Supported Countries for Job Searching

LinkedIn

LinkedIn searches globally & uses only the location parameter.

Indeed / Glassdoor

Indeed & Glassdoor supports most countries, but the country_indeed parameter is required. Additionally, use the location parameter to narrow down the location, e.g. city & state if necessary.

You can specify the following countries when searching on Indeed (use the exact name, * indicates support for Glassdoor):

Argentina Australia* Austria* Bahrain
Belgium* Brazil* Canada* Chile
China Colombia Costa Rica Czech Republic
Denmark Ecuador Egypt Finland
France* Germany* Greece Hong Kong*
Hungary India* Indonesia Ireland*
Israel Italy* Japan Kuwait
Luxembourg Malaysia Mexico* Morocco
Netherlands* New Zealand* Nigeria Norway
Oman Pakistan Panama Peru
Philippines Poland Portugal Qatar
Romania Saudi Arabia Singapore* South Africa
South Korea Spain* Sweden Switzerland*
Taiwan Thailand Turkey Ukraine
United Arab Emirates UK* USA* Uruguay
Venezuela Vietnam*

Notes

  • Indeed is the best scraper currently with no rate limiting.
  • All the job board endpoints are capped at around 1000 jobs on a given search.
  • LinkedIn is the most restrictive and usually rate limits around the 10th page with one ip. Proxies are a must basically.
