GulfTalent Scraper: Gulf and Middle East jobs with salaries and full descriptions

GulfTalent Scraper collects job posts from GulfTalent.com, one of the main job boards for the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Oman, Bahrain, Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon, without an account, cookies or a browser. Search by keyword and filter by country, city, job category, industry, seniority and job type, the same filters the site offers. Each job comes back as one clean row: title, company, city and country, seniority, job type, category, industry, posting date and, with full details on (the default), the complete description, the published salary range, the closing date, the office address, the nationality and gender requirements, Arabic fluency and the job reference.

It is used to monitor hiring demand and salaries across the GCC, to find companies that are hiring in Dubai, Riyadh or Doha for recruitment and B2B outreach, to feed job alerts and aggregators, and to research the Gulf labour market by role, industry and seniority.

At a glance

What	Price
Job delivered (full details included)	US$ 1.00 per 1,000 jobs on the Free plan (US$ 0.001 each)
Bronze / Silver / Gold and above	US$ 0.95 / 0.90 / 0.85 per 1,000 jobs
Run start	US$ 0.005 per run

• 500 accountant jobs in the UAE with full descriptions = US$ 0.505 on the Free plan, start included.
• The job page with the description and salary is included in the same price: there is no extra event for details.
• Error rows, duplicates and closed jobs are never charged. maxItems is a hard cap, and a spending limit set on the run stops it cleanly with everything delivered so far.
• Runs on the default Apify datacenter proxy, which is enough for GulfTalent. No residential proxy cost.

Errors you may see

Every error is a row with errorCode and is never charged:

errorCode	Meaning
INVALID_URL	Not a GulfTalent job or search link
INVALID_INPUT	A number field has a wrong value
UNKNOWN_FILTER	A country, city, category, industry, level or job type GulfTalent does not have; that filter is skipped
NO_RESULTS	The search and filters match no job
NOT_FOUND, JOB_CLOSED	The job link no longer exists or GulfTalent shows it as closed
TIMEOUT, NETWORK, HTTP_5xx	GulfTalent did not answer after 4 tries with fresh connections; run it again

A job whose page could not be opened after 4 tries is still delivered with its list fields and a detailsError code.

FAQ

Do I need a GulfTalent account? No. Everything comes from public GulfTalent pages, without login or cookies.

Why is the salary empty on many jobs? GulfTalent shows the salary only when the employer chooses to publish it. The Actor exports exactly what the job page shows and never a hidden figure.

What does includeDetails: false change? The run skips the job pages and is several times faster, but rows have no description, salary, closing date, address or requirements. The price per job is the same.

Does it return recruiter names or contacts? No. Only job and company data. Emails and phone numbers written inside descriptions are replaced with [contact removed].

Is it legal? The Actor reads public pages only. You are responsible for how you use the data under the laws that apply to you.

Something broke or a field is missing? Open an issue on the Actor page; issues are answered within a day.

Limitations

• relevance is GulfTalent's own ranking, which matches related titles too (a search for "civil engineer" also returns other engineering roles). Add a category or use precise titles to narrow it.
• newest sorts up to 3,000 matching jobs; very broad searches beyond that keep GulfTalent's order.
• Applying to jobs needs a GulfTalent account and is not done by the Actor. validThrough is the date the employer set; some jobs stay open after it.

Changelog
