What is iCIMS and who uses it

By the NanoScrape team - Published 2026-09-02 - Updated 2026-09-02

iCIMS is one of the top Applicant Tracking Systems (ATS) used by large enterprises. Our September 2026 audit of the Fortune 500 identified 31 companies running iCIMS as their primary careers-page platform, making it the icims platform in the F500 by count.

The NanoScrape Career Site Jobs Scraper talks to iCIMS's public JSON API directly (HTTP-only, no browser required) and returns structured job records at $1 per 1,000 jobs. This tutorial gives you the verified list of F500 iCIMS companies plus a ready-to-run actor input to scrape their jobs.

iCIMS URL and API pattern

iCIMS careers pages follow this URL pattern:

URL pattern:  https://careers-{company}.icims.com/jobs/search
API endpoint: JavaScript-rendered SPA (best-effort HTML extraction from initial payload)
How the actor detects iCIMS: pass any known iCIMS careers URL as a string in the queries array. The actor auto-detects the platform from the URL pattern and calls the correct endpoint. Alternatively, pass an explicit platform object: {"platform": "icims", "company": URL}.

STEP 1

Example actor run: first 5 iCIMS F500 companies

Copy this input into the actor's Input tab (JSON editor mode) to scrape jobs from the top 5 F500 companies on this ATS:

{
  "queries": [
    {
      "platform": "icims",
      "company": "https://careers-statefarm.icims.com/connect/login?redirect=welcome"
    },
    {
      "platform": "icims",
      "company": "https://cookie-policy-scripts.icims.com/dollargeneral/careers.dollargeneral.com/script.js"
    },
    {
      "platform": "icims",
      "company": "https://opportunities-northwesternmutual.icims.com/jobs/2952/connect-with-a-recruiter/login\\"
    },
    {
      "platform": "icims",
      "company": "https://internal-amd.icims.com/jobs/search?back=none&redirect=search"
    },
    {
      "platform": "icims",
      "company": "https://allcareers-quanta.icims.com/"
    }
  ],
  "maxJobsPerCompany": 500,
  "includeDescription": true
}
Batch tip: the actor accepts up to 500 URLs per run and processes them in parallel. A single run against all 31 F500 iCIMS deployments typically finishes in under 20 minutes and returns thousands of jobs at $1 per 1,000.

Output schema for iCIMS

The actor emits fleet-standard field names across all 24 supported ATS platforms. Field availability for iCIMS:

Known limitations

iCIMS portals are JavaScript SPAs. Some AWS-WAF-guarded deployments return empty results; browser fallback recommended for those.

Deployment-specific issues: a small number of F500 iCIMS tenants are behind hardened WAF configurations that block HTTP-only scraping. See the Career Site Jobs Scraper actor page for the current 'Known Unsupported Deployments' table and workarounds using the browser variant.

FAQ

How many Fortune 500 companies use iCIMS?

Our September 2026 audit identified 31 F500 companies running iCIMS, representing 6.2% of the Fortune 500. This may shift by 5-15% year over year as companies migrate between ATS platforms.

Do I need a login or API key to scrape iCIMS?

No. iCIMS public careers pages are designed for public consumption by job aggregators and search engines. The NanoScrape Career Site Jobs Scraper uses the same public endpoints without authentication.

Can I scrape non-F500 companies that use iCIMS?

Yes. The actor works for any iCIMS deployment worldwide, not just F500. Pass the careers URL as a string in the queries array (or as a {"platform": "icims"} object). The F500 list in this tutorial is a starting reference for the largest employers.

What is the difference between iCIMS and Workday for scraping?

Different ATS platforms have different API shapes, field availability, and pagination approaches. See our F500 ATS market share study for a full comparison. The Career Site Jobs Scraper handles all 24 supported ATS platforms with normalized output field names.

How often does the actor's ATS support list update?

New ATS platforms are added roughly every 4-8 weeks based on customer requests and F500 migration trends. See the actor README's Coming Soon section for the current roadmap.
