## Pricing

from $2.00 / 1,000 results

This Actor is paid per event and usage. You are charged both the fixed price for specific events and for Apify platform usage.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## 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

## Glassdoor Jobs Scraper

Search and extract job listings from Glassdoor by keyword or search URL. One result =
one job listing.

### Why use this actor

- No account, no login, and no API key required
- Job title, employer (with company rating), and location for every listing
- Glassdoor's estimated salary range (10th / 50th / 90th percentile)
- Job type, remote-work options, posting age, and a direct apply/detail link
- Stable JSON output suitable for pipelines, job boards, or market analysis
- Automatic retries and IP switching if a request is temporarily blocked

### How it works

1. You give the actor one or more search keywords (e.g. `software engineer`) or full Glassdoor search URLs.
2. The actor walks the result pages and collects each job listing with its full detail.
3. Results stream into your dataset, ready to download as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

You don't manage scrapers, browsers, or retries — the actor handles all of that.

### Input

```json
{
  "keywords": ["software engineer"],
  "searchUrls": [],
  "maxJobsPerSearch": 100,
  "maxPages": 30,
  "concurrency": 2,
  "proxyConfiguration": { "useApifyProxy": true, "apifyProxyGroups": ["RESIDENTIAL"] }
}
````

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `keywords` | array | Free-text searches; each runs as a separate Glassdoor job search. |
| `searchUrls` | array | Optional full Glassdoor job-search URLs (with location/filters applied). |
| `maxJobsPerSearch` | integer | Stop after this many jobs per search. `0` = no cap. Default 100. |
| `maxPages` | integer | Safety cap on result pages per search. Default 30. |
| `concurrency` | integer | Searches processed in parallel. Default 2. |
| `proxyConfiguration` | object | Proxy settings. Residential is recommended. |

### Output

```json
{
  "_input": "software engineer",
  "_scrapedAt": "2026-06-11T02:11:43Z",
  "recordType": "JOB_LISTING",
  "jobListingId": "1010149033813",

    "id": 404,
    "name": "Lockheed Martin Corporation",
    "shortName": "Lockheed Martin",
    "ratings": { "overallRating": 4.1 },
    "size": "10000+ Employees"
  },
  "locationName": "Uniondale, NY",
  "payCurrency": "USD",
  "payPeriod": "ANNUAL",
  "payPeriodAdjustedPay": { "p10": 88189, "p50": 117176, "p90": 146163 },

}
```

| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `jobListingId` | string | Unique Glassdoor job ID. |
| `jobTitleText` | string | Job title. |
| `employer` | object | Employer name, short name, rating, size, logo. |
| `employerNameFromSearch` | string | Employer name as shown in search. |
| `locationName` | string | Job location. |
| `payPeriod` | string | `ANNUAL`, `HOURLY`, … |
| `payCurrency` | string | Currency of the salary estimate. |
| `payPeriodAdjustedPay` | object | Estimated pay percentiles `p10` / `p50` / `p90`. |
| `jobType` | array | e.g. `Full-time`, `Contract`. |
| `ageInDays` | number | Days since the job was posted. |
| `easyApply` | boolean | Whether Glassdoor easy-apply is available. |
| `seoJobLink` | string | Direct link to the job listing. |

A search that returns nothing yields an `_error` record instead of being dropped.

### Notes

- Salary figures are Glassdoor estimates, not always employer-stated.
- Residential proxy is recommended; the actor switches IP automatically if temporarily blocked.

# Actor input Schema

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

Free-text job searches, e.g. 'software engineer', 'product manager'. Each keyword is run as a separate Glassdoor job search.

## `searchUrls` (type: `array`):

Optional: full Glassdoor job-search URLs (e.g. with location or filters already applied). Used in addition to any keywords above.

## `maxJobsPerSearch` (type: `integer`):

Stop after collecting this many jobs per search. Set 0 for no cap (pages until jobs stop).

## `maxPages` (type: `integer`):

Safety cap on how many result pages to walk per search.

## `concurrency` (type: `integer`):

How many searches to run in parallel. Keep low (1-2) to reduce the chance of being temporarily rate-limited.

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

Proxy settings. Residential proxies are strongly recommended; the actor automatically switches IP if it is temporarily blocked.

## Actor input object example

```json
{
  "keywords": [
    "software engineer"
  ],
  "searchUrls": [],
  "maxJobsPerSearch": 100,
  "maxPages": 30,
  "concurrency": 2,
  "proxyConfiguration": {
    "useApifyProxy": true,
    "apifyProxyGroups": [
      "RESIDENTIAL"
    ]
  }
}
```
