Instahyre New Jobs Alert Monitor
hipersoft/instahyre-monitor
Watch any Instahyre (instahyre.com) job search on a schedule and get ONLY newly-posted jobs since the last run. Runs in Apify Schedules, n8n, Make or Zapier for automated new-job alerts — quiet runs return nothing, so it is cheap to watch a keyword 24/7 and never miss a fresh opening.

Oct 26, 2026Overview
Watch any Instahyre (instahyre.com) job search and get alerted the moment a new job is posted. Point this monitor at a job keyword — python, data scientist, product manager, anything on Instahyre — put it on a schedule, and each run returns only the jobs newly posted since the last run. Quiet runs return nothing, so you can watch a search every few minutes, all day, and only ever see fresh openings.
Built for automation: drop it into Apify Schedules, n8n, Make or Zapier and turn every new job into an email, a Slack message, a Google Sheet row or a webhook.
Why a monitor instead of a scraper?
A scraper gives you everything every time — and you then have to figure out what's new. This monitor remembers what it saw last time and hands you a clean feed of just the new jobs:
- 🆕 New jobs — the moment a posting matching your search goes live.
- 🗑️ Removed jobs — optional. Jobs that were present before but have now been filled, withdrawn or expired.
Perfect for job seekers who want to apply first, recruiters tracking the India tech market, job boards aggregating fresh roles, and anyone building automated job alerts.
How it works
- Give it a search — one or more keywords like
pythonordata scientist. You can also paste an Instahyre search URL from your browser. Leave keywords empty to watch every new job. - Put it on a schedule (e.g. every 30 minutes) in Apify or your automation tool.
- First run quietly records the current jobs as a baseline and returns nothing — so a fresh schedule doesn't dump the whole board at you. (Prefer the full list up front? Turn on Emit all jobs on the first run.)
- Every run after that returns only the jobs posted since the previous run.
Each monitor keeps its own separate memory, so you can run several different searches side by side without them interfering — just give each one a Monitor name.

FAQ
How often should I run it? As often as you like — every 15 or 30 minutes works well. Runs with no new jobs return nothing, so frequent checks stay cheap.
Will the first run flood me with results? No. By default the first run silently records a baseline and returns nothing; you only start getting rows from the second run onward. Turn on Emit all jobs on the first run if you'd rather get the full list up front.
Can I watch several searches at once? Yes. Give each one a different Monitor name and each keeps its own independent memory of what it has seen.
What export and integration options are there? JSON, CSV, Excel and XML, plus the Apify API, webhooks and native integrations with n8n, Make, Zapier and more.
Input
| Field | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
queriesJob keywords to watch | array | Optional. One or more job keywords to monitor on Instahyre — for example 'python', 'data scientist' or 'product manager'. Each run reports only the jobs that were newly posted since the previous run, keeping any job whose title or skills match a keyword. Leave |
maxItemsMax jobs to check per run | integer | How many jobs from the top of the feed to check every run (0 = no limit). The newest jobs appear first, so 200 comfortably covers fresh arrivals for most searches. Removed-job detection is only reported when this cap is not reached. Default: 200 |
monitorNameMonitor name | string | Optional label for this monitor. Each named monitor keeps its own separate memory of the jobs it has already seen, so you can run several different searches side by side without them interfering. Leave blank to derive it automatically from the search. |
emitBaselineOnFirstRunEmit all jobs on the first run | boolean | By default the very first run silently records the current jobs as a baseline and returns nothing, so a fresh schedule does not dump the whole job board at you. Turn this on to instead output every current job as 'new' on that first run. Default: false |
detectRemovedReport removed jobs | boolean | Also report jobs that were present before but have now disappeared from the search (filled, withdrawn or expired). Only reported when the whole search fits within 'Max jobs to check per run'. Default: false |
proxyConfigurationProxy configuration | object | Optional. This monitor runs fine without a proxy and none is used by default. |
