Company Hiring Signals Scraper | Open Roles, ATS & New Jobs by Domain

Give it a list of company domains (or careers / ATS URLs) and get back who is hiring, for what, where and how fast — straight from each company's applicant tracking system (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee, Workday). One company-signal row per company (open roles, roles by function, remote share, hiring velocity, new roles since your last run) plus one job row per open role. HTTP-only, pay per result ($1.60 / 1,000 jobs · $4 / 1,000 company signals · $0.001 start), MCP-ready. No API key, no login, no proxies.

Who uses it and why

• Sales / SDR teams & agencies — a company that just opened 5 SDR roles is buying sales tooling; 12 new data-engineering roles = infra budget. Feed your account list, get the hiring signal, prioritize outreach. Pair with Contact Details Scraper for emails.
• Recruiting agencies — find which target accounts are actively hiring for your specialty (keywords: ["account executive"], postedWithinDays: 14) and pitch them first.
• Job boards & aggregators — clean, normalized postings (title, department, location, remote, type, posted date, salary when disclosed, apply URL) from career sites, without scraping HTML.
• Investors / analysts / competitive intel — headcount intent by function and location for a watchlist of companies, refreshed daily with onlyNew.
• AI agents — "Which of these 50 companies is hiring salespeople in London right now?" is a single Actor call via MCP.

How it finds the jobs

1. Direct ATS URL — boards.greenhouse.io/x, jobs.lever.co/x, jobs.ashbyhq.com/x, jobs.smartrecruiters.com/X, x.recruitee.com, x.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/Site are used as-is.
2. Domain / website URL — fetches the homepage, follows the careers link (up to 2 hops), and looks for ATS references (embeds, links, API calls).
3. Slug guess — if the site hides its ATS, tries the domain label on Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Recruitee and SmartRecruiters and keeps it only when a real board with jobs comes back (flagged discovery: "slug-guess").
4. Jobs are read from the ATS's public JSON API (Workday via its cxs endpoint, paginated) — the same data the career site renders, so fields are exact.

Companies with no detectable / supported ATS (custom career sites, iCIMS, Jobvite, SuccessFactors, Workable without a public list) produce a free company-not-found row with the careers URL that was found, so you know what to check by hand.

Input

Field	Type	Default	Notes
companies	list	4 demo companies	Domains, website / careers URLs or ATS board URLs, one per line. Duplicates are merged.
keywords	list	–	Keep roles whose title / department / team contains any keyword (case-insensitive).
excludeKeywords	list	–	Drop roles matching any of these.
locations	list	–	Substring match on location / country. Remote matches remote roles.
remoteOnly	boolean	false	Only remote roles.
postedWithinDays	integer	0	0 = no age filter. Workday dates are approximate ("Posted 3 Days Ago").
maxJobsPerCompany	integer	200	Cap before filters (max 5,000). Big employers list 1,000+ roles.
includeJobs	boolean	true	Push one row per role (charged as job). Off = signals only.
includeCompanySignal	boolean	true	Push one row per company with a found board (charged as company-signal).
includeDescription	boolean	false	Full plain-text description (≤ 5,000 chars) instead of a 500-char snippet. Not available from Workday / SmartRecruiters list APIs.
onlyNew	boolean	false	Monitor mode — remembers job ids per board in a named key-value store; later runs push only new roles and fill newRoles.

Cost of that run (4 demo companies, 200-role cap): 4 signals × $0.004 + ~420 jobs × $0.0016 + $0.001 start ≈ $0.69. Signals-only run (includeJobs: false) for 100 companies ≈ $0.40.

Schedule it (hiring monitor)

Create a Schedule in Apify Console (daily is the sweet spot — ATS boards change a few times a day) with your account list and onlyNew: true. Each run then returns only roles that appeared since the last run plus the updated company-signal rows (newRoles > 0 = the account just opened positions). Push the dataset to Google Sheets, Slack or your CRM with an integration, or read it via API:

https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/tactful_anvil~company-hiring-signals-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=YOUR_TOKEN

Example input for an SDR team selling to sales orgs:

{ "companies": ["stripe.com", "linear.app", "gopuff.com", "https://nvidia.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/NVIDIAExternalCareerSite"],
  "keywords": ["account executive", "sdr", "bdr", "sales development", "revenue"], "postedWithinDays": 14, "onlyNew": true }

Use with AI agents (MCP)

Add the Actor to your Apify MCP server (https://mcp.apify.com with tools=tactful_anvil/company-hiring-signals-scraper) and ask: "Which of these companies are hiring engineers in Europe this month?" — the agent passes the domains, sets keywords / locations / postedWithinDays, and reads the company-signal rows first (cheap), then jobs for the interesting ones. Deterministic JSON, stable field names, one row per fact — no HTML for the agent to interpret.

Limits & honesty

• Supported ATS with public list APIs: Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, SmartRecruiters, Recruitee, Workday. Workable is detected (vendor + board URL in the free row) but its list API is not public. iCIMS, Jobvite, SuccessFactors, Taleo, BambooHR, Personio and fully custom career sites are reported as company-not-found — free.
• Slug guessing can pick a same-named company on a shared board host; rows are flagged discovery: "slug-guess" so you can review them.
• Workday list pages give relative dates ("Posted 3 Days Ago") and no department; descriptions require the job page (not fetched).
• postedAt reflects what the ATS exposes (Greenhouse first_published, Lever createdAt, Ashby publishedAt, SmartRecruiters releasedDate, Recruitee published_at).
• Rate: ~4 companies in parallel, one request per board page. 100 companies ≈ 1–3 minutes.
