How to test it
Test job postings API on your own sample
Pull a sample. Take profiles your users looked up last week.
Run it. Use a self-serve key, or book a demo and send us the list.
Measure what your users feel. Connect rate for mobiles, bounces for emails, and whether the right person answers.
How do talent marketplaces use the job postings API?
⌄
Let a career-coaching or job-search platform show members who likely owns each open role and how to reach them directly. Search live and historical job postings by company, title and location to spot hiring signals. This page walks through 3 workflows with the exact steps.
What does the job postings API cost for talent marketplaces?
⌄
Job postings API: 2 credits per request, charged whether or not data comes back. 1,000 job search requests use 2,000 credits: about $27 of Starter credits month to month, or about $20 on Pro with yearly billing. Self-serve plans are Starter, Growth, Pro and Scale. See plans and prices
Why do talent marketplaces add the job postings API?
⌄
Reach talent and hiring managers without manual lookups. Products like yours are judged on candidate replies, which is why the cost that counts is per result that reaches the right person. Run your own sample to see what the job postings API returns for your users before you build on it.
How do I find the hiring manager for a job posting?
⌄
Pull matching postings for the member's target titles and locations with POST /job_search/. Find the likely hiring manager and team lead at the employer with POST /person_role_search/ (department, seniority, organization_domains).
What inputs does it take and what does it return?
⌄
You send candidate location or remote preference, candidate metros and candidate target title. You get back work_email, company industry and size, company with open roles and date_featured, from POST /job_search/, as JSON.
Can our users see Forager data in our product?
⌄
Yes, under platform terms. Self-serve plans cover internal use by your own team. Showing Forager data to your users, or passing records on, is licensed separately: talk to sales about volume and which fields your users need to see.
Am I charged when nothing is found?
⌄
Yes. Job postings API is charged per request, whether or not data comes back. Only mobile and email lookups are free when nothing is found, so try your inputs on a small run before you scale.
Can talent marketplaces test the job postings API for free?
⌄
Yes. Create a free account at app.forager.ai: it comes with $5 in free credits and an API key, and there is no credit card to sign up. Run it on records you already know, or book a demo and send us a list: we run it and show you what we find.
How do I find plant managers hiring hourly workers?
⌄
Detect high-volume hourly hiring by site with POST /job_search/ (title, location, posted date). Find plant, warehouse and operations managers at each site with POST /person_role_search/ (role_title, location, organization_domains).
How do you check data quality?
⌄
The test that counts is your own: send a list of profiles you care about. We run it and show you what we find, number by number, so you can measure hit rate and connect rate yourself.
How is a job postings API different from scraping job boards?
⌄
Scraping job boards means maintaining a crawler per site and cleaning duplicates. A job postings API lets you search live and historical postings by company, title and location in one call and use hiring as a signal in your product.
Where can I use Forager job postings API?
⌄
Native in Clay, partner-built in Deepline and called through the API from your own code. Everything else connects through the REST API with one API key.
