About WeWorkRemotely Job Scrapper

Need a reliable feed of remote job listings without the manual hassle? I built this WeWorkRemotely scraper to solve exactly that. It pulls fresh job data—titles, companies, locations, and full descriptions—directly from the source. You can run it for specific categories and it handles pagination automatically, so you get a complete dataset, not just the first page. I use it to output clean, structured JSON or CSV files that slot right into recruitment databases, job boards, or HR software. The real value is in the setup. I’ve configured it with smart retries and proxy support to keep runs smooth, even if the site has occasional hiccups. You can also schedule it on Apify to collect new postings daily or weekly, which is perfect for keeping a job board or internal talent pool consistently updated. It’s become a go-to for recruiters sourcing remote talent and for developers building job aggregation tools, because it delivers the structured data you need without requiring constant manual oversight. Just set your parameters and let it run.

Documentation

WeWorkRemotely Job Scraper

Overview

This Actor scrapes job listings from a single web page on WeWorkRemotely. It's built on a JavaScript template that uses Axios for HTTP requests and Cheerio for HTML parsing. You provide a URL via input, and the Actor extracts structured job data, storing it in an Apify dataset for easy access.

Key Features

  • Apify SDK – Toolkit for building and running Actors
  • Input Schema – Validates input configuration
  • Dataset Storage – Saves structured results with consistent fields
  • Axios Client – Handles HTTP requests
  • Cheerio – Parses and extracts data from HTML

Input/Output

Input: A JSON object containing the target page URL.

{
  "url": "https://weworkremotely.com/categories/remote-programming-jobs"
}

Output: Job data stored in the Actor's dataset. Each item includes fields like job title, company, location (remote), and application link. You can export the dataset as JSON, CSV, or other formats via the Apify console or API.

How to Use

  1. Configure Input: Set the url parameter to the WeWorkRemotely page you want to scrape.
  2. Run the Actor: Start the Actor via the Apify console, API, or scheduler.
  3. Access Results: Retrieve scraped data from the dataset tab or via the Apify API.

The scraping process works as follows:
- The Actor fetches the input URL using Actor.getInput().
- Axios retrieves the page HTML.
- Cheerio loads the HTML for parsing.
- The script extracts job listings (you can customize the selectors to target specific data).
- Extracted data is saved using Actor.pushData().

Local Development

To modify the Actor locally, use the Apify CLI to pull the code:

# Install CLI via npm
npm -g install apify-cli

# Pull the Actor using its ID or name
apify pull <ActorId>

Find the Actor ID or unique name in the Apify console.
