Workday Jobs API Actor

Scrapes and enriches job listings from career sites using the Workday ATS. Provides a database of recent jobs with AI-enhanced data and LinkedIn company profiles, updated regularly.

Overview

This actor accesses a pre-scraped database of job listings from thousands of company career sites that use Workday. Instead of running a live scraper for each request, you query our continuously updated database. Jobs are enriched with AI-extracted details and LinkedIn company data. The system is designed for reliability and data quality, handling over 100,000 career sites.

Key Features

• Pre-Scraped Database: Jobs are scraped in the backend, enriched, and stored. You access this database with a small delay, avoiding rate limits and site changes.
• Continuous Updates: New jobs are added twice per hour. Expired jobs are removed daily.
• AI Enrichment (BETA): An LLM extracts key details (e.g., salary, experience level) from job descriptions. Covers over 99.9% of jobs.
• LinkedIn Company Data (BETA): Jobs are mapped to LinkedIn company profiles, adding employee count, industry, etc. Accuracy is ~99%, covering over 95% of jobs.
• Change Detection: For supported ATS, identifies modified jobs via date_modified and modified_fields fields.
• Domain Derivation: Deduces the company's domain with ~98% accuracy when not provided by the ATS.
• Data Freshness: Database contains jobs posted within the last 6 months.
• Volume Limit: Maximum 5,000 jobs per run. Contact us for higher limits.

How to Use

To retrieve results as XML from a scheduled task:
1. Create a saved task: https://docs.apify.com/platform/actors/running/tasks
2. Create a schedule for it: https://docs.apify.com/platform/schedules
3. Use this endpoint, replacing task-id and apiKey:
https://api.apify.com/v2/actor-tasks/task-id/runs/last/dataset/items?format=xml&token=apiKey
* task-id is the last string in your task's URL.
* apiKey is found in Apify under 'Settings' > 'API & Integrations'.

Input/Output

Input (Actor Parameters):
Configure filters like company, location, or keyword within the Apify actor input interface.

Output:
Returns a dataset of job objects. Each job includes standard fields (title, company, URL, description) plus enriched data:
* llm_extraction: AI-derived details from the description.
* linkedin_company_data: Mapped LinkedIn profile info.
* derived_domain: The identified company domain.
* date_modified & modified_fields: Indicate if a job has been updated (for supported ATS).

Note on Deduplication: Jobs are unique by URL in the database. However, companies sometimes create duplicate listings for different locations. For a unique dataset, perform additional deduplication on title + organization or title + organization + locations.
