# Search job postings: agent skill

Job postings API for an agent: it sends a job title and a location, or a company to a catalog endpoint and reads job title, company and domain back. Several providers sell the call, so the agent tries the cheapest first. You pay per call, and a failed call costs nothing.

## When it starts

- find data engineer jobs in Berlin
- what is this company hiring for
- list open roles for sales managers in London

## What it asks for

- A job title and a location, or a company

## How it runs

- looot discover finds the endpoint
- looot inspect shows the price and the input schema
- looot run executes it, billed per call
- Endpoints in order: anyapi-run-linkedin-jobs-thin, anysite-api-linkedin-search-jobs, theirstack-jobs-search, sumble-jobs

## What comes back

- Job title
- Company and domain
- Location
- Posted date and link
- Salary when the provider has it

## Answer rule

List title, company, location, posted date and link. Say how old the newest posting is.

## Difficulty

easy

## How do I search job postings across companies?

Give your agent a title and a place. It runs a postings search and returns one row per posting with the company, the location and the link. Narrow by company or by date to cut the noise.

## Can I get the salary of a posting?

Only from providers that hold it. One returns an average annual salary in US dollars when it has one, and the thin index has no salary field. Check the endpoint page of the provider you use.

## Can I see every job a single company has open?

Yes. Filter by company on a provider that supports it, or search by the company's domain. Your agent returns the roles it finds with the dates.

## Does it include closed postings?

One provider returns the date a posting closed, so you can see which roles are gone. The thin index has no closing date.

## Can I use postings as a buying signal?

Yes. A company that hires for a role often needs the tools around it. Your agent can run the search per account and flag the firms that open new roles.

## How much does one search cost?

You pay per call, and the price depends on the provider your agent picks. This page reads the cheapest live price from the catalog and shows no number when the catalog is unreachable.
