JobFunnel Banner

Build Status

Automated tool for scraping job postings into a .csv file.

Benefits over job search sites:

  • Never see the same job twice!
  • Browse all search results at once, in an easy to read/sort spreadsheet.
  • Keep track of all explicitly new job postings in your area.
  • See jobs from multiple job search sites all in one place.

The spreadsheet for managing your job search:

masterlist.csv

Dependencies

JobFunnel requires Python 3.6 or later.
All dependencies are listed in setup.py, and can be installed automatically with pip when installing JobFunnel.

Installing JobFunnel

pip install git+https://github.com/PaulMcInnis/JobFunnel.git
funnel --help

If you want to develop JobFunnel, you may want to install it in-place:

git clone [email protected]:PaulMcInnis/JobFunnel.git jobfunnel
pip install -e ./jobfunnel
funnel --help

Using JobFunnel

  1. Set your job search preferences in the yaml configuration file (or use -kw).
  2. Run funnel to scrape all-available job listings.
  3. Review jobs in the master-list, update the job status to other values such as interview or offer.
  4. Set any undesired job status to archive, these jobs will be removed from the .csv next time you run funnel.
  5. Check out demo/readme.md if you want to try the demo.

Note: rejected jobs will be filtered out and will disappear from the output .csv.

Usage Notes

  • Custom Status
    Note that any custom states (i.e applied) are preserved in the spreadsheet.

  • Running Filters
    To update active filters and to see any new jobs going forwards, just run funnel again, and review the .csv file.

  • Recovering Lost Master-list
    If ever your master-list gets deleted you still have the historic pickle files.
    Simply run funnel --recover to generate a new master-list.

  • Managing Multiple Searches
    You can keep multiple search results across multiple .csv files:

    funnel -kw Python -o python_search
funnel -kw AI Machine Learning -o ML_search

  • Filtering Undesired Companies
    Filter undesired companies by providing your own yaml configuration and adding them to the black list (see JobFunnel/jobfunnel/config/settings.yaml).

  • Automating Searches
    JobFunnel can be easily automated to run nightly with crontab
    For more information see the crontab document.

  • Reviewing Jobs in Terminal
    You can review the job list in the command line:

    column -s, -t < master_list.csv | less -#2 -N -S
