The most complete The Muse job scraper available. It returns every field the public job posting exposes, enriches each job with the hiring company's profile (size, industries, description, logo, social handle), and gives you five filters plus an optional contact-enrichment add-on to target exactly the postings you need.

What it does

The actor queries The Muse public job listings, applies the filters you pass as input (category, company, location, experience level, and a free-text keyword), paginates through the matching postings, and writes one normalized record per job to the run's dataset. HTML descriptions are converted to clean plain text, missing source values are returned as null, and each job is enriched with its company profile (size, industries, description, logo, Twitter/X handle) so you get hiring context without a second lookup. Jobs are de-duplicated by job ID across pages.

An optional paid add-on can attempt to find a public business contact email and contact name for each result.

Quickstart

Open the actor, paste this into the input, and press Run. It returns the 10 most recent Software Engineering postings.

{
  "categories": ["Software Engineering"],
  "maxJobs": 10,
  "enrichContacts": false,
  "enrichContactsMax": 50
}

Every input field is optional. With an empty input the actor returns recent postings across all categories (default maxJobs is 50, capped at 10 on free Apify plans).

}

Run via API and CLI

Start a run and wait for it to finish, then read the dataset. Replace <TOKEN> with your Apify API token.

Run synchronously and get dataset items in one call:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~themuse-jobs-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"categories":["Software Engineering"],"levels":["Senior Level"],"maxJobs":25}'

Start a run asynchronously:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/scrapers_lat~themuse-jobs-scraper/runs?token=<TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"companyNames":["uber"],"maxJobs":100}'

Apify CLI:

apify call scrapers_lat/themuse-jobs-scraper \
  --input '{"categories":["Data Science"],"locations":["Flexible / Remote"],"maxJobs":50}'

Fetch results

Every run writes to a dataset. Fetch items as JSON, CSV, or Excel by changing format:

# JSON
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=json"

# CSV
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&clean=true&format=csv"

# Paginate large datasets
curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/datasets/<DATASET_ID>/items?token=<TOKEN>&offset=1000&limit=1000"

<DATASET_ID> is returned as defaultDatasetId in the run object. Use offset and limit to page through large result sets. clean=true drops empty and internal fields.

Billing and limits

• Pay per result. You are charged per record returned (result event). See the pricing tab for the current per-result price.
• Contact enrichment add-on. When enrichContacts is on, the add-on is billed per attempt, plus an extra charge only when an email is found. It is off by default.
• No charge on failure. If a run errors, the actor writes a single item with a populated error field and does not charge for it. Empty runs cost nothing.
• Spend cap respected. Set maxTotalChargeUsd on the run; once reached, the actor stops emitting and charging further billable results.
• Free Apify plans are capped at 10 records per run (and 3 contact-enrichment attempts). Upgrade for higher maxJobs.

FAQ and troubleshooting

A run returned 0 records. Why? The filter combination matched nothing. Loosen filters (for example remove locations or levels), or check the exact category and short-name spelling. Zero-result runs are not charged.

How do I get only remote jobs? Set locations to Flexible / Remote, or set a keyword of remote. The remote output field is also true when a location names remote or flexible work.

How do I target one company? Pass its profile short name in companyNames, for example bankofamerica. The short name is the slug in the company's The Muse profile URL.

Why is companyTwitter null? The company did not list a Twitter/X handle on its The Muse profile. Missing source values are returned as null, never invented.

How do I get contact emails? Turn on enrichContacts. For each result without an email the add-on tries to find a public business contact email and name. It is a paid add-on and billed separately.

Is this an official The Muse tool? No. This actor is independent and has no affiliation with The Muse. It reads only data that is publicly available on The Muse. Use it in accordance with The Muse terms of service.
