It has two run modes. 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. Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md. ## 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. Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run. For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below. Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`). # README ## SEEK Jobs Scraper **Scrape SEEK jobs in Australia and New Zealand by keyword and location.** Get title, company, salary as numbers, work type, classification, full description, expiry date and apply link. Export to JSON, CSV or Excel, or use the API. **$0.50 per 1,000 jobs, no start fee.** Scrape jobs from **SEEK**, the biggest job site in Australia and New Zealand (`seek.com.au`, `seek.co.nz`), the way you search on the website: keywords, location and every SEEK filter. Each job comes with the **salary as numbers** (SEEK shows pay as free text, such as "$120k - $140k p.a. + Super"), work type, work arrangement, classification, suburb, state and postcode, the full description, the expiry date and the company's industry, size and website. SEEK shows at most 550 jobs per search; this scraper splits big searches to **get them all**. Run it on a schedule to get **only new jobs**. No browser, no login. ### What can this SEEK scraper do? - πŸ”Ž **Search like on the website**: keywords such as `registered nurse` or `python developer`, a suburb, city or state, or paste any seek.com.au or seek.co.nz search link. - 🌏 **Australia and New Zealand**: pick the country; salaries come in AUD or NZD. - πŸŽ›οΈ **All SEEK filters**: classification, work type (full time, part time, contract/temp, casual), work arrangement (on-site, hybrid, remote), date listed and minimum salary per year, month or hour. Sort by newest or by relevance. - ♾️ **Beyond 550 results**: big searches are split by classification, work type and salary band, then merged without duplicates. - πŸ’° **Salary as numbers**: "$120k - $140k p.a. + Super" becomes `{ "min": 120000, "max": 140000, "currency": "AUD", "interval": "year" }`. Hourly, daily and fortnightly pay are recognized too. - 🏒 **Company profile**: industry, number of employees, website and the company's SEEK rating. - πŸ“ **Suburb, state and postcode** of every job, ready for maps and regional reports. - πŸ†• **Only new jobs since the last run**: for job alerts, recruiting pipelines and market monitoring. - 🧩 **Same output as our other job scrapers**, listed at the end of this page, so jobs from company career sites and job boards fit into one table. ### What data does it extract? | Field | Example | |---|---| | `title` | Registered Nurse - PACU/Anaesthetics | | `companyName` | Mater Group | | `department` / `subClassification` | Healthcare & Medical / Nursing - Theatre & Recovery | | `location` / `suburb` / `state` / `postcode` | Springfield, Brisbane QLD / Springfield / Queensland / 4300 | | `workplaceType` / `employmentType` | onsite / full-time | | `salary` | `{ "min": 44.06, "max": 56.52, "currency": "AUD", "interval": "hour" }` | | `bulletPoints` | the three selling points shown on SEEK | | `postedAt` / `validThrough` | 2026-09-25 / 2026-10-09 | | `companyIndustry` / `companySize` / `companyWebsite` | Healthcare Services / More than 10,000 employees / http://mater.org.au/ | | `jobUrl` / `applyUrl` | https://www.seek.com.au/job/94881142 | | `descriptionText` / `descriptionHtml` | full job description | ### How to scrape SEEK jobs 1. Enter **job titles or keywords**, one search per line, for example `registered nurse`. Or paste links of searches you made on SEEK. 2. Pick the **country** and optionally a **location** such as `Sydney NSW` or `All Melbourne VIC`. 3. Optionally choose **classifications**, **work types**, **work arrangements**, a **minimum salary** or a **date range**. 4. Click **Start**. Download the jobs as JSON, CSV, Excel or HTML, or get them through the API. #### Example input ```json { "searchQueries": ["registered nurse", "data analyst"], "country": "AU", "location": "Brisbane QLD", "workTypes": ["242", "243"], "postedWithinDays": 7, "onlyWithSalary": true } ``` Work types are `242` full time, `243` part time, `244` contract/temp and `245` casual/vacation. In the form you simply pick them from a list. #### Example output ```json { "ats": "seek", "company": "20898315", "companyName": "Mater Group", "jobId": "94881142", "title": "Registered Nurse - PACU/Anaesthetics", "department": "Healthcare & Medical", "location": "Springfield, Brisbane QLD", "locations": ["Springfield, Brisbane QLD"], "remote": false, "workplaceType": "onsite", "employmentType": "full-time", "salary": { "min": 44.06, "max": 56.52, "currency": "AUD", "interval": "hour", "text": "$44.06 - $56.52 per hour + super + benefits!", "source": "listing" }, "postedAt": "2026-09-25T06:39:14.587Z", "jobUrl": "https://www.seek.com.au/job/94881142", "applyUrl": "https://www.seek.com.au/job/94881142/apply", "descriptionText": "About the role\n\nMater Hospital Springfield has an exciting opportunity for experienced Registered Nurses…", "descriptionHtml": "

About the role

…", "subClassification": "Nursing - Theatre & Recovery", "bulletPoints": [ "Make a difference and join Mater Hospital Springfield's new public hospital!", "Increase take-home pay with tax-free NFP Salary Packaging up to $15,900", "Permanent full-time or part-time opportunity based at Springfield!" ], "suburb": "Springfield", "state": "Queensland", "postcode": "4300", "country": "Australia", "validThrough": "2026-10-09T13:55:00.000Z", "companyIndustry": "Healthcare Services", "companySize": "More than 10,000 employees", "companyWebsite": "http://mater.org.au/", "companyRating": 2.3, "companyReviewCount": 189, "companyLogoUrl": "https://bx-branding-gateway.cloud.seek.com.au/….1/jdpLogo", "scrapedAt": "2026-09-25T17:15:58.793Z" } ``` ### Use cases - **Recruitment agencies**: see every new role in your sector and region each morning, with pay and company size. - **Job boards and aggregators**: fill an Australian or New Zealand job board with fresh SEEK listings. - **Sales and lead generation**: companies hiring are growing. Industry, size and website turn job ads into leads. - **Salary research**: compare pay by role, classification, state and work type, with hourly and yearly rates as numbers. - **Labor market analytics**: track demand by classification, suburb and work arrangement over time. ### How much does it cost? You pay only for the jobs you get: **$0.50 per 1,000 jobs**. There is no start fee. Jobs filtered out by your settings are free. The Apify free plan covers about 10,000 jobs every month. ### Tips - **Daily job alerts**: save your input as a task, turn on **Only new jobs since the last run** and add a schedule. Send new jobs to Slack, email or Google Sheets with Apify integrations. - **Fast lists**: turn off **Load full job details**. You still get title, company, location, salary, work type, date and the selling points. - **Stricter results**: SEEK also matches related words. Use **Title must contain** to keep only jobs with your keyword in the title. - **Location names**: use them as SEEK shows them, such as `Sydney NSW`, `All Sydney NSW` (the whole region) or `Western Australia WA`. The log warns you when SEEK does not know a location. - **Errors per search**: see the `SUMMARY` record in the run's key-value store. ### FAQ **Why do some jobs have no salary?** Many ads show text such as "Competitive salary" instead of numbers. When numbers are given, they are parsed; `salary.text` keeps SEEK's original wording. **Does it collect recruiter contact details?** No. There are no fields for recruiters' names, emails or phone numbers, and they are not requested. The job description is saved as the employer wrote it. **Is it legal to scrape SEEK?** The Actor reads the public job listings SEEK shows to every visitor.

Each line is a separate search with the filters below. You can also paste links of searches from seek.com.au or seek.co.nz. ## `country` (type: `string`): The SEEK site to search. Salaries come in its currency, AUD or NZD. ## `location` (type: `string`): A suburb, city, region or state as on SEEK, for example Sydney NSW, All Melbourne VIC, Queensland QLD or Auckland. Leave empty for the whole country. ## `classifications` (type: `array`): Job categories as on SEEK. Leave empty for all. ## `workTypes` (type: `array`): Leave empty for all. ## `workArrangements` (type: `array`): On-site, hybrid or remote. Leave empty for all. ## `postedWithinDays` (type: `integer`): Keep jobs listed in the last N days: 1 means today and yesterday. Leave empty or 0 for any date. ## `minSalary` (type: `integer`): Keep jobs paying at least this much, in AUD or NZD, per the salary type below. SEEK applies it to the pay range the employer set, even when the ad does not show it. ## `salaryType` (type: `string`): What the minimum salary above means. ## `sortBy` (type: `string`): Newest first suits job alerts. Links you paste keep their own order. ## `excludeKeywords` (type: `array`): Skip jobs whose title contains any of these, for example intern or senior. Common word endings are included. ## `keywords` (type: `array`): Keep only jobs whose title contains any of these words or phrases. SEEK searches descriptions too, so this makes results stricter. Add * for any ending: data*. ## `onlyWithSalary` (type: `boolean`): Keep only jobs that state a pay range or rate. ## `onlyNew` (type: `boolean`): For scheduled runs: save only jobs that were not seen in earlier runs of the same saved task. The first run saves all current jobs and remembers them. Jobs that did not match your filters are remembered too. ## `includeDescription` (type: `boolean`): Open each job page for the full description (text and HTML), expiry date and company industry, size and website. Turn off for fast results with a short summary instead. ## `maxItems` (type: `integer`): Stop after saving this many jobs. Leave empty or 0 for no limit. The example is kept small so the first run takes seconds. ## `maxItemsPerCompany` (type: `integer`): Save at most this many jobs from each search. Leave empty or 0 for no limit. ## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`): The Actor connects directly, which is fastest. If SEEK starts limiting requests, it switches to Apify Proxy automatically. Turn on a proxy here only to use it from the start. ## Actor input object example ```json { "searchQueries": [ "python developer" ], "country": "AU", "salaryType": "annual", "sortBy": "ListedDate", "onlyWithSalary": false, "onlyNew": false, "includeDescription": true, "maxItems": 50, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false } } ``` # Actor output Schema ## `jobs` (type: `string`): Job postings with title, company, locations, salary, dates, description and links. ## `summary` (type: `string`): Jobs found, matched and saved for each company, with errors. # API You can run this Actor programmatically using our API. Below are code examples in JavaScript, Python, and CLI, as well as the OpenAPI specification and MCP server setup. ## JavaScript example ```javascript import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client'; // Initialize the ApifyClient with your Apify API token // Replace the '' with your token const client = new ApifyClient({ token: '', }); // Prepare Actor input const input = { "searchQueries": [ "python developer" ], "maxItems": 50, "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": false } }; // Run the Actor and wait for it to finish const run = await client.actor("robertosan16/seek-jobs-scraper").call(input); // Fetch and print Actor results from the run's dataset (if any) console.log('Results from dataset'); console.log(`πŸ’Ύ Check your data here: https://console.apify.com/storage/datasets/${run.defaultDatasetId}`); const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems(); items.forEach((item) => { console.dir(item); }); // πŸ“š Want to learn more πŸ“–?
