Limitations

• UK-focused — Reed.co.uk is primarily a UK job board.
• Some salary fields are approximate or shown as "Competitive" by the employer.
• Full descriptions require visiting each detail page, which adds a small amount of time per listing.

Compared to alternatives

• vs. other Apify Store scrapers: Very limited competition for Reed specifically.
• vs. Reed's own API: Reed offers an API but it's gated to registered recruiters/partners. This actor is the open alternative for research and analytics use cases.

Pairs well with Indeed Scraper and LinkedIn Jobs Scraper for broader UK job coverage.

FAQ

Can I target a specific UK city? Yes — pass a city name in location (e.g., "london", "manchester", "edinburgh") or "remote" for remote roles.

How fresh is the data? Pulled live at run time — as fresh as Reed.co.uk itself.
