## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

# README

## ATS Job Search: Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby & Workday

Search **jobs from thousands of companies' own career sites** by title, location, remote and posting date. **You don't need a company list.** Type "data engineer", "Remote" and "last 7 days", and get every matching opening from companies hiring on Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby and Workday.

Jobs come straight from employers' applicant tracking systems (ATS), not from aggregators. That means no reposts, no expired listings, and direct links to the company's application page.

### Why this actor

- **Search across companies.** A continuously refreshed index covers thousands of company job boards. Most ATS scrapers make you supply company slugs first; this one searches all of them.
- **Four ATS in one schema.** Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby and Workday results share the same fields.
- **Fast and cheap.** A search scans the whole index in seconds instead of crawling thousands of career pages at run time.
- **Salary ranges.** Returned when the employer publishes them (common on Ashby and Lever). Use *Only jobs with salary* to keep just those.
- **Full descriptions on demand.** Turn on *Include full job description* to fetch the live description, as plain text and HTML, for each result.
- **Monitoring mode.** *Only new jobs since last run* remembers your search and returns only newly posted roles. Schedule it and send alerts to Slack, email or Google Sheets.
- **Smart matching.**
  - Whole-word keywords, so "java" doesn't match "javascript".
  - Exclude keywords.
  - Location text match, e.g. "London", "Germany" or "Remote".
  - Workplace type (remote, hybrid, on-site).
  - Company filter.

### Input example

```json
{
  "keywords": ["data engineer", "analytics engineer"],
  "excludeKeywords": ["intern", "principal"],
  "locations": ["Remote", "United States"],
  "workplaceTypes": ["remote"],
  "postedWithinDays": 3,
  "onlyWithSalary": false,
  "includeDescription": true,
  "onlyNewJobs": false,
  "maxResults": 500
}
```

| Field | What it does |
|---|---|
| `keywords` | Title must contain one of these (whole words, case-insensitive) |
| `excludeKeywords` | Drop titles containing any of these |
| `locations` | Location contains any of these (city, state, country, "Remote") |
| `workplaceTypes` | `remote`, `hybrid`, `onsite` |
| `postedWithinDays` | Only jobs posted in the last N days |
| `companies` | Optional company names or slugs |
| `sources` | Limit to `greenhouse`, `lever`, `ashby`, `workday` |
| `onlyWithSalary` | Keep only jobs with a published salary |
| `includeDescription` | Fetch the full description for each result |
| `onlyNewJobs` | Monitoring: only jobs that appeared since the previous run of the same search |
| `searchDepartment` | Also match keywords against department/team |
| `maxResults` | Newest first; you pay per job returned |

### Output example

```json
{
  "title": "Software Engineer, Compute Foundations",
  "company": "Openai",
  "companySlug": "openai",
  "hiringEntity": null,
  "source": "ashby",
  "location": "San Francisco",
  "locations": ["San Francisco"],
  "country": "United States",
  "workplaceType": "hybrid",
  "department": "Scaling",
  "employmentType": "FullTime",
  "salaryMin": 255000,
  "salaryMax": 490000,
  "salaryCurrency": "USD",
  "salaryInterval": "1 YEAR",
  "salaryText": "$255K - $490K",
  "postedAt": "2026-09-16T23:39:23Z",
  "firstSeenAt": "2026-09-17T07:21:37Z",
  "url": "https://jobs.ashbyhq.com/openai/…",
  "jobId": "ashby:openai:…",
  "description": "About the team …",
  "descriptionHtml": "<p>About the team …</p>",
  "indexUpdatedAt": "2026-09-17T09:00:00Z"
}
```

Field notes:

- `postedAt` is the employer's publish date.
  - Workday only shows relative dates such as "Posted 3 Days Ago", so its `postedAt` is a day, not a time.
  - Workday's "30+ days ago" is `null`.
- `firstSeenAt` is when this index first saw the job.
- `company` comes from the job board. For Lever, Ashby and Workday it is derived from the career-site slug.

### Use cases

- **Job seekers & career coaches:** daily alerts for new roles that fit exact criteria.
- **Recruiters & staffing agencies:** find companies actively hiring for a skill set.
- **Sales & lead generation:** hiring signals, e.g. companies opening data or security teams.
- **Market & salary research:** track demand and published pay ranges by role and location.
- **Job boards & AI agents:** a clean, structured feed of direct employer postings.

### How fresh is the data?

The index is rebuilt several times a day. Every result includes `indexUpdatedAt`. Descriptions requested with *Include full job description* are fetched live at run time.

### Pricing

Pay per job returned, plus a negligible start fee per run. Jobs that don't match your filters are never charged. Set **Max results** or a spending limit to cap cost.

### Notes

- Only public job postings are used. No login and no personal data.
- Coverage grows as new company job boards are discovered. Missing a company you care about? Open an issue with its careers page and it will be added.

# Actor input Schema

Drop jobs whose title contains any of these, e.g. “senior”, “intern”, “manager”.

Keep jobs whose location contains any of these (city, state, country or “Remote”). Example: “London”, “Germany”, “CA”, “Remote”.

## `postedWithinDays` (type: `integer`):

The hosted server signs you in with OAuth on first connect, so no API token belongs in this config. Clients without OAuth support can send an `Authorization: Bearer <APIFY_API_TOKEN>` header instead, using a token from API & Integrations in Apify Console (https://console.apify.com/settings/integrations).
