🚀 Performance Tips

Optimize your runs for speed, cost, and reliability with these best practices:

💰 Cost Optimization

• Start Small: Test with max_results: 10 and a single search term before scaling up.
• Monitor Costs: Check the "Usage" tab in Apify Console for real-time cost tracking. Each job costs $0.00296.
• Narrow Search: Use specific job titles instead of broad keywords to reduce irrelevant results.

⚡ Speed Optimization

• Fewer Keywords: Each search term multiplies by platforms. 3 keywords × 4 platforms = 12 parallel searches.
• Regional Focus: Specify a location to reduce results and speed up processing.
• Recent Posts: Use shorter posted_since periods (e.g., "7 days") for faster results.

🛡️ Reliability Best Practices

• Valid Country: Ensure the country name matches exactly (e.g., "United States", not "USA").
• Monitor Progress: Use Apify Console's live log to track scraping progress across platforms.
• Partial Results: If a platform fails, results from other platforms are still saved.

📊 Data Quality Tips

• Salary Data: Not all jobs include salary info. Filter by salary_minimum field to get jobs with disclosed salaries.
• Fresh Data: Job postings change rapidly. Schedule daily runs for time-sensitive applications.
• Remote Jobs: Filter by is_remote: true or check work_from_home field for remote opportunities.

❓ FAQ

How to export job listings to Excel?

After the run completes, go to the Output tab in the Apify Console. Click the Export button and select Excel format. You will receive a neatly formatted spreadsheet with all job listings ready for analysis.

Which job platforms are supported?

We support LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, ZipRecruiter (US/Canada), Naukri (India), and Bayt (Middle East). Platform selection is automatic based on your chosen country.

How do I search for remote jobs only?

Currently, the actor fetches all matching jobs. Filter the results by checking the is_remote field (boolean) or work_from_home field for remote/hybrid opportunities.

Why are some salary fields empty?

Not all job postings include salary information. Approximately 30-40% of jobs disclose salary ranges. Use the salary_minimum field to filter jobs with disclosed compensation.

How long does a typical scrape take?

Runtime depends on the number of search terms, platforms, and max_results setting. A typical run with 2-3 keywords and 100 results per platform completes in 2-5 minutes.

Why do some job titles not match my search keywords?

This is expected behavior. Each platform (LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, etc.) uses its own search algorithm that considers job relevance, not just exact keyword matching. Platforms may return jobs based on:

• Related job titles and synonyms (e.g., "Developer" may return "Engineer" roles)
• Skills mentioned in job descriptions
• Industry and category associations
• Location-based relevance

This is the same behavior you would see when searching directly on these platforms.

⚖️ Legal & Compliance

This actor scrapes publicly available job postings only. It does not log in, access private data, or collect personal information of job seekers. You are responsible for adhering to each platform's Terms of Service and applicable privacy laws (GDPR/CCPA).
