Glassdoor data API: jobs, reviews and salaries

Glassdoor, LLC (Recruit Holdings) · Jobs & Careers

Glassdoor | Jobs & Careers is the Android app from Glassdoor, LLC, the San Francisco-based jobs and workplace-transparency site founded in 2007 and owned since 2018 by Japan's Recruit Holdings, which also owns Indeed. It brings job search, anonymous employer reviews, salary estimates and Bowls — the professional community that grew out of Glassdoor's 2021 purchase of Fishbowl — into one app. The Jobs tab searches openings by keyword and location; each card shows an estimated pay range, the employer's star rating, Easy Apply and sponsored labels and a save button, and any search can become an emailed job alert. A job's detail screen adds the full description, remote or hybrid work type, a company overview (headquarters, size, revenue, year founded and ratings) and an office map. Company pages collect employee reviews scored for overall rating, culture and values, compensation and benefits, work-life balance and whether the reviewer would recommend the employer to a friend, each with pros, cons, advice to management, helpful votes and any employer response, while the salary screens break pay for a job title at an employer and city into base pay, cash bonus, stock and total compensation. Members sign in with email and a multi-factor verification code or with an Indeed account, and keep a Me-tab profile with their job title, employer, location and employment status. The app serves job seekers, employees and employers in the United States and India: candidates compare pay and culture before applying, employees check whether they are paid fairly, and employers watch their reputation. It competes with LinkedIn and ZipRecruiter for job search, and with Levels.fyi, Blind, Comparably and, in India, AmbitionBox for pay and workplace insight.

Pay percentiles anchor the app's job and salary records. A salary estimate for one employer, job title and queryLocation returns basePayStatistics, cashBonusStatistics, stockBonusStatistics, totalAdditionalPayStatistics and totalPayStatistics, each a list of percentiles given as ident/value pairs in a stated currency and payPeriod, together with the salaryCount it rests on, a confidence level, yearsOfExperience, and the estimateSourceName and estimateSourceVersion that label where the estimate came from. Job-search results carry the same kind of band: each row keyed by listingId pairs jobTitleText and normalizedJobTitle, the employer, locationName and jobCountryId with a payPeriodAdjustedPay range of p10/p50/p90 in payCurrency, the salarySource behind it, the employer rating, ageInDays, and easyApply, isSponsoredJob, applied and expired flags, while totalJobsCount and paginationCursors page through an entire search.

Opening a listing adds the full description, remoteWorkTypes and applyUrl, an employer profile — headquarters, size, revenue, website, yearFounded, overallRating and compensationAndBenefitsRating — and a geocoded address with lat/lng. Employee reviews arrive as paged rows keyed by reviewId, each with reviewDateTime, a headline summary, the reviewer's jobTitle, isCurrentJob and lengthOfEmployment, a ratingOverall score with ratingCultureAndValues, ratingCompensationAndBenefits, ratingWorkLifeBalance and ratingRecommendToFriend sub-scores, free-text pros, cons and advice, a featured flag, countHelpful votes and hasEmployerResponse; filteredReviewsCount and numberOfPages size the full set for an employer. The signed-in member record holds firstName, lastName, emailAddress, a public handle, employmentStatus, userEnteredJobTitle, employer, userEnteredLocation, a jobSeekerProfile link and an isSourcingEnabled flag.

Compensation teams and HR tools benchmark internal pay bands against basePayStatistics and totalPayStatistics P10/P50/P90 for a given employer, job title and city. Comms teams track employer brand across ratingOverall and the culture and compensation sub-scores, and alert when countHelpful climbs on a new review. Workforce-analytics platforms ingest search results with their pay bands, sponsorship and Easy Apply flags, then pull descriptions, remote-work types and coordinates to map hiring demand city by city. ATS connectors prefill a seeker record from the member profile — email, handle, job title, employer and location — after sign-in rather than scraping the public site. openData Studio turns these Glassdoor salary, job and review records into callable open data.

Where teams use this data

Compensation benchmarking
HR and recruiting tools pull aggregatedSalaryEstimates for an employerId + jobTitle + cityId and chart basePayStatistics / totalPayStatistics P10/P50/P90 against internal bands.
Employer-brand monitoring
Comms teams page EmployerReviewsData for ratingOverall, ratingCultureAndValues, ratingCompensationAndBenefits, pros and cons, then alert when countHelpful spikes on a new reviewId.
Job-market intelligence
Workforce analytics ingest JobsSearchAndroid listingId rows with payPeriodAdjustedPay, isSponsoredJob and easyApply, then open JobDetailsAndroid for description, remoteWorkTypes and map lat/lng.
Candidate-profile enrichment
ATS connectors read ProfileByUserId (emailAddress, handle, jobTitle, employer, location) after HubFree login to prefill a seeker record without scraping the public site.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Glassdoor data API cover?

Six call groups: username-password sign-in at /v1/auth/member-login, job search at /v1/jobs/search, job detail at /v1/jobs/detail, paged employer reviews at /v1/employers/reviews, aggregated salary estimates at /v1/salaries/estimates, and the signed-in member profile at /v1/members/profile.

How does the app authenticate those endpoints?

A username-password sign-in returns MFA state (activeMfaMethod, mfaStateId, phoneSuffix) before a session is issued. Authenticated calls then send a session token header together with a mirrored CSRF token header, a mobile-client flag and a client timezone header.

Which job and salary fields are on the wire?

Job search and detail return listingId, jobTitleText, employer, locationName and payPeriodAdjustedPay p10/p50/p90 percentiles, plus easyApply, isSponsoredJob and remoteWorkTypes. Salary estimates return basePayStatistics, cashBonusStatistics, stockBonusStatistics and totalPayStatistics percentiles with salaryCount and a confidence rating.

What employer-review and profile fields are exposed?

Employer reviews return reviewId, ratingOverall, ratingCompensationAndBenefits, ratingCultureAndValues, ratingWorkLifeBalance, pros, cons, advice and countHelpful. The member profile returns firstName, lastName, emailAddress, handle, employmentStatus, job title, employer and location.
