## What it is
JobFunnel is a Python CLI tool that scrapes job postings from multiple job websites (Indeed, Glassdoor, LinkedIn) into a single deduplicated CSV spreadsheet. It is now archived as a historical/educational artifact because modern job boards' anti-bot measures broke its scraping approach.

## Use cases
- scrape job postings from indeed glassdoor and linkedin into one csv
- deduplicate job listings across multiple job boards
- track job application status in a spreadsheet
- automate nightly job searches with cron
- search for remote jobs across locales
- filter out jobs I've already seen or rejected

## When to choose
- you need a historical reference for building a job scraper
- a target job board still serves static HTML with simple pagination
- you want an educational example of a Python scraping CLI with YAML config

## When to avoid
- you need working job scraping today - major job boards now block it with bot detection
- you want a maintained tool with active support
- you need browser-automation-based scraping (use Playwright/Selenium-based tools instead)

## Facets
- artifact type: cli-tool

- domain: crawlers, developer-tools, hr
