## 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

## Hiring Gap Bridge Offer Scorer

Turn job-post rows into scored hiring-gap buying signals, bridge-offer angles, and CRM-ready outreach hooks.

This Actor is intentionally **ingest-first**. It does not scrape job boards in v0.1. Bring rows from existing Apify job scrapers, CSV exports, Clay/Airtable/Sheets exports, or manually collected job posts. The Actor normalizes, deduplicates, scores, and adds sales context.

### Who it is for

- B2B agencies using job postings as buying-intent signals.
- RevOps / Salesforce / HubSpot consultants looking for timely accounts.
- Staffing, fractional, and implementation teams that sell a short-term bridge while a role is open.
- GTM teams that already scrape job posts but need CRM-ready prioritization and outreach context.

### Example use cases

- Score job posts from existing Apify job scrapers before importing accounts into a CRM.
- Find companies hiring for roles your agency can temporarily bridge while recruiting continues.
- Detect tool mentions like Salesforce, HubSpot, Outreach, or your custom keywords inside job descriptions.
- Turn a job post into a short, evidence-backed outreach hook for sales development.
- Prioritize noisy job-post exports by urgency, seniority, department, and tool-stack fit.

### Input

Required:
- `mode`: must be `items`.
- `items`: non-empty array of job-post-like objects.

Optional:
- `serviceProfile`: what you sell, e.g. `fractional RevOps team`.
- `targetRoles`: role/function terms that indicate fit.
- `toolKeywords`: tools, platforms, or competitors to detect in titles/descriptions.
- `maxItems`: cap input rows. Defaults to `500`; maximum `5000`.

Common input row fields:
- `companyName`, `employer`, or `company.name`
- `domain`, `companyWebsite`, `website`, or `company.website`
- `jobTitle`, `title`, or `position`
- `jobUrl`, `url`, or `applyUrl`
- `postedAt`, `datePosted`, or `createdAt`
- `location`, `description`, `source`

Example:

```json
{
  "mode": "items",
  "serviceProfile": "fractional RevOps team",
  "targetRoles": ["Revenue Operations", "Sales Operations", "Salesforce"],
  "toolKeywords": ["Salesforce", "HubSpot", "Outreach"],
  "items": [
    {
      "companyName": "Northstar CRM",
      "domain": "northstarcrm.com",
      "jobTitle": "Senior Salesforce Revenue Operations Manager",
      "jobUrl": "https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/northstar/sr-revops",
      "postedAt": "2026-07-01",
      "description": "Own Salesforce, HubSpot, attribution workflows, pipeline reporting, and urgent GTM automation projects while we scale the sales team."
    }
  ]
}
````

### Output

Each output row includes:

- Identity: `dedupeKey`, `companyName`, `domain`, `jobTitle`, `jobUrl`, `postedAt`, `location`, `source`
- Classification: `department`, `seniority`, `detectedTools`, `signalTypes`
- Scoring: `opportunityScore`, `scoreReasons`, `urgencyLabel`, `warnings`
- Sales context: `buyerPersona`, `bridgeOfferAngle`, `outreachHook`, `vacancyCostFrame`, `evidenceSnippets`
- Metadata: `scrapedAt`

Example output fields:

```json
{
  "dedupeKey": "job:northstarcrm.com|senior-salesforce-revenue-operations-manager",
  "companyName": "Northstar CRM",
  "domain": "northstarcrm.com",
  "jobTitle": "Senior Salesforce Revenue Operations Manager",
  "detectedTools": ["Salesforce", "HubSpot"],
  "signalTypes": ["target_role_match", "seniority_signal", "tool_or_stack_signal", "urgency_signal"],
  "opportunityScore": 80,
  "urgencyLabel": "hot",
  "buyerPersona": "Sales / Revenue leader",
  "bridgeOfferAngle": "Offer a fractional RevOps team to bridge the Revenue Operations gap while the role is still open, using the job post as evidence of current priorities."
}
```

### Scoring v0.1

The scoring is deterministic and transparent:

- target role/function match: `+20`
- seniority signal: `+15`
- detected tool/stack keyword: `+15`
- posted date present: `+10`
- domain present: `+10`
- urgency/ownership/implementation language: `+10`
- missing domain: `-10`

Scores are clamped to `0..100`.

Urgency labels:

- `hot`: 75+
- `warm`: 50-74
- `watch`: 25-49
- `low`: below 25

### Local development

```bash
npm install
npm test
node src/main.js --input ../../samples/hiring-gap/hiring-gap-bridge-offer-scorer-input.json --output ../../samples/hiring-gap/hiring-gap-bridge-offer-scorer-output.json
apify validate-schema
apify run
```

### Limitations

- v0.1 supports `items` mode only. It does not fetch job URLs or scrape job boards.
- Generated copy is deterministic template text, not personalized human review.
- It does not find emails or contacts.
- It does not guarantee replies, sales, revenue, or hiring outcomes.
- Treat job posts as signals to verify, not proof of budget authority.

### Next possible upgrades

- `datasetId` input for direct Apify Dataset chaining.
- Role packs for RevOps, Salesforce, recruiting, AI automation, security, and agencies.
- Multi-post company aggregation: detect hiring spikes across related roles.
- Optional lightweight URL fetch only after `items` mode proves useful.
