Efficiently centralize and track job posting data by automatically saving key details to Google Sheets. This workflow simplifies data management for recruitment, market analysis, or personal job search by capturing comprehensive job information.
About This Workflow
Never miss a beat in the competitive job market or struggle with scattered job data again. This n8n workflow empowers you to automatically funnel critical job posting information directly into a Google Sheet. By mapping various data points like job title, company name, location, application URL, description, and even application counts, you create a robust, searchable, and shareable database. Ideal for recruiters tracking open roles, job seekers managing applications, or analysts monitoring market trends, this automation ensures your job data is always organized, up-to-date, and easily accessible for insights and action.
Key Features
- Seamless Google Sheets Integration: Directly append or update rows in your designated Google Sheet with incoming job data.
- Comprehensive Data Capture: Automatically extracts and organizes a rich set of job details including job ID, title, company, location, application URL, sector, description, application count, and posting timestamps.
- Customizable Column Mapping: Easily map incoming JSON data fields to specific columns in your Google Sheet, ensuring data integrity and structure.
- Automated Data Organization: Eliminates manual copy-pasting, saving significant time and reducing errors in data entry.
How To Use
- Prepare your Google Sheet: Create a new Google Sheet (or use an existing one) with column headers that correspond to the data you wish to capture, such as
id,title,companyName,location,applyUrl,descriptionText,postedAtTimestamp, etc. - Add the Google Sheets Node: Drag and drop the "Google Sheets" node onto your n8n workflow canvas.
- Authenticate Google Account: Connect your Google account to the node using n8n's credentials system. This grants the workflow permission to access your Google Sheets.
- Configure Sheet & Operation: In the Google Sheets node parameters, select the "Operation" (e.g.,
Append Rowto add new entries). Then, specify your "Spreadsheet" by name or ID and choose the target "Worksheet Name". - Map Incoming Data to Columns: In the "Columns" section, for each column you want to populate, use n8n expressions like
={{ $json.title }}to map an incoming data field from a previous node to its corresponding column in your Google Sheet. - Connect and Activate: Connect this Google Sheets node to the output of the node that provides your job posting data (e.g., a web scraper, an HTTP request, or a webhook). Save and activate your workflow to begin automatically populating your Google Sheet with job data.
