LinkedIn Jobs Scraper — no login, full details, salary as numbers, dead-listing check

Search LinkedIn jobs by keyword and location using LinkedIn's own filters, and get every job with the data the search page hides: the full description, seniority level, employment type, job function, industries, applicant count, salary parsed to numbers, and whether the listing is still live. Uses LinkedIn's public guest endpoints, so there is no login, no cookies, nothing to get banned.

What makes this one different

Most LinkedIn job scrapers return the search card: title, company, location, link. This one opens each job (optional, on by default) and adds:

• Salary as numbers — salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryCurrency, salaryPeriod, parsed from LinkedIn's salary field or, when the company only writes it in the description, from the description.
• Applicant count — "Over 200 applicants" and the number 200.
• Live check — isLive is false when LinkedIn reports the job closed, so stale listings never reach your pipeline.
• Apply URL — the external application link when the company uses its own ATS.

Use cases

Job-market research and salary benchmarking, recruiting lead lists (companies hiring for a role, with their ATS), competitor hiring monitoring, and feeding job boards and aggregators with listings that are verified live.

Notes

• Salary numbers come from LinkedIn's field when present, otherwise from a compensation sentence in the description; salaryText shows the source text so you can check it.
• LinkedIn caps a search at ~1,000 results. Split by location or posting window for full coverage.
