Why compare job listings
'Which is better/cheaper/higher-rated' is a table question. Manual browsing gives anecdotes; a structured pull gives you the sortable, filterable census.
Run the Actor over your full target list and the comparison is a group-by away.
The scraper handles the extraction details so a short input list in means usable job listings out.
How does this compare to the alternatives?

How to do it in 3 steps
Step 1: Configure the input
Set the inputs as shown below — roles takes the targets, the optional fields bound run size — start small and scale.
Step 2: Run the Actor
Run it from the console, the API, or the linked saved task. One dataset row is written per job listing.
Step 3: Use the output
Each row carries the fields this source exposes (title, url, description).
{
"roles": [
"example"
]
}Each dataset row looks like:
{
"title": "\u2026",
"url": "\u2026",
"description": "\u2026"
}What to watch for
Results reflect what's publicly visible at run time. Very large pulls take proportionally longer; bound them with the max/limit fields. For hiring pipelines and market research, scheduled small runs beat occasional giant ones.

What if a run returns fewer rows than expected?
The source limits some results; retry once, and widen the query or filters if the target surface is genuinely thin.
