---

What Is Remotive.com?

Remotive.com is a specialized job board for remote positions across tech, marketing, design, and business roles. With thousands of active listings updated daily, it serves as a primary source for distributed teams and remote-first talent. Manually scraping search results to gather competitive intelligence or populate job aggregators is repetitive and error-prone — the Remotive Jobs Search Scraper automates extraction from Remotive's search pages, delivering clean job records in bulk.

Input Format

The scraper accepts a JSON configuration object:

{
  "urls": [
    "https://remotive.com/remote-jobs/et-full-time"
  ],
  "ignore_url_failures": true,
  "max_items_per_url": 200
}

Field	Description	Example
urls	Remotive search results page URLs	https://remotive.com/remote-jobs/et-full-time
max_items_per_url	Max job listings per URL (1–200)	200

• Combine multiple filters: /remote-jobs/design/full-time
• Append pagination if needed: ?page=2
• Each URL can return up to 200 job listings, depending on page length

How to Use

1. Find search results URLs — Browse Remotive.com and apply filters (category, job type, seniority). Copy the filtered search page URL.
2. Add URLs to configuration — Paste one or more URLs into the urls array. Example:

"urls": [
     "https://remotive.com/remote-jobs/et-full-time",
     "https://remotive.com/remote-jobs/software-development",
     "https://remotive.com/remote-jobs/marketing"
   ]

3. Set item limit — Choose max_items_per_url (typically 20–200 depending on speed vs. volume needs).
4. Enable resilience — Keep ignore_url_failures: true for bulk runs to skip broken links.
5. Run and export — Start the scraper, then download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

Best Practices:

• Use specific category URLs to control data relevance.
• For large datasets, split URLs into multiple runs to avoid timeouts.
• Monitor the job count per URL — if lower than expected, the page may have pagination.
