The Muse Jobs Scraper – Scrape themuse.com Job Listings

Extract job postings from The Muse, a US job board known for quality professional roles at established companies. This The Muse scraper turns the live board into a clean, structured dataset you can filter and export to CSV, JSON or Excel — no login and no API key required.

Search by keyword, filter by category, seniority level and location, and let the actor paginate automatically through the full result set.

What you get

Every job is returned as a flat record:

• title – the job title.
• company – the hiring company name.
• categories – job categories such as Engineering, Data Science, Marketing, Sales, Design.
• levels – seniority level(s): Entry Level, Mid Level, Senior Level, Management.
• locations – advertised location(s), including "Remote".
• jobType – the employment type.
• url – direct link to the original The Muse listing / apply page.
• publishedAt – when the job was published.

Results stream to the Apify dataset and download as CSV, JSON, JSONL, Excel or XML, or pull them through the Apify API.

Use cases

• Recruiting & sourcing leads – find companies actively hiring in your category and seniority band, and use the data for outreach.
• Job-market research – measure hiring volume and in-demand roles by category, level and location.
• Power a job aggregator or board – ingest fresh, structured The Muse listings into your own site or app.
