⚠️ Known limitations

• applyUrl not available — JobStreet does not expose direct application URLs; the listing URL is the entry point.
• Salary is often null — many listings in PH and ID do not display salary information; salaryMin / salaryMax will be null for those.
• bulletPoints sparse — only sponsored/premium listings include highlight bullet points.
• workArrangement — not available when using startUrls mode (list-page only field).
• HK / TH not supported — those markets use a different platform architecture and are not covered by this actor.
• Max 10,000 results per search — the platform caps paginated results at 100 pages × 100 items. Use multiple targeted keyword+location runs for larger extractions.
