Export public Workable career-board jobs by company slug or URL, including job titles, locations, departments, workplace type, remote flags, posting dates, job URLs, application URLs, and optional descriptions.
Use this Actor when you need a repeatable CSV, JSON, Excel, API, or AI-agent export of Workable-hosted job boards for recruiting intelligence, hiring-signal monitoring, sales research, or job-market analysis.
What Does Workable Jobs Scraper Do?
Workable Jobs Scraper turns public Workable career pages into structured job listing rows.
- Scrape by company slug: use
recurlyfromhttps://apply.workable.com/recurly/. - Scrape by URL: paste Workable company career pages,
apply.workable.comjob links, or currentjobs.workable.com/viewjob pages. - Filter jobs: use keyword, location, department, work type, and remote filters.
- Collect job details: export titles, locations, departments, workplace labels, remote flags, posting dates, job URLs, and Workable IDs.
- Optionally include descriptions: fetch job detail data for description, requirements, and benefits HTML.
Input Example
{
"companySlugs": ["recurly"],
"query": "engineer",
"maxItems": 20,
"includeDescription": false
}
You can also paste Workable URLs:
{
"startUrls": [
{
"url": "https://apply.workable.com/recurly/"
}
],
"maxItems": 20
}
Individual current Workable job pages are accepted too:
{
"startUrls": [
{
"url": "https://jobs.workable.com/view/dHWbxHXmt9g9mfaewTC2eX/full-stack-engineer"
}
],
"maxItems": 1,
"includeDescription": true
}

Who Is It For?
| User | Use case |
|---|---|
| Recruiters | Monitor Workable-hosted boards for new roles and remote openings. |
| Sales teams | Find companies actively hiring by department, role, or region. |
| Market researchers | Track hiring activity across company lists and job categories. |
| Job-board operators | Export public Workable listings into a normalized dataset. |
| AI agents | Run Workable board checks through Apify API or MCP and summarize hiring signals. |
Input settings
| Setting | JSON key | Type / default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| Company slugs | companySlugs |
array, default ["recurly"] |
Workable company slugs from apply.workable.com URLs, for example recurly from https://apply.workable.com/recurly/. |
| Start URLs | startUrls |
array, default [{"url":"https://apply.workable.com/recurly/"}] |
Public company boards or individual job URLs from apply.workable.com and jobs.workable.com/view. |
| Search query | query |
string | Optional case-insensitive keyword filter applied to each title and description. |
| Locations | locations |
array | Optional location filters, for example London, United States, or Remote. |
| Departments | departments |
array | Optional department filters, for example Engineering, Product, or Sales. |
| Work types | workTypes |
array | Optional Workable job type or workplace filters, for example full, hybrid, or remote. |
| Remote only | remote |
boolean | Set to true to keep only jobs marked as remote, or false to keep only non-remote jobs. Leave empty for both. |
| Maximum jobs | maxItems |
integer, default 20 |
Maximum number of job listings to save across all company boards. |
| Include job descriptions | includeDescription |
boolean, default false |
Include public description, requirements, and benefits HTML; an individual detail request is made only when the company feed does not contain it. |
| Maximum run time | maxRunSeconds |
integer, 60–270 | Optional safety budget. The Actor stops before starting unsafe late requests and records pending company boards for recovery. |
Tips For Better Results
- Use company slugs for clean inputs: they are shorter and less fragile than copied URLs.
- Start with a small
maxItems: confirm the board and filters before scheduling large runs. - Use
includeDescriptiononly when needed: it adds larger HTML fields and may require detail requests when a board feed omits them. - Leave filters empty for full board exports: filters can exclude roles if company naming differs.
- Check board availability: not every company uses Workable or keeps old postings public.
- Use multiple boards safely: an unavailable board is recorded in the run summary while the Actor continues with other valid boards.
API usage
Run Workable Jobs Scraper from your own code with the Apify API.
Node.js
import { ApifyClient } from 'apify-client';
const client = new ApifyClient({ token: process.env.APIFY_TOKEN });
const input = {
"companySlugs": ["recurly"],
"maxItems": 10,
"includeDescription": false
};
const run = await client.actor('fetch_cat/workable-jobs-scraper').call(input);
const { items } = await client.dataset(run.defaultDatasetId).listItems();
console.log(items);
Python
from apify_client import ApifyClient
import os
client = ApifyClient(os.environ["APIFY_TOKEN"])
run = client.actor("fetch_cat/workable-jobs-scraper").call(run_input={
"companySlugs": ["recurly"],
"maxItems": 10,
"includeDescription": False
})
items = client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).list_items().items
print(items)

Limits And Notes
- The Actor extracts public Workable career-board data; it does not access private applicant systems.
- Filters are applied locally to the public job title, description, location, department, employment type, and workplace fields that Workable exposes.
- Descriptions, requirements, and benefits are only included when
includeDescriptionis enabled and available. - Closed, removed, or unsupported job URLs fail with an actionable source warning instead of silently producing an empty successful run.
- The Actor uses public Workable job-board endpoints and bounded retries. It does not require a Workable API key.
RUN_SUMMARYandPENDING_WORKin the default key-value store record board-level warnings and unfinished boards when a run is cut short.
Support
Report bugs, wrong output, blocked runs, or missing fields from the Actor page. Include the Apify run ID or run URL, your input JSON, what you expected, what the Actor returned, and one reproducible public URL so the issue can be tested quickly.
Privacy and data handling
This Actor runs with Apify limited permissions and only processes data needed for the documented run. It uses job-search inputs and public job-posting results to produce the output dataset and sends requests to public Workable Jobs pages/endpoints; results are stored in Apify run storage for your account. FetchCat does not use your inputs or outputs for advertising, does not use them for model training, and does not retain them outside the Apify run except for transient support debugging when you explicitly share run details. You are responsible for using the Actor lawfully, respecting the target site's terms, and avoiding unnecessary personal or sensitive data in inputs.
