# Get job listings from a company career site via API

**Use case:** 

Turn a company career site into a job listings API. The task crawls the site, follows links to job pages and returns the schema.org JobPosting data each page publishes: title, company, location, employment type, posted date and full description. Point it at your own career site and run it from the Apify API or on a schedule.

## Input

```json
{
  "startUrls": [
    {
      "url": "https://career.teamtailor.com/jobs"
    }
  ],
  "maxItems": 50,
  "crawl": true,
  "maxPagesPerCrawl": 50,
  "linkPattern": "/jobs/[0-9]+-",
  "maxConcurrency": 5
}
```

## Output

```json
{
  "title": {
    "label": "Title",
    "format": "text"
  },
  "company": {
    "label": "Company",
    "format": "text"
  },
  "location": {
    "label": "Location",
    "format": "text"
  },
  "employmentType": {
    "label": "Employment type",
    "format": "text"
  },
  "salaryMin": {
    "label": "Salary from",
    "format": "number"
  },
  "salaryMax": {
    "label": "Salary to",
    "format": "number"
  },
  "datePosted": {
    "label": "Date posted",
    "format": "date"
  },
  "url": {
    "label": "URL",

## How to integrate an Actor?

This Task's input is already configured above. Use it as-is rather than inventing a new one.

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 full API examples (JavaScript, Python, CLI, MCP, OpenAPI), see this Task's Actor page: https://apify.com/rocketyard/jobposting-schema-scraper.md

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`).
