## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are web data automations that power AI and operations. They run on the Apify platform to scrape websites, process data, connect APIs, and automate workflows.
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.

- **AI agents and MCP clients** — the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/integrations/mcp.md) at `https://mcp.apify.com` (remote, streamable HTTP, OAuth on first use).
- **Agentic workflows and local Actor development** — [Agent Skills](https://apify.com/.well-known/agent-skills/index.json) with the [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md): `npm install -g apify-cli`, then `apify login`.
- **JavaScript/TypeScript projects** — the official [JS/TS client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md): `npm install apify-client`.
- **Python projects** — the official [Python client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md): `pip install apify-client`.
- **Any other language** — the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

For usage examples, see the [API](#api) section below.

# README

## Jobstreet Malaysia & Singapore Job Scraper

Extract structured, enriched job listings from **[Jobstreet Malaysia](https://my.jobstreet.com)** and **[Jobstreet Singapore](https://sg.jobstreet.com)** — ready for analysis, reporting, or automation.

### What does Jobstreet Scraper do?

Enter any job keywords, pick a country (or both), and get a clean dataset back in seconds. Unlike other Jobstreet scrapers that return raw, unprocessed text, this actor enriches every listing with:

- **Structured salary data** — parsed `min`, `max`, `currency`, `period`, and annualised figures instead of a raw string like "RM 5,000 – RM 6,999 per month"
- **Auto-detected skills** — 80+ tech and process skills (Python, AWS, Docker, Agile…) identified from title, teaser, and bullet points
- **Experience level** — Junior / Mid / Senior / Management auto-inferred from the job title
- **Work arrangement** — On-site / Hybrid / Remote pulled directly from the listing
- **Completeness score** — 0–100 quality rating so you can instantly filter out low-signal listings

### Why use this scraper?

| Use case | How this actor helps |
|---|---|
| **Salary benchmarking** | Structured `salary.min/max/annualMin/annualMax` fields — paste straight into Excel or Power BI |
| **Talent market research** | See which skills dominate listings for any role across MY and SG |
| **Competitor hiring analysis** | Filter by company, classification, or location |
| **Job alert automation** | Schedule daily runs and pipe results to Slack or Google Sheets via Apify integrations |
| **Academic / HR research** | Clean, structured dataset covering two major ASEAN job markets |

### How to use Jobstreet Scraper

1. Open the **Input** tab
2. Enter your **keywords** — e.g. `"software engineer"`, `"data analyst"`, `"product manager"`
3. Select **countries** — Malaysia (`MY`), Singapore (`SG`), or both
4. Optionally filter by **location**, **date posted**, or **work type**
5. Click **Start** — your dataset is ready in the **Output** tab within seconds

No account or login required.

### Input

| Field | Type | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| `keywords` | string | — | Job search keywords (**required**), e.g. `"devops engineer"` |
| `countries` | array | `["MY"]` | One or both of `"MY"` (Malaysia) and `"SG"` (Singapore) |
| `location` | string | all | English city name, e.g. `"Kuala Lumpur"`, `"Penang"`, `"Singapore"` |
| `maxResults` | integer | unlimited | Cap total results (useful for exploratory or budgeted runs) |
| `dateRange` | select | last 7 days | Any time / 1 / 3 / 7 / 14 / 30 days |
| `workType` | select | all | Full time / Part time / Contract / Casual |
| `sortMode` | select | most recent | Most recent or most relevant |

> **Location tip:** Use English city names. `"Penang"` works; `"Pulau Pinang"` returns zero results.

### Pricing & cost estimation

This actor uses **pay-per-result** billing — you only pay for jobs actually returned.

| Scenario | Jobs | Estimated cost |
|---|---|---|
| Quick test run, last 24h | 30–50 | < $0.10 |
| 500 SG tech jobs, last 7 days | 500 | ~$1.00 |
| Full MY software listings, any time | ~3 000 | ~$6.00 |

Use `maxResults` to cap spend on exploratory runs — start small to validate the data shape before going full scale.

### Tips for best results

- **Benchmark across markets** — include both `MY` and `SG` in `countries`, then group by the `country` field in Excel or any BI tool
- **Daily job alerts** — set `dateRange: "1"` and schedule the actor to run every morning; connect to Slack or Google Sheets via Apify integrations
- **Cap spend on large queries** — set `maxResults: 100` for a quick sample before running the full query
- **Filter by quality** — post-process with `completenessScore >= 50` to focus on listings that include salary and work arrangement
- **Salary-only analysis** — filter where `salary.min` is not null to isolate the ~30–40% of listings that disclose pay

### FAQ

**Is scraping Jobstreet legal?**
This actor collects publicly visible job listings — the same data any visitor sees in their browser. Always comply with Jobstreet's Terms of Service and applicable data protection laws in your jurisdiction. Do not collect or store personal candidate data.
