Instahyre Jobs Scraper

💼 What is Instahyre Jobs Scraper?

Instahyre Jobs Scraper extracts tech job listings from Instahyre, the Indian hiring platform: job title, company, skills, locations, remote or not, company size, founding year and badges, and on request the full job description, experience asked, posting date, recruiter name and title, agency or direct posting, and the company card: website, LinkedIn and social pages, tech stack, benefits and Glassdoor rating. It works as an Instahyre API alternative: run it on a schedule, call it from your code, or plug it into Make, Zapier or n8n.

Type a skill or job title (python) and a city (Bangalore), or paste any Instahyre job list, company page or job URL, click Start, and download the jobs in JSON, CSV or Excel. No Instahyre account, nothing to set up. From the results list it is fast: 100 jobs in about 12 seconds, 2,000 jobs in about 3 minutes, and the whole site (about 12,800 jobs) can be read in one run.

📋 What data can you extract from Instahyre?

One item per job, 71 fields:

Category	What you get
🏷️ Job	title, link, Instahyre job id; with details, still open or closed — Python Developer
🏢 Company	name, logo, Instahyre company id, tagline, short presentation, founding year, size band, diversity and featured employer badges — TopDoc, 0 - 10 employees
📍 Location	cities as listed, every city of the job, work from home, relocation accepted; with details, state and country — Bangalore, Karnataka
🧰 Skills and role	skills asked; with details, job category and job functions — Python, FastAPI, Backend Development
🎓 Experience and type	years asked (min, max) and as shown, full time or internship; for internships, the duration and the stipend — 4-8 Years, Rs. 10,000 per month
🕒 Date	posting date — 2026-10-21
📝 Description	full job description as text and HTML
👤 Recruiter	name, job title and photo of the recruiter who posted the job, the company they work for, posted by an agency or by the employer itself
🏬 Company card	Instahyre company page, website, LinkedIn, Facebook, X and Instagram pages, industries, tech stack, headquarters, long presentation, benefits, why join, interview process, office photos, open jobs count, Glassdoor overall rating and sub-ratings
✉️ Company contacts (option)	email addresses, kind of the first one (role, generic or personal), the page it was found on, phone numbers and social profiles found on the company's own website
🔎 Search	the skill, location and search URL that found the job

Every field, with an example, is listed in the Output section below.

The fields marked Detail in that list (description, experience asked, posting date, recruiter, company card…) are filled when Extract details is on; the company card's fields are filled too with enrichEmails alone, which reads that card once per company. It is off by default: the results list alone already gives title, company, size, badges, skills, cities and remote. Instahyre publishes no salary: only internships show a stipend (the stipend… fields).

✅ Why use Instahyre Jobs Scraper?

• 📈 All of Instahyre in one run: one Instahyre search reaches at most 9,975 jobs; bigger searches are split automatically (by company size, then experience level, then job type), each job returned once.
• 📍 A real search by city: Bangalore, Delhi / NCR, Work From Home… and usual spellings (Bengaluru, Gurugram) are converted; an unknown city stops the run with a clear message instead of returning all of India.
• 🎯 Every Instahyre filter, by name: job function, job category, industry, company, company size, job type, years of experience, seniority level, remote only. Pick Backend Development or type Amazon, no id to look up.
• 🧹 More filters than Instahyre itself: posting date range, keywords to include (any or all) or exclude, company name contains or excluded, experience asked, minimum Glassdoor rating, diversity or featured employers only, no agency postings, a cap per company.
• 👤 Recruiter and agency: the recruiter's name, title and photo, and whether an agency posted the job for the hiring company.
• 🏬 Company profile on every row, and with details the full company card: website, social pages, tech stack, benefits, rating, open jobs.
• ✉️ Company emails and phones (option): read on the company's own website, charged only for the companies where an email is found.
• 🔔 Monitoring built in: tick Only new jobs, schedule the Actor, and each run returns (and charges) only the jobs it has never delivered before.
• 📊 Market statistics, free (option): one sheet per search with Instahyre's own counts, per-company figures, and the changes since the previous run.
• 🔌 API, scheduling, integrations (Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets…) and JSON/CSV/Excel export via the Apify platform.

🚀 How to scrape Instahyre

1. Create a free Apify account.
2. Open Instahyre Jobs Scraper, type a Skill or job title (e.g. python) and a Location (e.g. Bangalore), and set the Instahyre filters you want.
3. Or paste your own Instahyre URLs into Start URLs (a job list such as /python-jobs-in-bangalore/, a search page with its filters, a company page, or single job pages), or job ids into Job ids.
4. Set Max jobs (100 by default, 0 = no limit) — and Max jobs per search when you run several searches — then click Start.
5. Download the dataset in JSON, CSV, Excel or via API.

💰 How much does it cost to scrape Instahyre?

This Actor uses pay per event pricing: you pay for the jobs you get, and the exact prices for your Apify plan are shown in the Pricing tab. Platform usage (compute, proxy) is included.

• result: each job saved from the results list.
• result-with-details: each job saved with its details (Extract details on) — one price for the job, details included, not on top of result.
• email-enriched (option, off by default): once per company and per run where Email from the company website finds an email address, on top of the jobs' price; the phone numbers and social links found on the same pages come with it, and a company where no email is found costs nothing.
• Market statistics (option): free.
• A small fee per run start.
• Filters Instahyre does not offer are applied by the Actor on every job it reads: a job you keep costs its normal price, a job a filter drops costs only a small filter fee (filter-check, or detail-filter-check when the filter needs the job's details) — filtering never costs more than taking everything. The Instahyre filters of the form are applied by Instahyre itself and cost nothing.

💡 Tips

How to get more results

Leave Skill or job title and Location empty and set Max jobs to 0: the run reads every job of Instahyre. A search above the 9,975 jobs one Instahyre search reaches is split automatically, by company size, then experience level, then job type, and every job is returned once.

How to reduce costs

Leave Extract details off when the results list is enough (title, company, skills, cities, remote). Prefer the Instahyre filters of the form (job function, company size, seniority…) to the Actor's own filters: Instahyre applies them before anything is read, at no cost. Cap each search with Max jobs per search.

Several searches in one run

Every skill of Skill or job title and More skills or titles is searched in every city of Location and More locations, up to 500 per run: 3 skills × 4 cities = 12 searches. A job found by several searches is saved once.

Monitoring: only the new jobs

Tick Only new jobs (onlyNew) and schedule the Actor. The first run returns everything; each later run skips the jobs already delivered: they are not saved, not charged and, for the jobs found by a search, their pages are not even opened. The memory lives in a named key-value store of your account (instahyre-jobs-scraper-seen, up to 150,000 jobs per key) and is only updated with jobs that really reached the dataset, so a failed run never hides anything. Give each schedule its own stateKey (two schedules sharing a key would hide each other's jobs), and tick resetState once to start over.

Filter by posting date

postedAfter and postedBefore take a date (2026-09-01, the whole day is included, site time zone) or a period before now (7 days, 2 weeks, 1 month; via the API also a full ISO date-time). They need Extract details: Instahyre gives the date on the job page only, so every job of the search is opened to read it. Filtered-out jobs are not saved and do not count in maxItems (each job dropped costs the filter fee, see Pricing); the run summary tells how many were filtered.

Track companies with market statistics

Tick Add market statistics (free): the MARKET_STATS record of the run's key-value store gets one sheet per search, with Instahyre's own counts for the whole search (total jobs, company sizes, full time and internships, top functions, industries, companies, cities) and, on the jobs read, per company: jobs, cities, skills, remote share. With the same Memory key, each sheet also gives the changes since the previous run: companies new or gone, jobs added or gone per company. Combine it with Companies (exact names) to follow a list of employers.

🔌 Integrations and API

Call the Actor via the Apify API, the JavaScript or Python clients, or connect it with integrations and webhooks (Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets, Slack, Airtable…). The dataset can be fetched as JSON or CSV from any tool.

🤖 Use with AI agents (MCP)

AI agents (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor…) can find and run this Actor through the Apify MCP server, billed to their Apify account like any run. It returns one item per Instahyre job. Actor id: nice_dev/instahyre-jobs-scraper; MCP server with this Actor only: https://mcp.apify.com/?tools=fetch-actor-details,nice_dev/instahyre-jobs-scraper.

Smallest input, for a cheap first call:

{
    "query": "python",
    "maxItems": 10
}

Key output fields: url, title, companyName, skills, locations, isRemote, publishedAt and description (with extractDetails).

Cost: pay per job (result, or result-with-details with extractDetails) plus a small fee per run start, see the pricing section above. Cap each call with maxItems and, through the API, with the run option maxTotalChargeUsd.

❓ FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Instahyre?

The Actor only reads what Instahyre shows publicly to any anonymous visitor. It logs in to nothing. Results can contain personal data — the name, title and photo a recruiter publishes on a job — which is protected by laws such as the GDPR and India's Digital Personal Data Protection Act: do not store it without a legitimate reason. You are responsible for using the data in compliance with Instahyre's Terms of Use and applicable law. This Actor is not affiliated with Instahyre.

Does it give the recruiter's email or phone number?

No: Instahyre publishes no email or phone number for its recruiters or companies. The option Email from the company website looks for the company's emails, phones and social links on the company's own website, found from its Instahyre card.

Does it need a login or a proxy?

No login. The proxy is included in the price: leave the default setting (the residential proxy is not available); without a proxy a large run is much slower. A request the site turns away is retried at once on a new proxy session, up to 10 times on top of the retries (without a proxy, after a pause of 5 seconds, doubled at each retry up to 150 seconds). Instahyre also limits how many jobs one address may open in an hour and in a day: without a proxy, the run waits up to 2 minutes when the site asks; if the site turns the address away for longer, the run stops at once and says for how long. The jobs already saved stay in the dataset (you pay for those only); run it again with the proxy, or later; a resurrected run goes on where it stopped.

Is the data safe to open in Excel or to show on a web page?

Titles, descriptions and company texts are the employers' own words, copied as they are. A text can begin with -, +, = or @: Excel and Google Sheets may read such a cell of a CSV file as a formula or as a number. The Actor leaves the text as it is, so that the JSON and the API give the real value: when you open a CSV, import these columns as text. Every link, logo and photo field holds an http(s) URL or null. descriptionHtml is the employer's HTML with its scripts removed and nothing else cleaned: on a web page, sanitize it, and escape every other field like any text written by a stranger.

Known limitations

• Instahyre publishes no salary: no salary field is given (internships only: their stipend, when the employer shows it).
• The posting date, description, experience asked, recruiter and company card come from each job's own pages: they are null / empty when extractDetails is off (the company card is still read with enrichEmails), and the date filters and the experience, agency and rating filters need it. If a company card cannot be read, the job still comes out with its own details, without its company columns.
• Instahyre sorts its results by relevance only: there is no "newest first", so a date filter reads every job of the search.
• companyOverallRating and companyRatings are null for the companies that show no Glassdoor rating on Instahyre.
• onlyNew remembers job ids, not their content: a job edited since it was delivered is not returned again.
• Two runs sharing the same stateKey at the same time may both return the same new job.

A run that reaches its timeout stops itself about 45 seconds before it: no new page is asked, what it read is saved and, with onlyNew, remembered, and the run ends Succeeded with "Stopped before the run's timeout". Resurrect it to go on from there, or give the next run a longer timeout (Run options).

A run the platform stops without warning (out of memory)

• Resurrect it: it goes on from where it stood at most a minute before the stop. What it had read since is read again, and the jobs already saved are skipped: none is delivered or charged twice, and maxItems still counts them.
• With onlyNew, the memory is saved after each write (at most once every 2 seconds): resurrect the stopped run and the jobs it had saved meanwhile join the memory; leave it stopped for good, and the next run may return the jobs of its last 2 seconds once more.

Something doesn't work?

The last line of the log counts the jobs saved, filtered out and no longer on Instahyre (removed while the run was reading them), and the requests that failed after every retry. Those requests and the removed jobs are listed, with the reason, in the FAILED_REQUESTS record of the run's key-value store. A run that saved nothing and had failed requests fails, and its last message gives the cause. A city Instahyre does not know stops the run before it starts, with a clear message; a company name it does not know ends its searches at once, with a message naming it.

If Instahyre changes its pages, you are told instead of paying for blank rows. A results page that counts jobs but gives none the Actor can read is an error (listed in FAILED_REQUESTS), never a quiet "No jobs found". If the first 20 jobs read all lack their title or company name — or, with extractDetails, their posting date, description, experience range or recruiter's company — the run saves nothing more, stops and fails, and its last message names the missing field: at most those first jobs are charged. A job that postedAfter / postedBefore drops because it has no date at all counts among those 20. A run of fewer jobs (a scheduled onlyNew run that finds a few new ones, a small Max jobs) is checked at its end, from 5 jobs: its jobs are already saved, and the run fails with the missing field instead of ending green.

🛟 Support

Open an issue in the Issues tab with a link to your run: the run log and the FAILED_REQUESTS record of the key-value store show exactly which URLs failed and why.
