Who is Coresignal optimal for?
Coresignal's Jobs Data API provides access to job postings via a credit-based API. With real-time updates and both search and bulk endpoints in JSON and CSV, it's suited for teams needing fast access to normalized job data from public job boards and aggregators.
Use it if:
- You need access to job postings from public job boards and aggregators via a simple API.
- You don't require direct job postings from company ATS career pages or proprietary web crawlers.
- You are comfortable with a credit-based pricing model for moderate volumes.
- You don't need large-scale bulk file-based exports via AWS S3 or AWS Data Exchange.
When teams outgrow Coresignal
Once you scale to millions of job postings per month, you may hit limitations with Coresignal's credit-based pricing or rate-limited API. Teams expanding into new markets, building AI models, or needing enterprise delivery options encounter these constraints frequently.
Typical challenges are:
- No enterprise-level bulk delivery via AWS S3 or AWS Data Exchange - downloads limited to API calls.
- No direct jobs from company ATS career pages or proprietary crawlers - relies on public job boards and aggregators.
- No multi-format exports such as Parquet, XML, or RSS - only JSON and CSV via API endpoints.
- Scaling beyond a few thousand requests becomes expensive with credit-based pricing per 1000 job postings.
