## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.
Actors are written with capital "A".

## 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.
The best way to integrate Actors is as follows.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Job Postings Scraper (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby)

Scrape **live job postings straight from company career pages** across the three biggest ATS platforms — **Greenhouse, Lever, and Ashby** — as clean, normalized, AI-ready JSON. No LinkedIn, no login, no API key: this pulls directly from the same public job-board feeds that power company career sites.

### What does this Actor do?

Give it a list of company career-page slugs and get back every open role, normalized into one consistent schema:

- 💼 **Job title, department, team, location, employment type**
- 🌍 **Remote flag** — auto-detected from location/workplace type
- 🔗 **Direct application URL** for each job
- 📅 **Posted/updated date**
- 📝 **Full job description** (optional)
- 🏢 **Works across Greenhouse, Lever, and Ashby** — auto-detects which ATS a company uses
- 🤖 **AI-ready JSON** for job boards, HR analytics, market research, and AI agents (via the Apify MCP server)

### Why scrape company career pages instead of LinkedIn?

LinkedIn scrapers break constantly and risk account bans. Company ATS feeds (Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby) are **public, stable JSON APIs** — the canonical source, updated in real time, with no anti-bot walls. Recruiters, HR-tech builders, labor-market researchers, and sales teams use this to:

- Build **niche job boards** for a specific industry or role
- Track **hiring signals** (which companies are growing which teams)
- Monitor **competitor headcount** and open roles
- Feed **real-time labor-market data** into models and dashboards

### Input example

```json
{
  "companies": ["greenhouse:stripe", "ashby:openai", "lever:mistral", "coinbase"],
  "titleKeywords": ["engineer", "data"],
  "locationKeywords": ["Remote", "New York"],
  "remoteOnly": false,
  "maxJobsPerCompany": 200
}
````

- Use `ats:slug` (e.g. `greenhouse:stripe`) to be explicit, or just `coinbase` to **auto-detect** across all three platforms.
- The slug is the company's job-board handle — the part in their careers URL (e.g. `boards.greenhouse.io/stripe` → `stripe`).

### Output example

```json
{
  "ats": "greenhouse",
  "company": "stripe",
  "jobId": "6841234",
  "title": "Integration Engineer, Professional Services",
  "department": "Professional Services",
  "location": "Chicago",
  "remote": false,
  "employmentType": null,
  "url": "https://stripe.com/jobs/listing/...",
  "updatedAt": "2026-06-30T12:00:00Z"
}
```

### Filters

- **titleKeywords** — keep only jobs whose title matches
- **locationKeywords** — keep only matching locations
- **departments** — keep only matching departments/teams
- **remoteOnly** — remote jobs only
- **includeDescription** — add full description text
- **maxJobsPerCompany** — cap per company

### How much does it cost?

Pay per job returned — a small fee per posting. Scraping 1,000 jobs costs a fraction of a dollar. No subscription.

### FAQ

**How do I find a company's slug?** Look at their careers page URL: `jobs.lever.co/mistral` → `mistral`, `jobs.ashbyhq.com/openai` → `openai`, `boards.greenhouse.io/stripe` → `stripe`.

**Which ATS platforms are supported?** Greenhouse, Lever, and Ashby — together they power a large share of tech and startup hiring. More platforms (Workday, SmartRecruiters) can be added on request.

**Is this legal?** It reads public job-board APIs that companies publish specifically to distribute their openings. No personal data, no login.

**Can AI agents use it?** Yes — works with the Apify MCP server so Claude, ChatGPT, and other agents can call it and pay per use.
