SEEK Job Search API Documentation Search public SEEK job listings by keyword, location, classification and work type, for Australia (au) or New Zealand (nz). Each job has id, title, public url, teaser, bullet points, company name, advertiser, classifications, locations, work types, work arrangements, salary text when SEEK shows one, listing time (ISO 8601, UTC) and logo url. Page with page and limit; has_more is true while more jobs exist. SEEK returns at most 500 jobs per search, so narrow large searches by location or classification. A valid search with no matches is a successful response.
