## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
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.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## 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.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## Job Postings API: Company Career Site Jobs

Get 1.2M active job postings straight from 59,000+ companies' own career sites and ATS platforms, in 70 countries. 99.9% of apply links go to the employer, not to a job board, and about 18,000 new jobs are added each day while dead jobs are removed.

No login, no cookies, and no company list to maintain: set a country or a category, or run it with no filters for the newest jobs.

### What you get

One dataset row per job, parsed into one schema no matter which ATS the employer uses:

| Field | What it holds |
|-------|---------------|
| `title`, `company_name`, `company_domain`, `company_logo_url` | The role and the hiring company |
| `ats_name` | Where the job is published: Workday, Oracle Cloud HCM, SmartRecruiters, Greenhouse, Lever, Workable, Ashby, Breezy, Teamtailor, Rippling, and more, or `company site` |
| `apply_link` | The employer's own apply page |
| `description`, `excerpt` | Clean HTML description and a short plain-text summary |
| `primary_country_code`, `location`, `remote_status`, `is_global` | Country, city, and remote / hybrid / on-site |
| `category`, `commitment`, `experiences`, `requirements`, `tags` | Category, full-time or contract, seniority, requirements, skills |
| `salary_min_annual_usd`, `salary_max_annual_usd` | Salary converted to annual USD when the employer states it (about half of US jobs) |
| `published_at`, `expires_at` | When we first saw the job and when it leaves the feed unless it is confirmed live again |

### Why this data

- **Direct from employers.** Jobs come from company career sites and the ATS platforms they run on. 0.08% of apply links point to an aggregator.
- **Fresh and pruned.** About 18,000 new jobs a day. About 14,000 dead jobs a day leave the feed when they disappear from the employer's ATS.
- **Broad.** 1.2M active jobs from 59,000+ companies in 70 countries. The US is the largest market, followed by India, the UK, Canada, France, and Germany.

### How to use

1. Keep **Maximum jobs** at the prefilled `100` for a first run.
2. Optionally set **Countries** (ISO-2 codes), **Remote status**, or **Category**.
3. Run the Actor. Results land in the default dataset (Overview view).
4. For a daily sync, set **Posted after** to your last run time and **Sort order** to *Oldest first*, then schedule the Actor.
5. Send the dataset anywhere with Apify integrations (webhooks, Zapier, Make, n8n) or the Apify API.

### Input

All fields are optional.

- **Countries**: ISO-2 codes (`US`, `GB`, `DE`, ...)
- **Remote status**: completely remote, hybrid, or on-site
- **Category**: Information Technology, Finance & Banking, Healthcare, and the other categories in the form
- **Posted after / before**: date window
- **Sort order**: *Newest first* (default) or *Oldest first* for incremental syncs
- **Maximum jobs**: hard cap per run; you pay only for jobs written to the dataset. If omitted, the Actor stops at 1000.
- **Worldwide-remote jobs only**: jobs open to applicants anywhere (these have no country, so leave Countries empty)
- **Visa sponsorship**: filter on the sponsorship statement in the posting (most postings do not state one)

### Output sample

Illustrative, not live inventory:

```json
{
    "id": 12345,
    "title": "Senior Backend Engineer",
    "company_name": "Acme Corp",
    "company_domain": "acme.com",
    "ats_name": "Greenhouse",
    "apply_link": "https://job-boards.greenhouse.io/acme/jobs/123",
    "primary_country_code": "US",
    "is_global": false,
    "location": { "name": "New York", "slug": "new-york" },
    "remote_status": { "name": "Hybrid", "slug": "hybrid" },
    "category": { "name": "Information Technology", "slug": "information-technology" },
    "salary_min_annual_usd": 140000,
    "salary_max_annual_usd": 180000,
    "excerpt": "Build and run the APIs behind Acme's payments platform...",
    "published_at": "2026-09-23T09:12:00+00:00",
    "expires_at": "2026-10-23T09:12:00+00:00"
}
```

### Pricing

$1 per 1,000 jobs (`job-retrieved` event, $0.001 each). No subscription and no minimum. Set a maximum cost per run and the Actor stops when it is reached.

Need millions of jobs a month? The direct [NeverApply Jobs API](https://neverapply.co/developers) is cheaper at volume and adds full-text search, single-job lookups, and an expired-jobs endpoint.

### Typical uses

- **Job boards and aggregators:** backfill and sync jobs by country or category.
- **Companies hiring:** find which companies are hiring for a category in a country and use `company_domain` for sales or recruiting outreach.
- **Labor-market research:** track new postings by country, category, seniority, and ATS.
- **AI agents:** give an agent live job listings with clean descriptions and direct apply links.

### FAQ

#### Does the Actor scrape sites when I run it?

No. It reads NeverApply's authenticated jobs feed. Scraping and parsing happen upstream, so a run of 1,000 jobs takes seconds.

#### How fresh is the data?

Each job is re-checked against the employer's ATS. A job that disappears from the ATS leaves the feed, and `expires_at` moves forward each time a job is confirmed live.

#### Are duplicates removed?

Not yet. About 3% of rows are the same posting listed on more than one of an employer's career sites, and we are removing these copies. Large employers also post the same title in the same city as separate requisitions; these are real openings and stay as separate rows.

# Actor input Schema

## `countries` (type: `array`):

ISO-2 country codes to include (e.g. <code>US</code>, <code>GB</code>, <code>DE</code>). Leave empty for all 70 countries.

## `remoteStatus` (type: `string`):

Workplace arrangement: completely remote, hybrid, or on-site.

## `category` (type: `string`):

Job category to filter by.

## `postedAfter` (type: `string`):

Only jobs added on or after this date. For incremental syncs, set this to your last run time and use Sort order = Oldest first.

## `postedBefore` (type: `string`):

Only jobs added on or before this date (ISO 8601).

## `sortOrder` (type: `string`):

Newest first returns the latest jobs. Oldest first walks forward from Posted after, which is the right order for incremental syncs.

## `maxJobs` (type: `integer`):

Stop after this many jobs. You pay only for jobs written to the dataset. The form prefills 100; if the field is omitted, the Actor stops at 1000.

## `isGlobal` (type: `boolean`):

Turn on to get only jobs open to applicants anywhere in the world. Off means no filter. Worldwide-remote jobs have no country, so leave Countries empty when this is on.

## `visaSponsorshipOffered` (type: `string`):

Filter on the visa sponsorship statement extracted from the posting. Most postings do not say, so this filter returns a small share of jobs.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "countries": [
    "US"
  ],
  "sortOrder": "newest",
  "maxJobs": 100
}
```

# Actor output Schema

## `jobs` (type: `string`):

Default dataset of job postings. The Overview view shows title, company, ATS, location, and apply link; Eligibility shows work authorization, clearance, and relocation fields.

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
