## What's an Apify Actor?

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.

# README

## SmartRecruiters Jobs Scraper

Extract **every job posting from any company that hires through SmartRecruiters** — in seconds, with clean, normalized, analysis-ready output. No API keys, no setup: paste a company's career-site URL (or its SmartRecruiters identifier) and run.

Thousands of enterprises — including Bosch, ServiceNow, Ubisoft, Experian, and Visa — publish their jobs on SmartRecruiters career sites (`careers.smartrecruiters.com/...` / `jobs.smartrecruiters.com/...`). This Actor turns those career pages into structured data.

### What you get

Unlike basic scrapers that dump the raw API response, every job is returned in a **normalized schema** designed to be combined with our other ATS scrapers:

- ✅ **Full job description** (plain text *and* HTML) — description, qualifications, benefits
- ✅ **Parsed salary** — min/max, currency, and pay period extracted from the job ad text (e.g. `$143,200 – $243,400`), not just the raw string
- ✅ **Structured location** — city, region, country code, and a reliable `remote` flag
- ✅ Department, function, employment type, experience level, posting language
- ✅ Direct **posting URL and apply URL** for every job
- ✅ **Multiple companies in one run**, automatic deduplication

### Use cases

- **Job boards & aggregators** — keep listings fresh without maintaining scraping infra
- **Recruiting & talent intelligence** — track who is hiring, where, and for what
- **Sales lead generation** — companies hiring for role X are buying tools for X
- **Salary benchmarking** — pay-range data straight from job ads
- **Market & competitor research** — hiring velocity as a growth signal
- **AI agents & LLM pipelines** — clean JSON that slots directly into RAG or agent tools

### Input

```json
{
    "companies": ["https://careers.smartrecruiters.com/BoschGroup", "ServiceNow"],
    "keyword": "engineer",
    "location": "Berlin",
    "postedAfter": "2026-06-01",
    "includeFullDescription": true,
    "maxJobsPerCompany": 500
}
````

| Field | Description |
| --- | --- |
| `companies` | Career-site URLs or SmartRecruiters company identifiers (one or more) |
| `keyword` | Optional full-text search (title + description) |
| `location` | Optional filter on city / region / country code / `remote` |
| `postedAfter` | Only jobs released on or after this date |
| `includeFullDescription` | Fetch full job ad + enable salary parsing (default `true`) |
| `maxJobsPerCompany` | Cap per company, `0` = unlimited |

### Output example

```json
{
    "id": "744000123456789",
    "source": "smartrecruiters",
    "title": "Senior Software Engineer",
    "company": { "identifier": "ServiceNow", "name": "ServiceNow" },
    "location": { "city": "San Diego", "region": "CA", "country": "US", "remote": false },
    "department": "Engineering",
    "employmentType": "Full-time",
    "experienceLevel": "Mid-Senior Level",
    "salary": { "min": 143200, "max": 243400, "currency": "USD", "period": null, "raw": "$143,200 - $243,400" },
    "postedAt": "2026-06-30T01:06:01.967Z",
    "postingUrl": "https://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/ServiceNow/744000123456789-senior-software-engineer",
    "applyUrl": "https://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/ServiceNow/744000123456789-senior-software-engineer?oga=true",
    "descriptionText": "Company Description\n\n...",
    "descriptionHtml": "<h2>Company Description</h2>..."
}
```

Download results as **JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML**, or fetch them via the [Apify API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2), scheduled runs, and webhooks.

### How to find a company's identifier

Open the company's careers page. If the URL looks like `https://careers.smartrecruiters.com/BoschGroup` or `https://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/BoschGroup/...`, the identifier is `BoschGroup`. You can paste the full URL as well — the Actor extracts the identifier automatically.

### FAQ

**Is scraping SmartRecruiters job postings legal?**
This Actor only collects publicly available job postings that companies intentionally publish to attract applicants. It collects no personal data.

**How fast is it?**
Hundreds of jobs per minute. A full scrape of a company with ~5,000 open positions typically finishes in a few minutes.

**A company returns 0 jobs — why?**
Either the identifier is wrong (check the careers-page URL) or the company no longer hires through SmartRecruiters.

**Need Workable, Recruitee, Personio, BambooHR, or another ATS?**

# Actor input Schema

## `companies` (type: `array`):

SmartRecruiters company identifiers (e.g. <code>smartrecruiters</code>, <code>Visa</code>) or full career-site URLs (e.g. <code>https://careers.smartrecruiters.com/Visa</code>, <code>https://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/Visa/...</code>). One entry per company.

## `keyword` (type: `string`):

Optional full-text search query applied on the SmartRecruiters side (job title and description), e.g. <code>engineer</code>.

## `location` (type: `string`):

Optional case-insensitive filter matched against city, region, and country of each posting, e.g. <code>Berlin</code>, <code>us</code>, <code>remote</code>.

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

Only include jobs released on or after this date (YYYY-MM-DD).

## `includeFullDescription` (type: `boolean`):

Fetch the full job ad (description, qualifications, benefits) for every posting. Enables salary parsing. Slightly slower because it makes one extra request per job.

## `maxJobsPerCompany` (type: `integer`):

Stop after this many jobs per company. Use 0 for unlimited.

```json
{
  "companies": [
    "smartrecruiters"
