Indeed Jobs Scraper — Multi-Board (Indeed + Optional Google, LinkedIn & More)

Scrape Indeed job listings by keyword and location — fast and reliable. Optionally add Google Jobs, ZipRecruiter, LinkedIn, and Glassdoor. Export clean, deduplicated job data with companies, salaries, posting dates, descriptions, and URLs.

Search once and get one structured dataset. Use it to find software engineer jobs, remote data jobs, AI/ML roles, product manager openings, nurse jobs, marketing jobs, and other hiring-market data.

---

What it does

• Searches one or many keywords across your chosen job boards and locations.
• Returns one clean row per job: title, company, location, board, job type, remote flag, normalized salary, posting date, and URL.
• Deduplicates across boards so the same job appears once.
• Filters by remote, job type, posting recency, and location.

Indeed is the default board and returns full results out of the box. Google Jobs uses Apify's dedicated Google SERP proxy instead of ordinary datacenter traffic, avoiding the common Google /sorry/ and 429 response. ZipRecruiter, LinkedIn, and Glassdoor remain optional, best-effort boards and may require a residential proxy.

---

Who it's for

• Recruiters & sourcers — pull fresh openings across boards into one sheet.
• Job seekers & job-board builders — aggregate listings programmatically.
• Labor-market researchers — track roles, salaries, and hiring trends.
• ATS / HR-tech — feed live postings into your pipeline.

Tips & limitations

• Indeed is the reliable default board. Google Jobs automatically uses the dedicated Apify Google SERP proxy and currently returns up to 10 results per search term. Google SERP requests are billed as platform proxy usage. ZipRecruiter, LinkedIn, and Glassdoor remain best-effort boards; use a residential proxy when they are blocked.
• For large or scheduled runs, keep Apify Proxy enabled to avoid rate limits.
• Salaries are only as complete as the board provides; many postings omit them.
• Built on the open-source python-jobspy library.
• Scrapes publicly listed jobs only. Respect each board's terms of use.
