return full job data for active and expired jobs. signals.isExpired is true when Indeed has closed the listing.
• Use the country of the Indeed site that shows the job.
• A lookup ignores the search fields, the filters, and maxItems. It returns a repeated key once and skips unknown keys.
• basic returns the basic fields. detailed and rich add the detailed fields. A lookup cannot return the other rich fields. Use a rich search to get them.

How rich mode works

Rich mode returns the jobs in the order that Indeed shows them in its search results. meta.scrapingInfo.page and meta.scrapingInfo.index give the position of each job.

Sponsored placements. Indeed selects them. They can fall outside the keyword, the title expression, the location, and the filters. They can be more than half of the results, and a search that matches no jobs can still return them. They count toward maxItems. Only a rich search reports sponsored placements: use signals.isSponsored from rich searches only.

Sponsoring employer. signals.sponsoredEmployerKey is Indeed's ID for the employer that sponsors the job. It stays on the job in every search and in lookups, also when the job appears as an organic result.

Repeated jobs. Indeed often shows the same job on several pages, for example sponsored on page 1 and organic on page 8. The dataset keeps the job once, at its first card, and signals.isSponsored describes that card. The placements record lists every card.

Organic jobs only. Keep the jobs where signals.isSponsored is false. This filter also removes the few jobs that Indeed showed first as sponsored and later as organic. For the exact organic set, keep the jobs that have a placements row with sponsored set to false.

Result range. Indeed limits how many search results it shows, and it repeats jobs across them. A broad rich search therefore gives about 600 unique jobs, and about half of them are sponsored.

No rich results. When a rich search finds no jobs, the Actor returns basic-mode jobs for the same search and logs a warning. These jobs have no rich fields, and the placements record has no rows.

Input

A search uses keyword, location, or both. A lookup uses jobKeys.

Output

Each Dataset item is one job. Every documented field is present in every job. When Indeed does not supply a value, the field is null, [], or {}. A rich search also saves a placements record.

Sample rich job

This redacted rich-mode job is from Visa in Bellevue, WA. Long arrays and maps keep a few items. Square brackets mark values removed from the documentation. It is not a saved Dataset item.

Placements record

A rich search saves the record PLACEMENTS in the run's default key-value store. The run's Output tab links to it. The record lists every card that Indeed showed for the saved jobs, in page order. A job has one row for each card, so a job that Indeed showed three times has three rows.

{
  "placements": [
    { "jobKey": "5e5dafc2a80c214d", "page": 1, "index": 0, "sponsored": true },
    { "jobKey": "5e5dafc2a80c214d", "page": 8, "index": 3, "sponsored": false }
  ]
}

Field	Type and contents
jobKey	string. The id of a job in the dataset.
page	number. 1-based search result page.
index	number. 0-based position on the page, including sponsored placements.
sponsored	boolean. Whether this card was a paid placement.

• The first row of a job matches its meta.scrapingInfo and signals.isSponsored.
• The rows end at the card that reached maxItems. A job that is not in the dataset has no rows.
• The record covers the search results that the run collected. A run that stops early keeps the rows of the jobs that it saved.
• Basic mode, detailed mode, and lookups do not save the record.

Search and field limits

How many jobs can I collect?

maxItems is an upper limit, not a required result count. Indeed can return fewer jobs. Set maxItems to 0 to remove the Actor limit. The run then ends when Indeed has no more results. A basic or detailed search returns up to 1,000 or more jobs. A rich search returns up to about 600, about half of them sponsored.

When you set a maximum cost per run, the run saves the jobs that this cost pays for and then ends as succeeded. A lookup then checks only the first job keys that the cost pays for. The run's status message tells you when this happens.

Why are some fields empty?

Indeed does not show all fields on every job. Some rich jobs do not have every rich field. In detailed mode, a job can have only the basic fields when extra detail is unavailable.

Can a job disappear after I collect it?

Yes. Indeed can change or remove listings at any time. Use a lookup to check whether a job is still open.
