# GulfTalent Job Listings Across 16 Middle East Markets

Use this skill to fetch GulfTalent data with the Apify Actor `vexaloom-labs/gulftalent-job-listings-across-16-middle-east` and work with the returned rows.

## Before running

1. Check that `APIFY_TOKEN` is set in the environment. Never print it or write it to a file.
2. Build `input.json` from the user's request using the fields below. Keep limits small for a first run.
3. Confirm the search terms or URLs with the user if the request is ambiguous.

## Input fields

| Field | Type | Meaning |
| --- | --- | --- |
| `mode` | one of `search`, `byCompany`, `byUrls`, `salary`, required | What to collect: job search, one employer, pasted URLs, or salary benchmarks. |
| `searchQueries` | array | One or more job-title keywords. Each query is paginated in full and results are de-duplicated. Leave empty to browse all jobs that match the filters. |
| `country` | string | Restrict jobs to one of GulfTalent's 38 markets. |
| `city` | string | Restrict jobs to a city. Selecting a city also selects its country. |
| `category` | string | Job function such as Accounting, Software or Logistics. |
| `industry` | string | The hiring company's industry sector. |
| `careerLevel` | one of `fresh-graduate`, `junior`, `experienced`, `manager`, `director` | Seniority required by the posting. |
| `employmentTypes` | array | Any of: full-time, part-time, contract, temporary, internship. Leave empty for all types. |
| `nationality` | one of `uae`, `saudi`, `kuwaiti`, `qatari`, `bahraini`, `omani` | Only jobs aimed at this Gulf nationality. |
| `remoteOnly` | boolean | Keep only postings GulfTalent flags as remote. |
| `easyApplyOnly` | boolean | Keep only jobs that can be applied for on GulfTalent. |
| `exclusiveOnly` | boolean | Keep only GulfTalent-exclusive postings. |
| `postedWithinDays` | integer | Only jobs posted in the last N days. 0 means any age. |
| `includeKeywords` | array | Keep only jobs whose title, description or job function contains any of these terms (case-insensitive). |

Example `input.json` (the Actor's published prefill):

```json
{
  "mode": "search",
  "searchQueries": [
    "accountant"
  ],
  "country": "uae",
  "remoteOnly": false,
  "easyApplyOnly": false,
  "exclusiveOnly": false,
  "postedWithinDays": 0,
  "fetchFullDetails": false,
  "maxItems": 3,
  "salaryTitles": [
    "accountant"
  ],
  "salaryCountry": "uae"
}
```

## Run

```bash
curl -sS -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/vexaloom-labs~gulftalent-job-listings-across-16-middle-east/run-sync-get-dataset-items" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d @input.json > results.json
```

The call waits for the run to finish and returns the dataset items as a JSON array. If the run needs more than 300 seconds the API answers with HTTP 408; then start the run with `POST /v2/acts/vexaloom-labs~gulftalent-job-listings-across-16-middle-east/runs`, poll `GET /v2/actor-runs/{runId}` until `SUCCEEDED`, and read `GET /v2/datasets/{defaultDatasetId}/items`.

## Output

Each item is one record. Published fields include: `recordType`, `title`, `companyName`, `country`, `city`, `salaryMin`, `salaryMax`, `salaryCurrency`, `median`, `sampleSize`, `postedAt`, `sourceUrl`.

Summarise what was found, cite the record URLs when present, and say how many items came back. Do not invent values for empty fields.
