Workable Jobs Scraper

Extract structured job listings from Workable.com. This actor uses a direct API approach with Scrapy for fast, parallel data collection, avoiding slower browser automation.

Overview

This actor scrapes job postings from Workable based on search criteria like country and keywords. It returns detailed, structured data for each job listing, including salary, company information, remote status, and full descriptions. It's built for speed and reliability, designed for integration into data pipelines or job aggregation platforms.

• Detailed data extraction: Captures comprehensive job details:
  • Job title, ID, and URL
  • Company name, logo, and location
  • Full job description (HTML)
  • Salary range, currency, and type (e.g., monthly)
  • Job type (e.g., Full-time) and remote status
  • Job category
• Search filtering: Narrow results by country and specific keywords.
• Pagination & limits: Supports custom limits on the number of items scraped (maxItems).
• Structured output: Returns clean JSON, making it easy to parse and integrate.
