## 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/docs.md):

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

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.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/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 Jobs Scraper finds public job listings by keyword and location without requiring a LinkedIn login. Export job titles, companies, locations, posting dates, IDs, and direct links for recruiting, job-board aggregation, hiring intelligence, and market research.

Independent tool. Not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by LinkedIn.

### Search LinkedIn jobs by keyword and location

Enter a job title, role, skill, or other search phrase. Add an optional city, region, country, or `Remote` location, then choose how many jobs to save. One run can return up to 500 matching listings.

```json
{
  "keywords": "software engineer",
  "location": "Berlin, Germany",
  "maxJobs": 100
}
````

Use focused searches for the most relevant results. Run separate keyword and location combinations when you need consistent datasets across roles or markets.

#### High-quality starter searches

```json
{"keywords":"data analyst","location":"Berlin, Germany","maxJobs":25}
{"keywords":"remote Python developer","location":"Remote","maxJobs":25}
{"keywords":"sales manager","location":"United States","maxJobs":25}
```

Start with 10–25 rows to validate relevance. Increase `maxJobs` only after confirming the search is producing the type of jobs you need.

### LinkedIn job data you can export

Each successful row contains the LinkedIn job ID, title, company name, location, direct listing URL, posted and listed dates when available, the search keyword and location that found it, and the collection time. Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel or connect the dataset to a job board, spreadsheet, dashboard, or workflow.

### Popular use cases

- Build a feed of vacancies for a role or market.
- Research company hiring activity and expansion signals.
- Compare job demand across locations.
- Create source data for recruiting and talent intelligence.
- Collect public listings for a specialized job board.

### Pricing

Pricing is based on successful job rows saved to the dataset when result-based pricing applies. Empty searches do not create paid job results. Check the Pricing tab for the current rate, set `maxJobs` to control output volume, and use a maximum run spend when you need a fixed budget.

### Limitations

Results depend on public LinkedIn job listings available for the chosen search at collection time. This Actor does not return full job descriptions, salary details, applicant counts, recruiter profiles, or application-form contents. Location matching follows the source results and may include nearby or broadly related locations. Listings can be removed or changed after collection.

### Frequently asked questions

#### Do I need a LinkedIn account or cookies?

No. The Actor collects publicly available job-search results and does not ask for login credentials.

#### How many jobs can I collect per run?

Set `maxJobs` from 1 to 500. The actual number depends on matching public listings.

#### Can I search for remote jobs?

Yes. Enter `Remote` in the location field. Review returned locations because public search matching can be broader than the exact text supplied.

#### Can I monitor new job listings?

Yes. Save a focused search as a task and schedule recurring runs. Use the job ID to compare results between collections.
