🎲 Dice.com Job Scraper

Extract US tech job listings from Dice.com — job titles, companies, salaries, locations, skills, workplace type, employment type, and full job descriptions — as clean, structured JSON, ready for market research, recruitment, or job-search apps.

Dice is where America's tech roles get posted — and this actor turns that firehose into a tidy dataset you can actually use.

Tell it what you're hunting for (a role, a skill, a city, a type of work) and it returns every matching opening with the details filled in: who's hiring, what they pay, where the job sits, whether it's remote, and the full job description — all without a login, a browser, or a Dice account.

---

What You Get

Complete job records, not just titles and links. Every result carries:

• 🏢 Company — name, employer type (direct hire vs. recruiter), profile link, and logo
• 💰 Salary — raw text plus parsed min/max, currency, and pay period
• 📍 Location — city, state, region, and postal code, broken out into separate fields
• 🏠 Workplace — remote, hybrid, or on-site, plus an isRemote flag
• 📝 Description — full text in three formats: plain, HTML, and Markdown
• 🧩 Skills — the required-skills list pulled from each posting
• 📅 Dates — posted, last-modified, and the posting's expiry date
• 🔗 Links — direct job URL and company profile URL

No login. No browser. No API key. The actor reads the same public pages Google crawls, so there's nothing to authenticate and nothing to get blocked on.

Search Any Way You Need

Filter your results down to exactly the roles that matter:

Filter	Options
Keyword	Any role, skill, or title — "Python Developer", "Kubernetes", "DevOps"
Location	City + state, or "Remote"
Radius	Miles from the location
Posted	Last 1, 3, or 7 days
Employment type	Full-time, Part-time, Contract, Third Party
Employer type	Direct Hire, Recruiter, Other
Workplace	Remote, Hybrid, On-site
Easy Apply	Only Easy-Apply listings
Sponsorship	Only roles willing to sponsor visas

Run multiple searches at once, or use location fan-out to sweep the same role across every major city in a single run.

Who It's Built For

• Recruiters & staffing firms — watch who's hiring in real time and build candidate-ready pipelines
• Job boards & aggregators — keep a niche board stocked with fresh Dice listings
• Market researchers — track salary trends, skill demand, and hiring velocity by city or technology
• Sales teams — spot companies actively scaling their engineering orgs
• Job seekers — filter remote and contract roles in one pass, export to CSV, done

Input

{
  "searches": [
    {
      "q": "Software Developer",
      "location": "New York, NY",
      "employmentTypes": ["FULLTIME"],
      "workplaceTypes": ["Remote"],
      "postedDate": "SEVEN",
      "easyApply": true,
      "willingToSponsor": true
    }
  ],
  "locations": ["New York, NY", "Austin, TX", "Remote"],
  "fetchDetails": true,
  "maxResults": 1000,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true }
}

Parameter	What it does
searches	One or more keyword/location searches, each with its own filters
locations	Fan-out — repeat every search once per city for wider coverage
postedDateWindows	Fan-out — split results by recency to bypass the per-query result cap
startUrls	Paste raw Dice listing or job-detail URLs to scrape directly
fetchDetails	Pull the full description, skills, and expiry from each job page
maxResults	Cap total output (0 = up to 5000)
maxResultsPerSearch	Cap each individual search
pageSize / maxPages	Pagination controls (Dice limits a query to ~25 pages)
delayMs / maxRetries	Politeness and resilience tuning
resume	Continue a previous run from where it stopped
respectRobots	Stay within Dice's allowed crawl paths (on by default)
proxyConfiguration	Datacenter or residential Apify proxy

Tip: a single Dice query returns roughly 500 results before its internal page cap. Use locations and postedDateWindows fan-out to slice one broad search into many smaller ones and pull thousands of unique jobs.

Answers to Common Questions

Do I need a Dice account? No. Everything is collected from Dice's public pages — nothing to sign in to.

Can it find remote-only roles? Yes — filter by workplaceTypes: ["Remote"], or check the isRemote flag on results.

Can it find visa-sponsoring employers? Yes. willingToSponsor: true returns only roles where the employer sponsors.

Does it grab contract work? Yes — full-time, part-time, contract, and third-party listings are all supported.

How much of the description do I get? The whole thing — plain text, HTML, and Markdown — plus a parsed skills list.

Does it break when Dice updates their site? It recovers Dice's embedded job data directly and falls back to HTML parsing, so markup changes degrade gracefully rather than erroring out.

How do I export the results? From the Apify dataset tab, export as JSON, CSV, Excel, XML, RSS, or HTML — or pull it via the API.

Is it respectful of the site? Yes — it crawls Dice's robots-allowed paths, respects a global rate limit, rotates proxies on blocks, and pauses cleanly when asked.

Reliability

• Proxy rotation — on a block or challenge, it grabs a fresh IP and retries
• Adaptive backoff — retries grow exponentially with longer waits on rate limits
• Challenge detection — bot-check pages are caught and never written as data
• Deduplication — the same job is never written twice, even across overlapping searches
• Checkpoint & resume — a killed run picks up where it left off with resume: true

---

Notes & Limits

• A single Dice query caps at roughly 500 results (~25 pages) — fan-out is the way to go wider.
• Sponsorship is available as a search filter, not as a per-job field on Dice's public pages.
• Dice doesn't expose geo coordinates or company-size data on its server-rendered pages.
