I'm building a no-code workflow to extract job listings into Google Sheets

Great use case. A no-code workflow for extracting job listings into Google Sheets usually looks like this:

Simple workflow

1. Source jobs

   • Job board pages, ATS pages, or RSS feeds
   • Examples: Greenhouse, Lever, Workable, Ashby, Indeed, LinkedIn, etc.

2. Extract the data

   • Use a no-code scraper or automation tool:
     • Apify
     • Browse AI
     • Phantombuster
     • Octoparse
     • Make.com / Zapier with scraping/API steps

3. Clean and format

   • Normalize fields like:
     • Job title
     • Company
     • Location
     • Remote/onsite
     • Salary
     • Posting URL
     • Date posted
     • Description snippet

4. Send to Google Sheets

   • Append rows into a sheet
   • Use a unique key like job_url or job_id to prevent duplicates

Recommended no-code setup

If you want something practical and stable:

Option A: Scraper + Make.com + Google Sheets

• Apify/Browse AI extracts job data
• Make.com receives the data
• Google Sheets stores rows
• Add a deduplication step using the job URL

Option B: Direct ATS/API extraction

Many job boards expose structured endpoints:

• Greenhouse boards
• Lever postings API
• Workable JSON endpoints

This is often easier than scraping HTML.

Suggested sheet columns

Use columns like:

• job_id
• title
• company
• location
• remote_status
• employment_type
• salary_min
• salary_max
• job_url
• posted_date
• source
• description
• date_scraped

---

Key implementation tips

• Use a unique identifier to avoid duplicates
• Normalize locations because job boards format them differently
• Rate-limit scraping to avoid blocks
• Prefer APIs/JSON endpoints when available
• Schedule runs daily or hourly depending on how fresh you need listings

---

Example automation logic

1. Scrape jobs from target site
2. Parse each listing into fields
3. Check if job_url already exists in Sheets
4. If not, append row
5. Repeat on a schedule

If you want, I can help you design the exact workflow for one of these setups:

• Make.com + Google Sheets
• Zapier + Google Sheets
• Apify + Google Sheets
• Browse AI + Google Sheets

Or I can help you build a schema for the sheet and dedup logic.
