Google Jobs Scraper

Scrape job listings from Google Jobs, the job search that collects postings from LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, ZipRecruiter, company career sites and thousands of job boards. Get title, company, location, salary range, job type, posted date, source site, apply links and job description for any search, city and country. No code, no login, no API key.

You pay per job returned. Failed searches, blocked pages and searches with no results are never charged.

Why it's reliable

Google Jobs is one of the hardest Google surfaces to scrape: datacenter IPs get a CAPTCHA, the page wants JavaScript, and Google's generated CSS class names change often. This Actor:

• Uses Apify's Google SERP proxy by default, which is built for Google search pages and included in the price.
• Reads job cards by meaning, not by fragile class names: ARIA labels such as Posted, Salary and Employment Type, button roles and Google's job IDs. Class names are only a fallback hint.
• Recognises every block page (CAPTCHA, "unusual traffic", consent wall, JavaScript wall) and retries with backoff instead of returning an empty list.
• Never returns empty "successful" runs: a search that was blocked comes back as an error item with code BLOCKED and a fix, and isn't charged. A search with genuinely zero jobs comes back as NO_DATA.
• Removes duplicates across searches using Google's job ID.
• Real apply links: Google's apply redirects are resolved to the job board or employer page (Indeed, LinkedIn, ZipRecruiter, company career sites).

How to scrape Google Jobs

1. Enter one or more job searches (e.g. data analyst, registered nurse, jobs at Stripe).
2. Optionally add a location, pick the country, and filter by date posted, job type or remote.
3. Set Max jobs per search and click Start. Export to JSON, CSV, Excel or Google Sheets.

Input example

{
  "queries": ["data analyst", "business intelligence analyst"],
  "location": "London",
  "country": "GB",
  "datePosted": "week",

Pay per job. Proxy and platform costs are included, with no start fee and no charge for failed or empty searches.

Apify plan	Price per job	1,000 jobs

Starter (Bronze)	$0.003	$3.00

Set Max cost per run and the Actor stops cleanly when it reaches it.

Use cases

• Job boards and aggregators: fill niche boards with fresh listings by role, city and recency.
• Recruiting and sales intelligence: find companies that are hiring right now (hiring = budget), with salary ranges.
• Salary benchmarking: collect salary ranges by role and location.
• Labor-market research: track demand for skills, remote share and posting volume over time.
• Job-search agents: give an AI agent live job listings through the Apify API or MCP server.

API and integrations

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("scrapemole/google-jobs-scraper").call(run_input={
    "queries": ["registered nurse"], "location": "Chicago", "datePosted": "3days", "maxJobsPerQuery": 10
})
for job in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(job.get("title"), "@", job.get("company"), job.get("salary"))

Works with n8n, Make, Zapier, Google Sheets, webhooks and the Apify MCP server.

FAQ

Where do the jobs come from? From Google's own jobs search (the "Jobs" tab), which aggregates postings from job boards and employer career pages. via tells you the source and applyLinks takes you to the original posting.

How many jobs can I get per search? Up to 10. Google only renders the first 10 job cards of a Jobs search on the server; the rest load with in-page JavaScript. To get more jobs, add more searches: split by city, seniority ("senior", "junior"), job type or related titles. Duplicates across searches are removed and never charged twice.

Which interface language should I use? Keep language on en (the default) for the fullest data in any country: posted date, salary, job type and qualifications are read from Google's English labels. Other languages still return titles, companies, locations, apply links and descriptions.

Why is the salary missing for some jobs? Many employers don't publish a salary. When Google shows one, it's parsed into min, max, currency and period.

Do date filters work exactly? Recency is added to the search, and results are then filtered by the posted age Google shows ("3 days ago"), so you only get jobs inside the window you chose.

What does BLOCKED mean? Google refused the page even after retries. You're not charged. Keep the default Google SERP proxy; if you changed the proxy, switch back to it.

Is it legal? The Actor collects publicly listed job postings. It doesn't log in or collect applicant data. Make sure your use complies with the laws and terms that apply to you.
