# Jobs & ATS MCP Server - Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, HN Hiring

**Give your AI agent 4 recruiting tools: live jobs from the major ATSes, Hacker News hiring threads, and buying-signal hiring detection. Built for recruiting, talent intelligence, and sales-to-recruiting-teams.** Runs in Apify Standby mode (warm, responds in seconds). **Free to try right now** (in the 14-day price-notice window), then $0.10 per tool call.
## Who uses this
- **Recruiters & sourcers** pulling live roles straight from Greenhouse, Lever, Ashby, and Workable boards.
- **Talent-intelligence teams** tracking who is hiring, for what, and where.
- **Sales teams** using new-hire and open-role signals to time outreach to companies that are scaling.
- **AI agents** building or monitoring a live jobs feed.
## Connect in 30 seconds
The server speaks **Streamable HTTP** at `/mcp`. Add this to your MCP client config:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"recruiting-jobs": {
"url": "https://fetchcraft--recruiting-jobs-mcp.apify.actor/mcp?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN"
}
}
}
```
Works in **Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, VS Code**, and any Streamable-HTTP MCP client.
**Get your token:** sign in at apify.com, then Settings, then Integrations, then copy your **Personal API token**. Paste it in place of `YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN`. The first call wakes the standby server (about 5 seconds); after that, calls are instant.
**Test it works** (replace the token):
```bash
curl -s -X POST "https://fetchcraft--recruiting-jobs-mcp.apify.actor/mcp?token=YOUR_APIFY_TOKEN" \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" -H "Accept: application/json, text/event-stream" \
-d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/list","params":{}}'
```
## What you get
A representative result (clean structured JSON):
```json
{
"company": "airbnb",
"ats": "greenhouse",
"title": "Senior Software Engineer, Trust",
"department": "Engineering",
"location": "San Francisco, CA",
"apply_url": "https://boards.greenhouse.io/airbnb/jobs/123"
}
```

## Why pay-per-call beats a subscription
- **No subscription, no seats, no minimums.** You pay $0.10 per call, only for what you actually use. Comparable tools in this space usually lock you into a monthly plan whether you run it or not.
- **No LLM key and no scraping infrastructure to manage.** Connect your Apify token and the maintained Actors do the work, returning clean structured JSON.
- **Built for AI agents.** Drop-in MCP server over Streamable HTTP for Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, and VS Code.
- **$5/month in free Apify platform credits** on every account, that is 50 free calls every month, indefinitely.
## Pricing
- **Free right now.** Every tool call is free during the 14-day price-notice window.
- After that: **$0.10 per tool call**, flat. No subscription, no seat licenses, no minimum.
- Every Apify account includes **$5/month in free platform credits** (= 50 free tool calls every month).
