🐛 Troubleshooting

No jobs returned

• Broaden the keyword or location, or remove restrictive filters.
• Confirm the location format (City, ST or a ZIP).

Fewer results than expected

• FREE runs are capped at 25 jobs. Upgrade for unlimited.
• Some searches simply have few live postings.

⚖️ Is it legal to scrape data?

Our actors are ethical and do not extract private user data. They only return job postings that employers have chosen to publish publicly. We therefore believe that our actors, when used for ethical purposes by Apify users, are safe.

However, your results could contain personal data (for example, a hiring-manager name or email an employer published in a posting). Personal data is protected by the GDPR in the European Union and by other regulations worldwide. You should not process personal data unless you have a legitimate reason to do so. If you're unsure, consult your lawyers. You can also read Apify's blog post on the legality of web scraping.

Note on data sources: This is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by ZipRecruiter. "ZipRecruiter" and all related names and trademarks belong to their respective owners; their use here is descriptive only. The actor returns only publicly available job-posting data.
