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. For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt). # README ## MyCareersFuture Singapore Jobs Scraper Scrapes job listings from [MyCareersFuture.gov.sg](https://www.mycareersfuture.gov.sg), Singapore's national job portal operated by Workforce Singapore. Uses the **official REST API** (`api.mycareersfuture.gov.sg/v2/jobs`) directly — no browser required, no HTML parsing. Pure HTTP, fast and stable. ### Features - Keyword search across 90,000+ active Singapore jobs - Filter by job category, employment type, salary range - Sort by newest posting date or highest salary - Full field extraction including SSOC codes, engagement metrics, company details - Deduplication across multiple keyword runs ### Input | Field | Type | Default | Description | |-------|------|---------|-------------| | `keywords` | array | `[""]` | Search keywords.

will be `null` for jobs with `isHideSalary: true`. - **Category filter**: The API applies an OR filter — jobs matching any of the listed categories are returned. - **Total jobs**: The portal has ~90,000–95,000 active listings at any given time. Use `maxResults: 0` to retrieve all. - **Rate limiting**: The scraper applies light jitter delays between pages to be respectful. No proxies needed. - **SSOC codes**: Can be looked up in the [MOM SSOC classification](https://www.singstat.gov.sg/standards/standards-and-classifications/ssoc). - **SSEC codes**: Education and field-of-study codes from the [SSEC classification](https://www.singstat.gov.sg/standards/standards-and-classifications/ssec). # Actor input Schema ## `keywords` (type: `array`): Job keywords to search.
