SEEK Company Reviews & Ratings Scraper

SEEK Company Reviews & Ratings Scraper

Scrape company reviews and ratings from SEEK, up to 100,000 per run. Each result includes the overall rating, review summary, company details, and industry. No login required. Export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML.

SEEK's company reviews offer direct insight into employee sentiment, but manually browsing thousands of profiles is slow and unscalable. This Actor reads the public company listing pages directly, collecting every available review and rating into a structured dataset. It is built for analysts who need a clean, consistent feed of employer reputation data without writing their own crawlers.

Who uses it	What they scrape SEEK for
HR analysts	Benchmarking a client's employer brand rating against competitors in the same industry.
Recruitment agencies	Identifying companies with low ratings to target for new business development.
Market researchers	Aggregating employee satisfaction signals across an entire sector for a quarterly report.
Job seekers	Filtering potential employers by minimum rating before applying for a role.

What it does

This Actor collects SEEK company profiles from listing pages and returns each one as a flat row with its rating, review count, and metadata.

• ⭐ Overall ratings: the star rating and total number of reviews for each company.
• 🏢 Company details: name, industry, and profile URL for direct reference.
• 📄 Structured output: a consistent flat schema ready for analysis in any spreadsheet tool.

Results export to CSV, JSON, Excel, or XML, or straight from the API.

Troubleshooting

Why am I getting no results?

Check that your start URLs point to valid SEEK company listing pages. If you are using a search or filtered URL, verify it returns results in a regular browser first.

The run stopped before reaching my max items limit.

The Actor stops when it has visited all available pages from your start URLs. If there are fewer companies listed than your max items setting, it will finish early.

I am getting blocked or seeing errors.

Ensure the proxy configuration is enabled. Increasing the delay between requests or using a larger pool of residential proxies can also help.

The data output is missing some fields.

Some SEEK company profiles may not have a rating or industry listed. The Actor returns empty values for any missing data points to keep the schema consistent.
