# Dice Jobs Scraper (`moving_beacon-owner1/dice-jobs-scraper`) Actor Dice Jobs Scraper is an Apify Actor that extracts tech job listings from Dice.com using keywords and location filters. It includes options for employment type, workplace type (remote/hybrid/on-site), posting date range, sorting, pagination, and optional job enrichment. - **URL**: https://apify.com/moving\_beacon-owner1/dice-jobs-scraper.md - **Developed by:** [Jamshaid Arif](https://apify.com/moving_beacon-owner1) (community) - **Categories:** Automation, Developer tools, Jobs - **Stats:** 2 total users, 1 monthly users, 100.0% runs succeeded, NaN bookmarks - **User rating**: No ratings yet ## Pricing from $10.00 / 1,000 results This Actor is paid per event.

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases. In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours, and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store. In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server. Actors are written with capital "A". ## How to integrate an Actor? If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects. You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready. The best way to integrate Actors is as follows. In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md): ```bash npm install apify-client ``` In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md): ```bash pip install apify-client ``` In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): ````bash # MacOS / Linux curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash # Windows irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex ```bash In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md). If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md). For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## Dice Jobs Scraper (Apify Actor) Scrape tech job listings from [Dice.com](https://www.dice.com/) by keyword and location, with filters for employment type, workplace type (remote/on-site/hybrid), posted-date, radius, easy-apply, and sort. Optional detail-page enrichment pulls the full `JobPosting` schema for each hit. ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | |---|---|---|---| | `query` | string (required) | — | Job title, skill, or keyword | | `location` | string | — | City, state, or `Remote` | | `radius` | int (0–200) | — | Distance around `location` | | `radiusUnit` | enum | `mi` | `mi` or `km` | | `employmentTypes` | array | `[]` | `FULLTIME`, `PARTTIME`, `CONTRACTS`, `THIRD_PARTY` | | `workplaceTypes` | array | `[]` | `Remote`, `On-Site`, `Hybrid` | | `postedWithin` | enum | `any` | `any` / `1day` / `3days` / `7days` | | `easyApply` | bool | `false` | Dice's one-click Easy Apply only | | `sort` | enum | `relevance` | `relevance` / `date` | | `pageSize` | int (10–100) | `20` | Jobs per page | | `maxPages` | int (1–50) | `1` | Pages to fetch | | `includeDetails` | bool | `false` | Fetch each job's detail page | | `maxJobs` | int | `0` | Hard cap on items pushed | | `impersonate` | enum | `chrome124` | curl_cffi TLS profile | | `proxyConfiguration` | object | Apify Proxy | Proxy settings | #### Example input ```json { "query": "senior python", "location": "Austin, TX", "radius": 30, "employmentTypes": ["FULLTIME", "CONTRACTS"], "workplaceTypes": ["Remote", "Hybrid"], "postedWithin": "3days", "easyApply": true, "sort": "date", "maxPages": 5, "includeDetails": true, "maxJobs": 100 } ```` ### Output #### Search-only item ```json { "id": "a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890", "title": "Senior Python Engineer", "company": "Acme Tech", "location": "Austin, TX (Hybrid)", "salary": "$140,000-$170,000/yr", "posted": "2026-05-22T14:30:00Z", "employment": "Full-time", "remote": false, "easy_apply": true, "skills": ["Python", "Django", "PostgreSQL", "AWS"], "url": "https://www.dice.com/job-detail/a1b2c3d4-e5f6-7890-abcd-ef1234567890" } ``` #### With `includeDetails: true`, each item additionally carries ```json { "company_url": "https://www.acmetech.com/", "company_logo": "https://media.dice.com/.../logo.png", "employment_type": "FULL_TIME", "valid_through": "2026-06-22T23:59:59Z", "qualifications": "5+ years building Python web services...", "responsibilities": "Design and ship features across the stack...", "description": "Acme Tech is a Series-C startup building...\n\nResponsibilities:\n- ..." } ``` # Actor input Schema ## `query` (type: `string`): Job title, skill, or keyword to search for on Dice. ## `location` (type: `string`): City, state, or 'Remote'. Examples: 'Austin, TX', 'New York, NY', 'Remote', 'San Francisco Bay Area'. Leave blank for nationwide. ## `radius` (type: `integer`): Distance around the location, in the unit below. Ignored if location is blank or Remote. ## `radiusUnit` (type: `string`): Miles or kilometres. ## `employmentTypes` (type: `array`): Restrict to specific employment types. Leave empty to include all. ## `workplaceTypes` (type: `array`): Restrict to remote / on-site / hybrid. Valid values: Remote, On-Site, Hybrid. Leave empty for all. ## `postedWithin` (type: `string`): Filter by how recently the job was posted. ## `easyApply` (type: `boolean`): Only return jobs that support Dice's one-click Easy Apply. ## `sort` (type: `string`): Dice's own sort. ## `pageSize` (type: `integer`): Jobs per search page. Dice supports up to 100. ## `maxPages` (type: `integer`): How many search pages to fetch. ## `includeDetails` (type: `boolean`): If true, the actor visits each job page to extract the full JobPosting JSON-LD: description, skills, qualifications, salary breakdown, application URL, company info. Roughly multiplies runtime by N jobs. ## `maxJobs` (type: `integer`): Stop after this many jobs have been pushed. 0 = no cap. ## `impersonate` (type: `string`): curl\_cffi TLS / JA3 fingerprint. Dice tolerates datacenter IPs well; chrome124 is the safe default. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): Apify Proxy or your own. Dice works from clean datacenter IPs; default Apify proxy is fine. Switch to RESIDENTIAL only if you start hitting 403s on heavy multi-page runs. ## Actor input object example ```json { "query": "python developer", "location": "Remote", "radius": 30, "radiusUnit": "mi", "employmentTypes": [ "FULLTIME" ], "workplaceTypes": [ "Remote" ], "postedWithin": "7days", "easyApply": false, "sort": "date", "pageSize": 20, "maxPages": 2, "includeDetails": false, "maxJobs": 50, "impersonate": "chrome124", "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true } } ``` # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API.
