## What's an Apify Actor?

Actors are a software tools running on the Apify platform, for all kinds of web data extraction and automation use cases.
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.

In JavaScript/TypeScript projects, use official [JavaScript/TypeScript client](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js.md):

```bash
npm install apify-client
```

In Python projects, use official [Python client library](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python.md):

```bash
pip install apify-client
```

In shell scripts, use [Apify CLI](https://docs.apify.com/cli/docs.md):

````bash
# MacOS / Linux
curl -fsSL https://apify.com/install-cli.sh | bash
# Windows
irm https://apify.com/install-cli.ps1 | iex
```bash

In AI frameworks, you might use the [Apify MCP server](https://docs.apify.com/platform/integrations/mcp.md).

If your project is in a different language, use the [REST API](https://docs.apify.com/api/v2.md).

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

For more details, see Apify documentation as [Markdown index](https://docs.apify.com/llms.txt) and [Markdown full-text](https://docs.apify.com/llms-full.txt).


# README

## Job Finder – Multi-Site Job Scraper

### Supported Sites

| Site           | Key              |
|----------------|------------------|
| LinkedIn       | `linkedin`       |
| Indeed         | `indeed`         |
| Glassdoor      | `glassdoor`      |
| ZipRecruiter   | `zip_recruiter`  |
| Google Jobs    | `google`         |

### Input Example

```json
{
  "search_term": "python developer",
  "location": "United States",
  "site_names": ["linkedin", "indeed"],
  "results_wanted": 100,
  "hours_old": 72,
  "distance": 50,
  "job_type": "fulltime",
  "is_remote": false,
  "country_indeed": "United States",
  "export_csv": true
}
````

#### Input Parameters

| Parameter        | Type     | Default            | Description                                      |
|------------------|----------|--------------------|--------------------------------------------------|
| `search_term`    | string   | `python developer` | Job title / keywords                             |
| `location`       | string   | `United States`    | Geographic area                                  |

| `export_csv`     | boolean  | `true`             | Also save CSV to key-value store                 |

### Output

Each record in the default dataset contains:

```
site, title, company, company_url, location, date_posted, job_url,
job_type, salary_source, interval, min_amount, max_amount, currency,
description, emails, is_remote, scraped_at, search_term, search_location
```

If `export_csv` is enabled, a ready-to-download `jobs.csv` file is also
saved to the run's default key-value store.

### Running Locally

```bash
## Install deps
pip install -r requirements.txt

## Create input
mkdir -p storage/key_value_stores/default
echo '{"search_term":"data engineer","location":"New York","site_names":["linkedin"],"results_wanted":10,"hours_old":24}' \
  > storage/key_value_stores/default/INPUT.json

## Run
python -m src
```

### Deploying to Apify

```bash
apify login
apify push
```

Then trigger runs from the Apify Console, API, or schedule them on a cron.
