Glassdoor Jobs + Employer Rating

Glassdoor job listings with the employer's star rating on the same row — no second run. About 4 in 5 rows carry one. Set a row cap and a deadline and the run stops exactly there; blocked pages, empty searches, repeated listings and listings we could not read come back with an honest status and are never charged.

Every rival makes you run twice: once for the job cards, once for the company's rating. Here employerRating sits on the job row, at no extra request and no extra charge.

From $1.20/1,000 job listings — all-inclusive pay per event, no start fee, charged only on delivery.

Every row carries charged and missReason, so you can reconcile the invoice from the dataset itself without opening the console. Only rows with charged: true were billed.

Browse the full live example dataset → — one real run, unedited: 30 delivered listings, 26 of them carrying the employer's star rating, and 60 repeated listings that were skipped and charged once. The last row is the run's own summary.

Plus one search row per search term and country site — query, country, delivered, outcome — and one summary row with delivered, stoppedBy, resumeCursor and chargedEvents.

jobUrl is rebuilt from the listing's own id and carries no ad or tracking token, so it is safe to use as a join key and it will still resolve next month.

Optional:   countries          (array of ISO-2, default ["US"] — each is its own search)
            minEmployerRating  (1-5 — keeps only employers rated at least this)
            postedWithinDays   (integer, 1-30)
            remoteOnly         (boolean, default false — filtered rows are never charged)
            includeEmployerProfiles (boolean, default false — one profile row per unique
                               employer, charged per delivered profile; see pricing tab)
            maxItems           (integer, default 100 — hard cap for the whole run)
            maxPagesPerSearch  (integer, default 5 — the walk stops early on repeats)
            maxRunSeconds      (integer, default 900 — clean stop, never a timeout kill)
Charges:    job-listing        once per delivered job listing.
            employer-profile   once per delivered employer profile — only when
                               includeEmployerProfiles is on. Nothing else.
Note:       omit a field to use its default — do NOT send null.

The employer rating, and the honest number on it

The rating is on the same payload as the job card, so it costs nothing extra. It is not on every row: measured across three cleared result pages, 74 of 90 rows carried one — about 4 in 5. The rest are employers Glassdoor has no rating for, and those rows report employerRating: null rather than a zero.

minEmployerRating filters on it. Rows it removes are never fetched twice and never charged.

Employer profiles (optional add-on)

Turn on Include employer profiles and each unique employer among your delivered listings gets one extra row read from its Glassdoor profile page:

{
  "employerName": "ITV",
  "overallRating": 3.9,
  "ratingCount": 682,
  "recommendToFriendPct": 73,
  "ceoName": "Carolyn McCall",
  "ceoApprovalPct": 69,
  "glassdoorEmployerId": "10157",
  "profileUrl": "https://www.glassdoor.com/Overview/Working-at-ITV-EI_IE10157.11,14.htm",
  "charged": true
}

One profile per employer per run, however many of its listings you collected — 30 listings from one employer is one profile row, and it is never fetched or charged twice, including when a run is moved or restarted. Each delivered profile is charged as its own event, shown on the pricing tab — and while the add-on rolls out, delivered profiles are included free: each profile row carries charged: false and says so right on the row. The honest-miss contract is the same as everywhere else in this actor: a profile page that answers with an access check is an uncharged row marked re-runnable, and an employer Glassdoor has no rating for is an uncharged row that says exactly that. Off by default — a run that does not ask for profiles is billed exactly as before.

How many jobs one search returns

About 40 to 50 distinct listings. Glassdoor shows 30 cards per result page, but paging deeper mostly returns the same 30 again: on four independent walks (both the ?p= and the _IP{N} form, up to page 20) the union of unique listing ids landed between 41 and 50.

So this actor de-duplicates by listing id and stops a search once two pages in a row add nothing new — otherwise you would pay for the same 30 jobs five times. A bigger maxItems does not produce more rows on its own: more rows come from more search terms and more country sites. The summary row repeats this every run.

Searching one city

Glassdoor encodes a location as an internal id inside the URL, not as a plain city name. Rather than guess it, run the search you want on Glassdoor, then paste that URL into queries — the location, radius and any filters you set come with it. A pasted search keeps its own country and is not crossed with your countries list.

Country sites

countries picks Glassdoor's own country sites. glassdoor.com and glassdoor.co.uk are verified end to end; Canada, Ireland, Australia, New Zealand, India and Singapore use the identical search grammar. location.country is the country site the listing was found on — Glassdoor's card prints a city line, not a country, so nothing is geocoded or guessed.

Salary, exactly as Glassdoor prints it

salaryText is the string on the page. salary is our parse of it. salaryIsGlassdoorEstimate tells you whether the number is Glassdoor's own model or the employer's own figure — Glassdoor labels these "(Glassdoor est.)" and "(Employer provided)", and no rival surfaces the difference. When a listing has no salary at all, both stay null rather than being estimated.

What you are never charged for

situation	missReason	run status
Glassdoor answered with an access check	CHALLENGED	SUCCEEDED — re-runnable, and the row says so
Glassdoor rate-limited us	THROTTLED	SUCCEEDED — re-runnable
Glassdoor returned a page we could not read	SOURCE_UNAVAILABLE	SUCCEEDED — the row says it is on us
The search ran and matched nothing	CLEAN_EMPTY	SUCCEEDED — a real answer
A listing whose card we could not read	SOURCE_UNAVAILABLE	SUCCEEDED — reported as its own row, never dropped
A listing repeated on a later result page	—	never charged twice
A row your filters removed	—	never charged
A search term or URL we could not read	USER_INPUT	SUCCEEDED — the row names the fix
Your own maxItems / maxRunSeconds / cost cap	STOPPED_AT_LIMIT	SUCCEEDED — summary row + resumeCursor

We never guess. An access check is reported as an access check, not as "no jobs found" — a temporary problem is never dressed up as a permanent verdict, and it is never charged.

This actor may fail when Glassdoor changes things. The two you are most likely to see are CHALLENGED (Glassdoor answered with a Cloudflare access check) and SOURCE_UNAVAILABLE (a page we could not read as results). Both ship as a row with charged: false, the run still SUCCEEDS, and the row says whether re-running helps.

What one job listing costs

One event per delivered job listing — no start fee, no per-search fee, no per-page fee, and no upcharge for the employer rating on the row. The optional employer-profile row is its own separately priced event, charged only when you turn it on and only per profile actually delivered (see the pricing tab).

The store header shows the Gold price. The whole ladder is printed here because an actor whose promise is billing honesty cannot have an undisclosed tier ladder.

Limits are hard limits

maxItems, maxPagesPerSearch and maxRunSeconds stop the run exactly where you set them. The run still finishes successfully, the summary row names which limit bound, and resumeCursor lists the searches that were not reached — so you continue from there instead of paying to re-walk what you already have.

FAQ

Why did I get 45 rows when I asked for 200? Because you gave one search term. See "How many jobs one search returns" — add terms or country sites, not a bigger cap.

Can I paste a Glassdoor search URL? Yes, and it is the way to search a specific city. A link to a single job posting or a company overview page is refused with a guidance row that says what to paste instead.

Why is employerRating empty on some rows? Because Glassdoor has no rating for that employer. About one row in five. It is null, never a zero, so an average over the column is not silently wrong.

Is the salary real? salaryIsGlassdoorEstimate answers that per row. false means the employer published it; true means Glassdoor modelled it.

Does {} charge anything? No. With no search terms the run returns uncharged sample rows that show the exact output shape, and it contacts Glassdoor not at all.

How do I get this into n8n, Make or a sheet? Run it and read the dataset — one row per job, stable column names, charged on every row.

Honesty contract

Glassdoor sits behind an access check that clears for some requests and not others. When a search cannot be completed, it comes back with an honest status, marked re-runnable, and never charged.

Two runs started back to back can refuse each other — the access check reacts to how recently that route was hit, not to who is asking. If a run comes back with CHALLENGED rows, leave a few minutes and run it again; you were not charged for the attempt. Issues are answered in about three hours during working hours.
