💼 Indeed Jobs Scraper — Search by Keyword or URL [Bypass the 25-Job Limit]

Bypasses Indeed's ~25-jobs-per-page limit with deep multi-city discovery. No login required. Residential proxy ready. Pay per successful result — just $1.40 per 1,000 jobs scraped.

💡 What is the Indeed Jobs Scraper?

This actor extracts full job postings from Indeed by loading public search result pages in a stealth Playwright browser, reading the embedded mosaic-provider-jobcards JSON model, and then batch-hydrating complete HTML job descriptions via Indeed's internal /rpc/jobdescs endpoint. It uses a multi-layer enrichment pipeline so each output record is as complete as possible:

1. Search-page JSON extraction — pulls the mosaicProviderJobCardsModel.results object straight from window.mosaic.providerData (title, company, salary, rating, location, taxonomy, external apply URL).
2. RPC description hydration — batches job keys and calls Indeed's internal /rpc/jobdescs?jks=... endpoint for the full rich HTML job description (not just the snippet).
3. Company profile enrichment — matches well-known employers against a built-in company database (CEO, revenue, industry, website, employee count, founded year), with sensible generic fallbacks for unknown companies.
4. Resume keyword scoring — compares your resume/CV skills against each job's title + description and returns a 0–100 match score plus matched/missing keyword lists.
5. Requirements & benefits extraction — automatically parses bullet-point requirements and benefits out of the job description using section-header heuristics with regex fallbacks.

On top of core job data, the actor supports regional auto-expansion: give a US state (e.g., "Texas") or country and it will run the same query across 5–8 top cities in that region, producing 2–5× more unique jobs than a single national search — this is the main mechanism that bypasses Indeed's ~25-jobs-per-page limit.

No Indeed account, no login, no cookies required. You are charged only for successful job records.

💰 Pricing

Metric	Price
Per successful job scraped (job-scraped)	$0.0014
Per 1,000 successful jobs scraped	$1.40
Per external apply URL resolved (external-apply-resolved)	$0.001
Per 1,000 external apply URLs resolved	$1.00
Per Actor start (apify-actor-start)	$0.03

• Pay-per-event: you are charged one job-scraped event ($1.40 / 1,000) per successfully scraped job (a job that passes all your filters and is pushed to the dataset).
• Optional external-apply-resolved event ($1.00 / 1,000) — triggered only if resolveExternalApplyUrl = true and the job has an external apply URL.
• apify-actor-start event ($0.03) — flat charge per run.
• Failed, blocked, empty, or filtered-out jobs are free — no charge.
• Example: 1,000 successful jobs = $1.40. 10,000 successful jobs = $14.00.
• Spending limit protection: the run automatically and gracefully stops as soon as your configured Apify spending limit for the job-scraped event is reached — no further jobs are processed or charged.

🛠 How to Use on Apify

1. Create a task with this actor.
2. Choose a mode:
   • Keyword mode — fill in position, country, and optionally location. Add keywords for extra searches.
   • URL mode — paste Indeed search URLs into startUrls.
3. Optional tuning:
   • Set deepSearch = true to add Senior / Lead / Junior variants.
   • Set expandToCities = true and give a state/region ("Texas", "California", "United Kingdom", "Canada") for auto multi-city expansion — this is the main way to bypass the 25-job limit.
   • Set resumeKeywords to enable the resumeMatchScore.
   • Set onlyExternalJobs = true to keep only jobs with a third-party apply URL.
4. Proxies are configured automatically — the actor requests Apify's RESIDENTIAL proxy group and uses stealth Playwright to avoid IP blocks.
5. Run — the actor scrapes each search page, batch-hydrates job descriptions, enriches company data, and pushes results to the Dataset.
6. Export — download as JSON, CSV, or Excel from the Dataset tab.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

1. Do I need an Indeed account? No. The actor reads Indeed's public search pages and public job description RPC. No login, no cookies.

2. How does it bypass Indeed's ~25-job limit? Two ways: (a) regional auto-expansion — a state/region search becomes 5–8 separate city searches, multiplying unique jobs; (b) deep search — seniority variants of your keyword each return their own result set.

3. Why do I need residential proxies? Indeed blocks most datacenter IPs after moderate usage. The actor requests Apify's residential proxy group by default to reduce blocking.

4. Can I scrape jobs across multiple countries in one run? Yes — pass multiple startUrls (e.g., www.indeed.com and uk.indeed.com) or run separate tasks per country. The country field controls the domain built for keyword mode.

5. How are salaries parsed? The actor reads Indeed's extractedSalary and salarySnippet objects, producing salaryMin, salaryMax, salaryType, and currency. Hourly salaries are annualized (× 2080) only for the minSalary filter — the output preserves the original type.

6. What is resumeMatchScore? A 0–100 score computed by comparing your resumeKeywords against the job's title + full description, plus matched/missing keyword lists.

7. Am I charged for jobs that fail or are filtered out? No. You're only charged one job-scraped event per job that passes filters and is pushed to the dataset.

8. What triggers the external-apply-resolved charge? Only when resolveExternalApplyUrl = true and the job has an external apply URL — a separate $1.00 / 1,000 PPE event.

9. What happens when my spending limit is reached? The actor detects the pay-per-event spending limit and stops processing further jobs, preventing overspending.

10. Can I export to CSV or Excel? Yes — every Apify dataset can be downloaded as JSON, CSV, Excel, or XML from the Dataset tab.

📝 Technical Notes

• Targets: https://{domain}/jobs?q=...&l=... (search) and https://{domain}/rpc/jobdescs?jks=... (descriptions).
• Parsing strategies: (1) window.mosaic.providerData["mosaic-provider-jobcards"].metaData.mosaicProviderJobCardsModel.results for search results, (2) /rpc/jobdescs for full descriptions, (3) BeautifulSoup for HTML → plain-text cleaning, (4) regex + section-header heuristics for requirements/benefits.
• Anti-bot: playwright-stealth, --disable-blink-features=AutomationControlled, Apify RESIDENTIAL proxy group, Chrome 124 user agent.
• City expansion: REGION_CITY_EXPANSION maps US states, UK regions, and Canadian provinces to their top cities (5–8 each).
• Seniority expansion: SENIORITY_EXPANSIONS adds Senior / Lead / Junior (and optionally Staff / Principal / Manager / Director) variants to the primary keyword.
• Company enrichment: a curated COMPANY_PROFILES_DATABASE (CEO, revenue, industry, website, employees, founded) with generic fallbacks for unknown companies.
• Charging: uses Apify's pay-per-event Actor.charge(event_name=...) with spending-limit detection (event_charge_limit_reached) to stop the run gracefully.
• Output: pushed to the Apify Dataset per successful job as camelCase JSON records.
