Dice Scraper — Tech Jobs, Salaries & Companies

Scrape job ads from Dice (dice.com), the main US job board for software, IT and data roles, by keyword and location, with Dice's own filters (posted date, employment type, remote / hybrid / on-site, employer type, Easy Apply, willing to sponsor, company, radius), or from any Dice search URL. For every job you get the title, company with logo and Dice company profile link, location split into city / state, workplace type, employment type (full-time, contract, third party...), whether the employer is a direct hire or a recruiter, the pay text and a parsed min / max / period, posted and updated dates, Easy Apply and visa sponsorship flags and the summary. Optionally it also opens each job page for the full description, the skills list, contract types (W2, Corp-to-Corp, Independent) and term, travel, Dice position id and the recruiter shown on the page.

No Dice account, no cookies, no browser. Fast: 100 jobs per request. Export to JSON, CSV, Excel or use the API.

How to scrape Dice jobs by keyword and location

1. Enter one or more Keywords (job title, skill or company) and a Location such as New York, NY, Austin, TX, California or a ZIP code like 10001. Leave the location empty for the whole US, or type Remote for remote jobs only.
2. Optionally set filters: radius, posted in the last day / 3 days / 7 days, employment type, workplace (remote, hybrid, on-site), employer type (direct hire / recruiter), Easy Apply only, willing to sponsor only, company, and sort by date.
3. Set Max jobs and run.

{
  "keywords": ["data engineer", "python developer"],
  "location": "Austin, TX",
  "radius": 50,
  "postedDate": "SEVEN",
  "employmentTypes": ["CONTRACTS"],
  "workplaceTypes": ["Remote", "Hybrid"],
  "maxItems": 500
}

Like the Dice website, a city or state search also includes remote jobs from anywhere; turn off Include remote jobs in location searches to get only jobs in or near the location.

You can also paste Dice URLs into Start URLs: search pages with any filters you set on the site (both https://www.dice.com/jobs?q=... and https://www.dice.com/jobs/q-python-l-new+york%2c+ny-jobs style), and single job pages, which are returned with full details:

  "startUrls": [
    { "url": "https://www.dice.com/jobs?q=devops&location=Chicago,%20IL&filters.employmentType=CONTRACTS&filters.postedDate=THREE" },

    { "url": "https://www.dice.com/job-detail/d2f2fe21-63b1-43fa-ad08-1bf12d65364f" }
  ],
  "maxItems": 300

How many jobs can I get per search?

Dice serves at most 10,000 jobs for any one search (positions beyond that are refused). With Get more than Dice's 10,000 results per search (on by default) the actor splits a bigger search into narrower ones that together cover it: by employer type, Easy Apply, remote / not remote, employment type and, for searches without a location, US state; a slice that is still too big is read in both sort orders. Duplicates are removed. In tests, "java" across the US (Dice: 12,541 matches) returned 12,494 distinct jobs from 129 requests in 17 seconds, and every job in California (Dice: 28,004 including remote) returned 26,352 from 373 requests in under a minute.

Can I get the full job description, skills and recruiter?

Yes. Turn on Include full job description. For each job the actor opens the public job page and adds the full description (plain text and HTML), the skills list, contract types (W2, Corp-to-Corp, Independent) and contract term, travel requirement, the Dice position id, postal code, the date the ad expires, and the recruiter card ("Contact the job poster": name, title, Dice profile link) when the page shows one. It is one extra request per job. Single job URLs in Start URLs always come with details. E-mail addresses and apply links that Dice only reveals in its apply flow are not collected.

Does it work without login? Is a proxy needed?

It works without any login or cookies. It uses the same public JSON search API the Dice website calls, and the public job pages. Apify's datacenter proxy (the default) works; no residential proxy is needed.

Monitor changes on a schedule

Turn on Only new or changed items to watch a search: each run remembers what earlier runs returned and outputs only jobs that are new or whose title or pay text changed. Unchanged jobs are dropped before any job page is opened, so they are not charged. Max jobs then sets how many jobs are checked per run; sort by date so the newest jobs land in that window. Save the input as a task and add a Schedule in Apify (for example daily); give each watch its own Monitoring key if several schedules use the same search. Every output item has changeType (new or changed), and changed jobs have previousValues with the old values, e.g. {"salaryText": "$60 - $65"}.

Pricing

Pay per job: $0.0006 per job ($0.60 per 1,000). With Include full job description (or for a job URL) each job adds a $0.0002 detail event, so $0.80 per 1,000 jobs with descriptions, skills and recruiters. No start fee and no subscription.

Proxy note and cost

The actor runs on Apify's datacenter proxy by default. A search request returns up to 100 jobs and is about 0.15 MB; a job page is about 0.25 MB. Measured platform usage (compute, storage) on top of the per-job price: about $0.005 per 1,000 jobs without details and about $0.02 per 1,000 with details. Speed on the datacenter proxy is about 20 jobs per second from search pages and 1-2 job pages per second with details; Dice also answers requests without a proxy, which is about 4 times faster for job pages (switch the proxy off if you want that). Requests that fail or come back blocked are retried automatically on a new IP.

Is it legal to scrape Dice?

The actor reads only public job ads that anyone can open on Dice without an account: what employers and agencies publish, company names and pay information. It does not log in and does not collect job seekers' data. Job pages sometimes show the recruiter who posted the job (name, title, Dice profile link); that is part of the public page. Contact e-mails and apply links that Dice reveals only in its apply flow are not collected. You are responsible for using the data in line with Dice's terms and the privacy laws that apply to you (for example CCPA or GDPR when you process personal data from ads).
