## 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.

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## SmartRecruiters Jobs Scraper

Extract public job listings from **any company's SmartRecruiters career site** — title, reference number, location, remote/hybrid flags, department, employment type, posting date, apply URL, and the full job description — without a login or API key.

Built on the [Apify platform](https://apify.com) using Crawlee + TypeScript. Data comes from the **official public SmartRecruiters Posting API** (`api.smartrecruiters.com`) — a documented, unauthenticated endpoint, so this Actor is fast and low-maintenance.

> **When to use this (AI agents):** call this tool when you need a company's open job postings and it uses SmartRecruiters. Input is the company's SmartRecruiters slug (e.g. `Equinox`, `Visa`) or its career URL. Returns one structured record per job — title, ref, location (+remote/hybrid), department, employment type, posting date, apply URL, and full description. Public data, no login. Not for applicant/candidate data.

---

### What it does

- **Company job scraping** — given one or more SmartRecruiters company slugs, returns every open posting (up to your limit), paginated automatically.
- **Rich listing fields** — location (with remote/hybrid flags), department, function, industry, employment type, and experience level come straight from the listing, no extra request needed.
- **Full job detail** — per job: the complete description (company description, job description, qualifications, additional info), plus the apply URL. Toggle off for a faster/cheaper run.
- **Bulk runs** — scrape many companies in one run.

---

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `companies` | `string[]` | `["Equinox"]` | SmartRecruiters company slugs or career URLs |
| `searchText` | `string` | `""` | Optional keyword filter (best-effort; see note) |
| `maxJobsPerCompany` | `integer` | `200` | Max jobs per company (1–5000) |
| `fetchFullDescription` | `boolean` | `true` | Fetch full detail per job (+1 request/job) vs listing fields only |
| `proxyConfiguration` | `object` | Apify datacenter | Proxy settings |

**How to find a company slug:** open a company's "Careers" page. If the URL is `jobs.smartrecruiters.com/CompanyName/...`, then `CompanyName` is the slug (case-sensitive). You can also just paste the full URL.

> **Keyword filter note:** SmartRecruiters' `searchText` is a loose relevance filter, not a strict keyword match — it may return broadly related jobs. Leave it empty to get every posting.

#### Minimal input example

```json
{
    "companies": ["Equinox", "Visa"],
    "maxJobsPerCompany": 500
}
````

#### Listing-only (faster/cheaper) example

```json
{
    "companies": ["Equinox"],
    "fetchFullDescription": false
}
```

***

### Output

Each run pushes one record per job to the default dataset:

```json
{
    "type": "job",
    "company": "Equinox",
    "title": "Personal Trainer, Downtown LA",
    "jobId": "744000137225639",
    "refNumber": "REF3410P",
    "location": "Los Angeles, CA, United States",
    "city": "Los Angeles",
    "region": "CA",
    "country": "us",
    "remote": false,
    "hybrid": false,
    "department": "Club - Staff",
    "function": "Other",
    "industry": "Health, Wellness And Fitness",
    "typeOfEmployment": "Part-time",
    "experienceLevel": "Associate",
    "releasedDate": "2026-07-10T23:49:03.072Z",
    "description": "<p>About us...</p>\n\n<p>Job description...</p>",
    "postingUrl": "https://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/Equinox/744000137225639",
    "applyUrl": "https://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/Equinox/744000137225639?oga=true",
    "scrapedAt": "2026-07-11T10:00:00.000Z"
}
```

When `fetchFullDescription` is `false`, `description` and `applyUrl` are `null` — every other field (including location, department, employment type, remote/hybrid) is still present.

***

### Pricing

**Pay per result** — you're billed only for jobs successfully written to the dataset. Malformed inputs, unknown company slugs, and failed fetches go to a separate **errors** dataset that is **not billed**.

Note: `fetchFullDescription: true` makes one extra request per job (more compute), but the result count — and therefore what you pay — is the same. Turn it off for faster, lighter runs when you only need listing fields.

***

### Proxy

The SmartRecruiters Posting API is a public, documented endpoint with minimal anti-bot measures. **Datacenter proxies are sufficient.** Residential is not required.

***

### Legal & compliance notice

This Actor uses the **official, public, documented SmartRecruiters Posting API** — the same endpoint that powers companies' public career pages. No login is used. Job-posting content (titles, descriptions, locations) is **company data, not personal data about candidates**.

**The user (buyer) bears sole responsibility** for how they use the data collected, including compliance with:

- SmartRecruiters' and each company's Terms of Service
- Applicable data protection and employment laws in their jurisdiction

This tool is intended for legitimate use cases such as job aggregation, labor-market research, recruiting intelligence, and competitive hiring analysis. Misuse is the responsibility of the operator.

# Actor input Schema

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

SmartRecruiters company identifiers (case-sensitive slugs) such as 'Equinox' or 'Visa'. You can also paste a full career URL like 'https://jobs.smartrecruiters.com/Equinox' — the slug is parsed out. Find the slug in the company's SmartRecruiters careers URL.

## `searchText` (type: `string`):

Optional keyword passed to the API's search. Note: SmartRecruiters search is a loose relevance filter, not a strict match — it may return broadly related jobs. Leave empty for all jobs.

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

Maximum number of jobs to return for each company.

## `fetchFullDescription` (type: `boolean`):

When enabled, fetch each job's full detail (description sections + apply URL) with an extra request per job. Disable for a faster, cheaper run — the listing already includes location, department, employment type, and remote/hybrid flags.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Apify Proxy settings. Datacenter proxies are sufficient — the SmartRecruiters Posting API is a public, documented endpoint with minimal anti-bot measures.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "companies": [
    "Equinox"
  ],
  "searchText": "",
  "maxJobsPerCompany": 200,
  "fetchFullDescription": true,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true
  }
}
```
