Overview
Scraping job boards manually wastes hours filtering irrelevant postings. This workflow automates job data collection from Indeed using BrightData, then applies AI to filter roles by your target company or position. Results are seamlessly appended to Google Sheets, cutting screening time and keeping your job search or recruitment data organized and current.
The Impact
- Slash manual screening. AI filters jobs by fit, saving you hours each day.
- Automate continuous monitoring. Scheduled scraping keeps data fresh without lifting a finger.
- Archive with traceability. All matched jobs are stored in Google Sheets for easy access and audit.
- Streamline recruitment insights. Quickly spot competitor hiring trends or target roles.
Who This Is For
- Recruiters gathering real-time job openings from competitors and markets.
- Job seekers who want automatic alerts for roles matching their target companies or titles.
- HR analysts tracking hiring trends across industries and firms.
- Talent scouts monitoring talent pools in specific locations.
How It Works
- Trigger Job Data Collection
- Send a request to BrightData to scrape recent Indeed jobs based on your location and keywords.
- Poll and Fetch Snapshot
- Wait for the scraping to complete by polling BrightData, then download the collected job data snapshot as JSON.
- Parse and Extract Job Details
- Convert the JSON into job entries and extract fields like company, title, description, and URL.
- Evaluate Job Fit Using AI
- Feed each job’s info to an LLM to decide if it matches your target company or role, outputting YES or NO.
- Append Results to Google Sheets
- Format the selected job data and AI evaluation into rows, then append them to your specified Google Sheets tab.
