WayUp Scraper: US Intern & Entry-Level Jobs

Extract student, intern, and early-career job listings from WayUp.com, the US student-focused job board. Every row includes the fields you need to route a candidate straight to an application: title, company, salary, location, degree required, and a direct apply link.

What it does

• Discovers listings via WayUp's public sitemap (~55,000 active US roles), or accepts a list of listing URLs you already have.
• Fetches each detail page over HTTP, no browser, no login.
• Parses WayUp's hydration payload for a complete field set that matches what a candidate sees on the site.
• Deduplicates and filters by keyword, location, and employment type (intern / full-time / part-time).
• Streams results to your Apify dataset as they land.

Pricing

Event	Price
Actor start	$0.001
Detail result (per job)	$0.005

Typical cost: $5 per 1,000 jobs. WayUp is a single-fetch scraper: every listing includes the full description, so there's no cheaper SERP-only mode. Runs on 128 MB memory; most searches finish in under a minute of compute time.

New to Apify? Every account gets a $5 free monthly platform credit, enough for around 1,000 jobs on this actor before you commit to paying anything. Test extensively first.

Input

Field	Type	Description
startUrls	array	WayUp URLs: see Supported URL patterns below. Skip this to auto-discover via sitemap.
searchQueries	array	One or more keywords, each matched on the job title (case-insensitive, all words must appear). A job matching several queries is returned once, tagged with the first matching query in search_query and billed once. Example: ["marketing", "software engineer", "finance"].
maxResultsPerQuery	integer	Cap per query so one broad keyword cannot starve the others. If maxResults is not set, the total is this value times the number of queries.
keywordFilter	string	Single-keyword alias, used only when searchQueries is empty (treated as [keywordFilter]). Example: software engineer intern.
locationFilter	string	Match on the city or state code. Example: New York, NY or CA.
sortBy	string	newest (default) or relevance. With newest, sitemap results are sorted by last-modified timestamp descending; startUrls results are sorted by posted_at_datetime descending after all PDPs are fetched. With relevance, WayUp's native sitemap order is preserved and no reordering is applied.
employmentTypeFilter	string	any, internship, entry_level, part_time, or campus_rep.
includeJobDetails	boolean	Every row already includes PDP fields since WayUp is a single-fetch scraper. Kept for interface parity.
maxResults	integer	Total cap on jobs written to the dataset. If unset, defaults to maxResultsPerQuery times the number of queries, or 5 when no query is given.
maxConcurrency	integer	Concurrent detail fetches. Default 5, max 20.

Multi-keyword example

{
  "searchQueries": ["marketing", "software engineer", "finance"],
  "maxResultsPerQuery": 15,
  "sortBy": "newest",
  "postedWithinDays": 30
}

This returns up to 15 jobs per keyword (45 in total). Sitemaps are fetched once and shared by all queries. sortBy and postedWithinDays apply to each query separately, so every query gets its own newest jobs first. Each row carries a search_query field with the keyword that matched. With sortBy: relevance, each query keeps WayUp's native sitemap order.

Supported URL patterns

You can paste any of these URL shapes into startUrls:

Pattern	Example	What it returns
Job detail (PDP)	https://www.wayup.com/i-Technology-j-Designer-Intern-2027-IBM-997214368691144/	That single listing
Entry-level category	https://www.wayup.com/s/entry-level-jobs/accounting/	All entry-level accounting jobs on WayUp
Part-time category	https://www.wayup.com/s/part-time-jobs/biology/	All part-time biology jobs on WayUp
Campus / university	https://www.wayup.com/s/campuses/harvard-university/	All jobs tagged to that university

Category and campus URLs are automatically expanded: the scraper fetches the list page and queues each individual job PDP, then applies searchQueries, locationFilter, employmentTypeFilter, and maxResults as normal.

Why this scraper

• Coverage: pulls from WayUp's own sitemap so you see the same listings a candidate sees on the site, including distributed job partners.
• Student-specific fields: degree required, GPA minimum, preferred major, visa sponsorship, campus-rep roles. Generic job scrapers drop all of these.
• Salary parsing: two-pass extractor. Prefers Google-for-Jobs structured data, falls back to the free-text compensation block, then to a regex sweep of the body. Real ranges land in salary_min / salary_max, not just a text blob.
• Company logos: WayUp CDN URLs work as-is for enrichment pipelines.
• HTTP-only: no browser, no CAPTCHA overhead. Runs at 128 MB.

Common use cases

• Campus recruiting: pull all internships in a target metro, cross-reference against your ATS, hand off warm leads to the recruiter team.
• University career services: build a real-time board of active roles for a specific major.
• Job aggregation: feed WayUp roles into a private job board or newsletter for students.
• Salary benchmarking: extract compensation ranges across intern and entry-level roles by industry.

Notes and limits

• Employer data (company_about, company_website, company_social_urls) is aggregated from the PDP JSON payload: no additional HTTP requests, no separate charge event.
• WayUp is US-only. Non-US locations return zero results.
• salary_min/salary_max may be null on listings where the employer did not disclose compensation. salary_text is null when WayUp does not expose a dedicated salary value (the platform embeds compensation inconsistently, so we prefer null over publishing description snippets as salary).
• gpa_min, sponsors_visa, and degree_required are populated when WayUp exposes them as structured application questions. Employers vary in what they declare.
• Sitemap discovery is filtered by URL substring, which covers title and city terms baked into the slug. For exact-phrase matching on descriptions, run detail-only mode with a curated startUrls list.
• application_url is a WayUp redirect that hops to the employer's ATS. Follow the redirect to reach the raw apply page.
