## 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

## LinkedIn Jobs Scraper — Search, Filter & Full Details

Collect **LinkedIn job listings at scale** by keyword and location — no login, no
cookies, no account needed. Get the full job details: company, location, salary,
posting date, seniority, employment type, job function, industries, applicant
count, the complete job description, and the apply link.

Export everything to **JSON, CSV, or Excel**, or pull it straight from the API.

---

### What you get per job

| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| `title` | Senior Software Engineer |
| `company` / `companyUrl` | Notion · linkedin.com/company/notion |
| `location` / `isRemote` | San Francisco, CA · true |
| `salary` | $150,000/yr – $190,000/yr *(when listed)* |
| `postedDate` | 2026-06-01 |
| `seniority` | Mid-Senior level |
| `employmentType` | Full-time |
| `jobFunction` | Engineering and Information Technology |
| `industries` | Software Development |
| `applicants` | 177 |
| `descriptionText` / `descriptionHtml` | Full job description |
| `companyLogo`, `url`, `jobId` | … |

### How to use it

1. Add one or more **search keywords** (e.g. `software engineer`, `registered nurse`).
2. Set a **location** (e.g. `United States`, `London`, `Remote`) — or several under **Locations** to collect more.
3. (Optional) Filter by **date posted, job type, experience level, remote/on-site**.
4. Run it. Results stream into the dataset as they're found.

#### Get more than ~1,000 jobs per search

LinkedIn caps any single search at roughly 1,000 results. Two ways to go bigger:

- **Locations** — add multiple cities/regions; every keyword runs against each.
- **Maximize per location** — use **"Maximize results per location"** to re-run the
  same search across experience levels, job types, date windows, etc. and merge the
  unique results (several times more for a single location).

### Filters

- **Date posted** — past 24 hours / week / month
- **Job type** — full-time, part-time, contract, temporary, internship, …
- **Experience level** — internship → executive
- **Remote / on-site** — remote, on-site, hybrid
- **Sort by** — most relevant or most recent

### Input example

```json
{
  "queries": ["software engineer"],
  "location": "United States",
  "datePosted": "week",
  "experienceLevel": ["mid-senior level"],
  "scrapeDescription": true,
  "maxItems": 1000
}
````

### Output example

```json
{
  "jobId": "4406118990",
  "title": "Software Engineer, New Grad",
  "company": "Notion",
  "companyUrl": "https://www.linkedin.com/company/notion",
  "location": "San Francisco, CA",
  "isRemote": false,
  "postedDate": "2026-06-01",
  "salary": null,
  "seniority": "Not Applicable",
  "employmentType": "Full-time",
  "jobFunction": "Engineering and Information Technology",
  "industries": "Software Development",
  "applicants": 200,
  "descriptionText": "Who We Are\nNotion is the collaborative workspace…",
  "url": "https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/software-engineer-new-grad-at-notion-4406118990"
}
```

### Notes

- **No login or cookies required** — only public job data is collected.
- A proxy is recommended at higher volume (the default works out of the box); you
  can also plug in your own proxies.
- `salary` is only present when the employer publishes it on the listing.
- Built to be reliable: failed fetches are automatically retried so your dataset
  comes back complete.

### FAQ

**Do I need a LinkedIn account?** No. It only reads public listings.

**Can it get full descriptions?** Yes — on by default. Turn it off for a lighter,
faster export of the core fields.

**Which countries?** Any LinkedIn location — US, UK, EU, remote, worldwide.

**What formats can I export?** JSON, CSV, Excel, HTML table, or via API.
