# LinkedIn Search Jobs API (https://www.socialcrawl.dev/platforms/linkedin/search-jobs)

> Search LinkedIn jobs, normalised to the SocialCrawl schema.

TL;DR: `GET /v1/linkedin/search/jobs` costs 10 credits per call and returns SocialCrawl's unified JSON schema. Single x-api-key auth, 100 free credits on signup.

## Parameters

| Parameter | Required | Description |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `query` | yes | Search keyword. |
| `page` | no | 1-based page number. Defaults to 1. |
| `date_posted` | no | How recently the job was listed. One of `anytime`, `past_24_hours`, `past_week`, `past_month`. Note the job lanes use `past_24_hours` while /v1/linkedin/search/posts uses `past_24h`; they are different upstream vocabularies and are not interchangeable. (anytime \| past_24_hours \| past_week \| past_month) |
| `experience_level` | no | Required seniority for the role. (internship \| entry_level \| associate \| mid_senior \| director \| executive) |
| `job_type` | no | Contract type for the role. (full_time \| part_time \| contract \| temporary \| volunteer \| internship \| other) |
| `remote` | no | Workplace type: onsite, remote, or hybrid. (onsite \| remote \| hybrid) |
| `easy_apply` | no | When true, return only jobs that support LinkedIn Easy Apply. |
| `sort_by` | no | Result ordering. (recent \| relevant) |
| `company` | no | Filter by company, using a numeric company id from /v1/linkedin/company (`author.id`). |
| `geocode` | no | Filter by location, using a geocode id from /v1/linkedin/search/location. |
| `industry_ids` | no | Comma-separated industry ids from /v1/linkedin/search/industry. |
| `max_pages` | no | 1 to 50 (default 1, or 50 when `max_items` or `max_credits` is sent). Walk up to this many pages in one call and return the rows from all of them. Each page walked is billed exactly as one call to this endpoint (a cached page is free) and counts against your rate limit; its charge and any refund are recorded under the page's own request id, listed in `data.walk.request_ids`. The walk stops early at the last page, or when the request's time budget runs low; `data.walk.stopped` says why (`end`, `max_pages`, `max_items`, `max_credits`, `time_budget`, `page_error`) and `pagination.next_cursor` continues from where it stopped. |
| `max_items` | no | 1 to 5000. Get more in one call: keep walking pages until the response holds at least this many rows, then stop with `data.walk.stopped: "max_items"`. The last page is returned whole (it was billed), so `data.items` can hold up to one page more than this, and `pagination.next_cursor` resumes right after it without skipping a row. Walks up to 50 pages unless `max_pages` says fewer; each page is billed as one call (a cached page is free). Add `max_credits` to cap the spend. A long walk can stop on the time budget first (`"time_budget"`): send the returned cursor with the same params to continue. |
| `max_credits` | no | 1 to 100000. The most this call may spend, across every page it walks. A page starts only while the credits already spent plus that page's price (or, when higher, the most any page of this walk has cost) still fit, so the call never goes past it; the walk then stops with `data.walk.stopped: "max_credits"` and the cursor to resume. Sent alone, it walks as far as the budget goes (up to 50 pages). A value below the price of one page is a free 400 whose `error.details.page_credits` names that price. Credits a row join (`include=`) adds are known only once a page has run, so page 1 is checked against its own price. |

## FAQ

### How do I search LinkedIn jobs with an API?

Send a GET request to /v1/linkedin/search/jobs with a query keyword. SocialCrawl returns paginated job listings with title, company, location, and posted date. No LinkedIn login or Jobs API partner access required.

### What filters does the LinkedIn job search API support?

Beyond query, filter by company, geocode, industry_ids, date_posted, experience_level, job_type, remote, and easy_apply. Use sort_by to order results and page to paginate deeper into the listings.

### How much does the LinkedIn Jobs API cost?

Each page of job results costs 10 credits on the premium tier, no matter how many listings return in that page. Every new account gets 100 free credits with no credit card, enough for 10 searches.

### Can I filter LinkedIn jobs by remote and experience level?

Yes. Set remote to surface remote roles and experience_level to match seniority. Combine with job_type and easy_apply to build a focused feed for a job board, ATS, or market-research pipeline.

### How do I paginate LinkedIn job search results?

Add the page query parameter (integer) and increment it to load the next set of jobs. Start at page 1 and continue until the response returns an empty list, which marks the end of matches.

### Where does the geocode filter come from?

The geocode filter takes a LinkedIn location id. Resolve a place name like San Francisco to its id with the /v1/linkedin/search/location endpoint first, then pass that id into geocode here.
