🇮🇳 Naukri.com Jobs Scraper

🚀 Pull Indian job listings from Naukri.com in minutes. Title, company, salary, skills, experience, work type, ratings. No login, no API key.

Pull live job listings from Naukri.com, India's largest job portal. The actor accepts a search keyword plus location, experience, work-type, and sort filters, paginates through results, and returns one structured record per job ready for talent sourcing, recruitment intelligence, salary research, or labor market analysis.

Every run fetches data live so you get the current state of Naukri at run time, not a stale dump. Records include the job title, company name, salary range, required skills, experience range, location, work type (office/remote/hybrid), company rating, post date, full job description, and the canonical Naukri URL.

📋 What the Naukri Scraper does

• 🔍 Keyword search. Pass any Naukri search query (e.g. python developer, data analyst, react).
• 📍 Location filter. Filter by Indian city (bangalore, mumbai, delhi, hyderabad, etc.).
• ⏳ Experience filter. Set minimum years of experience required.
• 🏠 Work type filter. Office, Remote/Work-from-Home, or Hybrid.
• 🔄 Sort options. Relevance or Date Posted.
• 💰 Salary data. Salary range as advertised on the listing.

The scraper walks Naukri's API surface for your filter combination, fetches each job listing, and pushes structured records to the dataset. It runs without a browser for fast, lightweight pulls.

💡 Why it matters: Naukri.com lists millions of Indian jobs but its UI is paginated, JS-rendered, and lacks bulk export. A live, structured pull beats manual sourcing for recruiting, HR analytics, and competitive intelligence at scale.
