Google Jobs Scraper - Listings, Salaries & Apply Links

Google Jobs Scraper - Listings, Salaries & Apply Links extracts job listings from Google Jobs. Type searches the way you would into Google ("data analyst jobs in Austin"), or paste Google Jobs links, and get every listing with its title, company, location, posting date, salary, job type, the full description and the application links on every site that carries the job. No login, no API key, no browser, from $3.00 per 1,000 jobs.

What does Google Jobs Scraper do?

It reads Google's jobs tab, the aggregator that collects postings from LinkedIn, Indeed, Glassdoor, ZipRecruiter, company career sites and hundreds of job boards, and returns the listings as structured rows. One search returns the jobs Google lists for it; a job share link returns that job alone.

• Search like a person. "registered nurse Chicago", "marketing manager jobs in London", "senior data engineer remote": the same words you would type into Google. Google Jobs links with their filters work too.
• Every field on the listing. Title, company, location, source site, posting date (as text and as a timestamp), salary (text plus min, max, currency and period), job type, benefits, "no degree mentioned", the complete description and the company logo.
• Apply links that work. Google hides application pages behind redirect links; the Actor follows them to the real page on LinkedIn, Indeed or the employer's site.
• Google's own filters. Posted within a day, 3 days, a week or a month; full-time, part-time, contract or internship; remote only; a radius around the place; 240 country editions and 90 languages.
• Only pay for jobs. A search that returns nothing, or fails, costs nothing. A job that appears on several of Google's pages is charged once.
• Built for automation. Run it on a schedule to catch new postings, call it from the API, or connect it to Make, Zapier, n8n, Google Sheets or an AI agent through Apify's MCP server.

Why it is fast and cheap

Google's jobs tab is read through Apify's Google search proxy as a plain page, not through a browser: one request per ten jobs, three to ten seconds each, and the full description and apply links of every listing come on the same page. There is no second page on Google Jobs without logging in, so when you ask for more than ten jobs per search the Actor adds the jobs from Google's own filter pages (remote, job type, posted since) and keeps each job once. Most searches yield 30-60 distinct jobs this way.

How to scrape Google Jobs

1. Click Try for free and type your searches into Searches, one per line, as you would into Google. A city or region in the search works best ("data analyst jobs in Austin").
2. Set Max jobs. You pay per job, so this is also your cost cap. Max jobs per search (20 by default) decides how deep each search goes; 10 reads the plain Google page only.
3. Pick filters if you need them: Posted within for new postings, Job type, Remote only, Radius, Country.
4. Click Start. A search takes about 10 seconds for 20 jobs. Open the Output tab, or download the results as JSON, CSV or Excel.

How much does it cost to scrape Google Jobs?

You pay per job returned, and the price drops on higher Apify plans:

Apify plan	Per 1,000 jobs
Free	$5.00
Starter	$4.00
Scale	$3.50
Business	$3.00

• 3 searches with 20 jobs each (60 jobs) cost $0.24 on the Starter plan.
• A daily schedule of 10 searches limited to new postings from the past day, about 150 jobs, costs $0.60 a day on the Starter plan.
• A run also costs $0.00005 to start. A search that fails, or matches nothing, costs nothing more; a job found again on another Google page is not charged twice.
• The Free plan's $5 monthly credit covers about 1,000 jobs.

Input

{
  "queries": ["data analyst jobs in Austin, TX", "registered nurse jobs in Chicago"],
  "datePosted": "week",
  "maxItems": 100,
  "maxItemsPerTarget": 20
}

Field	Default	Notes
Searches	software engineer jobs in New York	Search terms, Google Jobs search links or job share links, one per line
Location	empty	A place added to every search that does not name one, and used as Google's searcher location
Country	United States	Google's country edition (gl). Google Jobs serves listings in about 80 countries
Language	same as country	Google's interface language (hl). Leave it: forcing English in a non-English country often returns nothing
Posted within	any time	Past 24 hours, 3 days, week or month
Job type	any	Full-time, part-time, contract, internship
Remote only	off	Google's "Remote" filter
Radius (km)	0	Google's "within X km" filter; 0 leaves Google's default area
Max jobs	100	Total across all searches: your cost cap
Max jobs per search	20	Above 10, Google's filter pages are added until no new jobs turn up
Full description	on	Off keeps rows small when you only need the listing data
Apply links	first	Resolve the first application link, every link, or keep Google's redirect links
Concurrency	3	Searches processed at the same time

Google Jobs links keep their own filters: a search link with chips=date_posted:week searches the past week, a share link (htidocid=...) returns that one job.

Output

Each job is one row in the dataset. The Overview view shows the key columns, the Salaries view the parsed salary figures; every export includes all fields.

A search that cannot be read becomes a row with "recordType": "error" and an errorCode instead of failing the whole run:

errorCode	Meaning
NO_RESULTS	Google lists no jobs for the search: broader terms, another place, or a country without Google Jobs
NOT_FOUND	A job share link whose job Google no longer lists
BLOCKED / RATE_LIMITED	Google refused the request just now; run again in a few minutes

Error rows are never charged.

Tips and limits

• Ten jobs per Google page. Google Jobs shows ten listings per search without logging in and no "next page". Above ten per search, the Actor re-searches with Google's own filters (remote, job type, posted since) and de-duplicates by Google's job id; most searches yield 30-60 distinct jobs, a narrow search fewer. For more, add searches: other titles, neighbouring cities, each job type.
• Narrow with the search, not with filters alone. "senior data engineer jobs in Denver" gives Google a better page than "data engineer" plus a radius. Filters then trim it.
• New postings only. Schedule the Actor with Posted within: past 24 hours and the same searches every day; use the id to drop jobs you already have.
• Apply links. Google throttles repeated lookups of its redirect links, so the default resolves the first link per job; "all" resolves every one and takes longer. A link left unresolved is Google's redirect link, which opens the job in any browser.
• Countries and languages. Google Jobs is not available everywhere (not in Australia, Ireland, Poland, Sweden or South Korea, for example): those return NO_RESULTS. Leave Language on "Same as country": a German search with an English interface returns nothing. Outside the English edition Google shows a preview of the description (about 400 characters) instead of the full text, and job types in the local language ("Vollzeit").
• Hit your spending limit? The run stops cleanly at your maximum cost per run and keeps everything it collected. Raise the limit in the run options to get more.

FAQ

Is it legal to scrape Google Jobs?

This Actor collects only data that Google shows publicly, without logging in: job postings that employers and job boards published to be found. Results can still contain personal data (a recruiter's name in a description), which laws such as the GDPR protect; use it for a legitimate purpose and ask a lawyer if you are unsure. Google is a trademark of Google LLC; this Actor is not affiliated with or endorsed by Google.

Can I use it through the API or with Make, Zapier and n8n?

Yes. Every run can be started through the Apify API and returns the dataset as JSON, CSV or Excel. Schedules, webhooks and integrations for Make, Zapier, n8n and Google Sheets are on the Integrations tab.

Can AI agents use it?

Yes. Agents connected to Apify's MCP server can find and run this Actor as a tool, with the same per-job pricing. Searches read like natural language, which suits an agent.

Why did I get fewer jobs than I asked for?

Google listed fewer distinct jobs for the search than your limit (see "Ten jobs per Google page" above), the run reached your maximum cost per run, or it reached its timeout. The log says which, and nothing collected before that is lost.

Does it return job highlights (qualifications, responsibilities)?

Google no longer shows them as separate blocks on its jobs page; they are part of the full description, which the Actor returns in full.
