About this skill

Job Scraper

General job-data sourcing across LinkedIn + Indeed. The bundled script auto-selects the Apify actor path (rich structured fields) when APIFY_API_TOKEN is set, and falls back to a keyless site: web search otherwise. Intent scoring lives in job-posting-intent.

When to use

  • "Find jobs / open roles." / "Who is hiring for [role]?" / "What is [competitor] hiring for?"
  • "Find companies growing their [domain] team."

How to run

python3 ${SKILL_DIR}/scripts/jobs.py \
  --query "RevOps Manager" \
  --location "United States" \
  --company "Acme Corp" \
  --sources linkedin,indeed \
  --num-results 25 \
  --output ${WORKSPACE}/jobs.json
  • With APIFY_API_TOKEN: runs the LinkedIn + Indeed actors for salary/seniority/full description. Cap --num-results — Apify is pay-per-job.
  • Without it: degrades to a keyless site:linkedin.com/jobs / site:indeed.com search returning title + apply URL + snippet (no salary/seniority).

Actor ids default to common public actors and can be overridden with APIFY_LINKEDIN_JOBS_ACTOR / APIFY_INDEED_JOBS_ACTOR.

Outputs

jobs.json — [{title, company, location, salary, seniority, description, apply_url, source}], deduped by title+company+location across sources. source is linkedin / indeed (Apify) or linkedin/serp / indeed/serp (keyless).

Credentials / env

  • Required: none — the keyless serp degrade runs with no key.
  • Optional: APIFY_API_TOKEN (LinkedIn/Indeed actors — structured fields, salary, seniority; without it, shallower serp search). APIFY_LINKEDIN_JOBS_ACTOR / APIFY_INDEED_JOBS_ACTOR to point at specific actors.

Notes & edge cases

  • This sources raw jobs; for budget-signal scoring + outreach context use job-posting-intent.
  • Indeed actor carries the richest fields (salary, ratings); LinkedIn adds seniority/function.
  • Dedup the same role posted on both boards (the script does this).
  • Apify is pay-per-job — cap --num-results; note cost as optional. The keyless endpoint rate-limits — space calls (the script does).
