Overview

Jobs2Careers is a job aggregator API that collects listings from thousands of job boards and employer sites across the US and beyond. It requires an API key and lets you search by keyword and location to retrieve structured job data. The API is geared toward publishers and job site operators looking to embed job search into their products.

Beginner Tip

Request access through the Jobs2Careers publisher program to obtain your API credentials. The API uses a publisher ID and key combination rather than a single API key.

Available Data

Example Response

Illustrative shape only — we were not able to call this endpoint (it requires credentials or exposes no public sample URL), so the fields below show the kind of data this API returns rather than a recorded response.

Common Errors & Troubleshooting

Generated guidance based on this API's documentation, not observed by us. Treat it as a starting point and check against the provider's own error reference.

403 Forbidden / access denied Publisher ID or password is missing or not yet approved.
Ensure you have completed the publisher signup and that both id and pass parameters are present in your request.
No results returned Query or location string is malformed or uses unsupported characters.
URL-encode all search parameters and test with simple, common keywords before using advanced queries.
HTTP (not HTTPS) required The API base URL uses http://, which some libraries block by default.
Explicitly allow HTTP in your HTTP client settings, or check if the provider now supports HTTPS.

Metadata Score Breakdown

Estimated from metadata — endpoint not independently tested

This score is estimated from observable metadata — HTTPS support, authentication model, declared CORS, and documentation reachability — because the API requires authentication or exposes no publicly testable endpoint. The five-signal breakdown is only shown for live-tested APIs.
