Job Search: 25,500+ career sites

Job Search MCP: newest jobs from 25,500+ company career sites

An MCP tool that lets Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, VS Code and any AI agent search open jobs straight from employers' own career sites: Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, Workday, SmartRecruiters, Workable, Recruitee, Personio, Teamtailor, BambooHR, Breezy, Rippling, Oracle, Pinpoint and Jobvite.

One plain-language query in ("remote senior python developer in Berlin"), the newest matching jobs out, as compact JSON with the salary, remote status, seniority, posting date and the employer's apply link.

It is hosted: nothing to install or run. The tool is the Job Search API for AI Agents Actor on Apify, served through Apify's MCP server.

Use it without MCP

It is also a plain HTTP API. One call runs the search and returns the jobs:

curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/richiedc95~job-search-api/run-sync-get-dataset-items" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"query": "senior data engineer", "remoteOnly": true, "postedWithinDays": 7, "maxResults": 20}'

Python:

from apify_client import ApifyClient

client = ApifyClient("<YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN>")
run = client.actor("richiedc95/job-search-api").call(run_input={"query": "registered nurse", "location": "Texas", "maxResults": 20})
for job in client.dataset(run["defaultDatasetId"]).iterate_items():
    print(job["postedAt"], job["title"], job["company"], job["url"])

No-code: n8n, Make and Zapier

Get daily job alerts in Slack, Google Sheets or email without writing code.

• n8n: import a ready-made workflow from examples/:
  • daily alerts with every filter, each job sent once;
  • a plain-language daily digest.
• Make and Zapier: step-by-step scenarios with the official Apify app are in examples/README.md.

How it works

• A directory of 25,500+ companies and their job boards is built from public sources and refreshed regularly.
• Every job title of every company is indexed daily, so a search checks all of them in memory in seconds.
• Companies are visited newest matching posting first, and every matching job is fetched live from the employer's career site, so closed jobs are not returned.
• Only public job board endpoints that companies publish for anyone: no login, no personal data, no LinkedIn or Indeed scraping.

A typical 20-job search takes about 10 seconds.

Pricing

Pay per result on Apify: $4 per 1,000 jobs plus about $0.01 per GB of memory when a run starts, so a 20-job search costs about $0.10. There is no subscription to this tool, and maxResults caps every call.
