## 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.

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

## LinkedIn Job Radar

Search LinkedIn jobs by keywords and locations. Get full descriptions, seniority level, employment type, and industries — no login required.

### What it does

- Searches LinkedIn's public job board using keyword + location combinations
- Visits each job page to extract the full description, seniority level, employment type, job function, industries, and apply URL
- Filters results by location, company name, or remote/hybrid work
- Supports multiple keywords and locations in a single run

### Output fields

Each result includes:

| Field | Example |
|---|---|
| `job_id` | `4195830261` |
| `title` | `Software Engineer` |
| `company` | `adesso SE` |
| `location` | `Düsseldorf, North Rhine-Westphalia, Germany` |
| `posted_at` | `2 days ago` |
| `description` | Full job description (2,000–7,000+ chars) |
| `seniorityLevel` | `Mid-Senior level` |
| `employmentType` | `Full-time` |
| `jobFunction` | `Engineering and Information Technology` |
| `industries` | `IT Services and IT Consulting` |
| `applyUrl` | Direct apply link |
| `url` | Canonical LinkedIn job URL |
| `source` | `linkedin` |
| `scraped_at` | ISO timestamp |

> Turn off **Scrape job details** to skip the detail page visit. You'll get titles, companies, locations, and URLs much faster — but no full description or metadata.

### Built-in filters

- **Location** — strict post-scrape matching ensures only jobs in your target city appear (LinkedIn's own location filter is loose)
- **Company name** — substring match on company field
- **Remote-first** — keeps only remote/hybrid listings based on keyword detection
- **Date window** — last 24 hours or last 3 days

### Example input

#### Quick search (5 results with full details)

```json
{
  "keywords": ["Software Engineer"],
  "locations": ["Düsseldorf"],
  "maximumItems": 5,
  "scrapeDetails": true
}
````

#### Multi-keyword monitoring run

```json
{
  "keywords": [
    "cyber security",
    "information security",
    "soc analyst",
    "security engineer"
  ],
  "locations": ["Germany", "Berlin", "Munich"],
  "dateFilter": "LAST_3_DAYS",
  "maximumItems": 200,
  "maxListingPages": 20,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "groups": ["RESIDENTIAL"],
    "countryCode": "DE"
  }
}
```

#### Fast listing-only scan (no detail pages)

```json
{
  "keywords": ["Data Analyst"],
  "locations": ["London"],
  "maximumItems": 100,
  "scrapeDetails": false,
  "dateFilter": "LAST_24_HOURS"
}
```

### Performance tips

- Default settings (50 items, detail scraping ON) finish in ~2 minutes
- Turn off **Scrape job details** for faster runs when you only need titles and links
- Each listing page has ~25 results — set **Listing page cap** accordingly
- Residential proxies are used by default for stability
- The actor gracefully stops before the Apify timeout, so partial results are always saved

### Date filter

`dateFilter` is intentionally capped to:

- `LAST_24_HOURS` — jobs posted in the last 24 hours
- `LAST_3_DAYS` — jobs posted in the last 3 days (default)

No option older than 3 days is supported.

### Use cases

- Job market monitoring with n8n, Make, or Zapier
- Feed into Google Sheets or Airtable for tracking
- Telegram/Slack alerts for new postings
- Salary and hiring trend analysis

# Actor input Schema

## `keywords` (type: `array`):

Add one or more role/skill keywords.

## `keyword` (type: `string`):

Optional fallback keyword. Comma-separated values are also supported.

## `locations` (type: `array`):

City, region, or country names.

## `location` (type: `string`):

Optional fallback location. Comma-separated values are supported.

## `scrapeDetails` (type: `boolean`):

Visit each job page to get the full description, seniority level, employment type, and industries. Slower but much more data.

## `dateFilter` (type: `string`):

Maximum supported recency is 3 days.

## `maximumItems` (type: `integer`):

Maximum output records. Each keyword+location combo crawls listing pages, so higher values take longer.

## `maxListingPages` (type: `integer`):

Maximum listing pages to crawl per keyword+location combo. Each page has ~25 results.

## `maxConcurrency` (type: `integer`):

Crawler concurrency.

## `maxRequestRetries` (type: `integer`):

Retries per request before failing.

## `minListingDelayMs` (type: `integer`):

Minimum pause before parsing list pages.

## `maxListingDelayMs` (type: `integer`):

Maximum pause before parsing list pages.

## `companyName` (type: `string`):

Optional company name filter.

## `remoteWork` (type: `boolean`):

Keep only jobs that look remote/hybrid.

## `proxyConfiguration` (type: `object`):

Proxy setup. Residential proxies recommended for stability.

{
  "keywords": [
    "Cyber Security"
  ],
