## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Career Site Jobs Scraper — 7 ATS Platforms, One Schema

Scrape **job postings from any company career site** hosted on the 7 most popular applicant tracking systems — with a single Actor and a single, clean, normalized output schema:

| ATS | Example input |
|---|---|
| **Greenhouse** (US + EU) | `https://boards.greenhouse.io/stripe` |
| **Lever** (US + EU) | `https://jobs.lever.co/palantir` |
| **Ashby** | `https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/openai` |
| **SmartRecruiters** | `https://careers.smartrecruiters.com/ServiceNow` |
| **Workable** | `https://apply.workable.com/netguru` |
| **Recruitee** | `https://sendcloud.recruitee.com` |
| **BambooHR** | `https://lucid.bamboohr.com/careers` |

Just paste career-page URLs — **the ATS is detected automatically**. Mix platforms freely in one run. No API keys, no proxies, no configuration. You can also use the explicit form `ats:identifier` (e.g. `greenhouse:stripe`).

### Why this Actor

- ✅ **One schema for everything** — identical columns whether the job comes from Greenhouse or BambooHR. Stop writing mapping code.
- ✅ **Full descriptions** in plain text *and* HTML
- ✅ **Salary data** — native structured salary fields (Lever, Recruitee, Ashby compensation, BambooHR) plus smart parsing of pay-transparency ranges in ad text
- ✅ **Structured locations** with a reliable `remote` flag
- ✅ Department, employment type, experience level, published date, direct apply URLs
- ✅ **Cross-company deduplication** in every run
- ✅ Fast and cheap: uses the same public JSON endpoints the career pages themselves load

### Use cases

- **Job boards & aggregators** — cover 7 ATS platforms with one integration
- **Recruiting & talent intelligence** — track hiring across your whole watchlist, regardless of which ATS each company uses
- **Sales lead generation** — companies hiring for role X are buying tools for X
- **Salary benchmarking** — structured pay data straight from the source
- **AI agents & LLM pipelines** — clean JSON for RAG or agent tools

### Pricing

Pay-per-event: a small fee per Actor start plus a per-job fee. You only pay for the jobs you actually get.

### FAQ

**How do I find the right URL for a company?** Open the company's careers page and look at where the job links point (e.g. `boards.greenhouse.io/...`, `jobs.lever.co/...`). Paste that URL. If a company's career site is white-labeled, use the explicit `ats:identifier` form.

**What if a company's ATS isn't supported?** The Actor logs a warning and continues with the remaining entries. Single-platform versions of this scraper are also available on my profile — the output schema is identical, so you can combine them freely.

**Is this legal?** The Actor only reads the public, unauthenticated job-board APIs that these ATS platforms provide exactly for publishing postings. No login, no personal data.

# Actor input Schema

## `careerPages` (type: `array`):

Career-site URLs on any supported ATS — the platform is detected automatically. Examples: <code>https://boards.greenhouse.io/stripe</code>, <code>https://jobs.lever.co/palantir</code>, <code>https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/openai</code>, <code>https://apply.workable.com/netguru</code>, <code>https://careers.smartrecruiters.com/ServiceNow</code>, <code>https://sendcloud.recruitee.com</code>, <code>https://lucid.bamboohr.com/careers</code>. You can also use the explicit form <code>ats:identifier</code>, e.g. <code>greenhouse:stripe</code>.

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

Optional case-insensitive filter on the job title and description, e.g. <code>engineer</code>.

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

Optional case-insensitive filter matched against all posting locations, e.g. <code>Berlin</code>, <code>us</code>, <code>remote</code>.

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

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

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

Fetch complete job descriptions where the ATS requires extra detail requests (SmartRecruiters, Workable, BambooHR). Turn off for faster, cheaper runs when you only need titles and locations.

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

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